What the notification says

Cosmetics regulation is primarily governed by Supreme Decree No. 239/2002 of the Ministry of Health, approving the Regulations of the National Cosmetic Product Control System. These regulations establish the obligations of manufacturers, importers and registration holders, as well as the supervisory role of the health authority. However, experience in recent years has demonstrated the need for a specific post-marketing surveillance system that would:-Detect and record in a timely manner adverse events associated with the use of cosmetic products.-Evaluate and manage the risks arising from such events, applying proportionate and timely measures to protect the public.-Promote the participation of the various stakeholders, such as registration holders, health professionals and establishments, retail outlets and consumers.-Align Chile with international standards, in particular with the commitments undertaken within the framework of the Pacific Alliance and other regional integration forums.
