China National Medical Products Administration Issued Clear Warming For Mascara With "Eyelash Growth" Benefit

It has been for products such as eyelash nourishing lotion and eyelash essence on the market that claim to benefit from making eyelashes "thick" and "long". In its late announcement, China National Medical Products Administration stated that these products usually attach film-forming agents and colourants to the eyelashes to achieve the effect of colouring, thickening, and lengthening eyelashes through physical appearances. The mascara, as mentioned above, is categorised as ordinary cosmetics. The responsible person should complete the product registration before sales or importation and declare that it does not promote the growth of eyelashes.


It is worth noting that the China NMPA also stated in the announcement that there is no "promoting eyelash growth" function category in the "Rules and Classification of Cosmetics Classification" issued by the Administration. Up to now, the China NMPA has not approved any cosmetics that claim to have the effect of promoting eyelash growth.


The "Regulations on Supervision and Administration of Cosmetics" stipulates that cosmetics registrants and record holders are responsible for the quality, safety and efficacy claims of cosmetics, and the efficacy claims of cosmetics should have a sufficient scientific basis. As special cosmetics, hair growth products are subject to stricter supervision by the state.
