Cosmetic Product Safety Reports (CPSR) for Beauty Products (Single Product)

Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) for a Single Beauty Product

Under the UK Cosmetic Regulation 2020 (SI 2020/1466) and EU Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, every cosmetic, beauty and personal-care product needs a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) before it can reach the market. A CPSR confirms that your formulation is safe for human use, that its ingredients are compliant, and that there is adequate toxicological evidence behind it. This single-product CPSR is the focused, cost-effective route to market for one formulation — a cream, serum, lip product, haircare or skincare preparation — assessed against SCCS criteria and the relevant annexes across every ingredient, concentration and exposure scenario.

What your single-product CPSR assesses

Your CPSR is an in-depth safety evaluation of one cosmetic formulation, prepared by an assessor qualified in cosmetic toxicology, formulation chemistry and EU/UK safety law. It includes, but is not limited to:

• Ingredient-by-ingredient toxicological review. Each ingredient is identified by INCI name, CAS and EC number, then screened against Annex II (prohibited), Annex III (restricted) and Annexes IV–VI (permitted colourants, preservatives and UV filters).
• Margin of Safety (MoS) calculation. A quantitative risk analysis built from exposure, concentration and the NOAEL (No Observed Adverse Effect Level).
• Allergen and fragrance review. Declared allergens checked against Annex III and current SCCS guidance.
• Physico-chemical data assessment. Formulation type, product stability and packaging compatibility.
• Toxicological profile and safety conclusion. A signed statement from the assessor confirming safe conditions of use and compliance.
• PIF-ready documentation. All sections prepared to Annex I — Part A and Part B.
  

Your CPSR deliverables

Your completed report is supplied ready for inclusion in the PIF, to the Annex I specification, in two parts:

Part A — Cosmetic Product Safety Information:

• Quantitative and qualitative formulation data.
• Physico-chemical characteristics and stability over time.
• Microbiological quality.
• Impurities, traces and packaging material.
• Exposure and toxicological profile of the ingredients.
  

Part B — Cosmetic Product Safety Assessment:

• The Safety Assessor's conclusion.
• Margin of Safety calculations.
• Conditions of use and labelling.
• A signed compliance statement by a qualified toxicologist.
• Plus a digital compliance certificate confirming your product meets UK/EU cosmetic safety law. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) can be provided alongside your CPSR as complimentary support (SDS cost not included in the CPSR price).
  

Legal framework

Your CPSR is prepared in line with:

• Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 — CPSR Parts A & B under Annex I.
• UK Cosmetic Regulation 2020 (SI 2020/1466) — retained EU legislation governing the GB market.
• SCCS Notes of Guidance (10th Revision) — safety evaluation, exposure assessment and toxicological thresholds.
• Annexes II–VI — prohibited substances (II), restricted substances (III) and permitted colourants, preservatives and UV filters (IV–VI).
• Under Article 10, your CPSR is signed off as market-safe by a qualified Safety Assessor. Your Responsible Person must keep it in the PIF and make it available to enforcement authorities or the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) on request.
