Regarding VCRP
The Voluntary Cosmetics Enrollment Program is a system created by the FDA for cosmetics producers and suppliers in the United States. As recommended by the name, it is optional to register your cosmetics firm or products with the VCRP.
The VCRP is related to items that are offered in the U.S.A. Specialist usage and complimentary example items are not applicable to VCRP.
Benefits of VCRP participation
- FDA makes use of VCRP as a database concerning the manufacturers of cosmetics in the USA. The Voluntary Program provides the FDA with essential information about Cosmetics products, components, and frequency of usage.
- It protests the FDA laws when the "FDA authorized" phrase is on the label. It will certainly be taken into consideration as deceptive or false information, even if the manufacturer is signed up with the FDA Voluntary Cosmetics Registration Program. Labels having false statements will cause the misbranding of the item.
- It is against the FDA Act when an item label claims therapeutic qualities. If a product is promoted with insurance claims of therapy or condition prevention, the FDA will consider this item as a drug.
