FDA Cosmetics Labeling Claims
At a glance
This is an official U.S. regulatory source for cosmetic-claim boundaries. It is used to keep directory wording truthful, limited, and not misleading.
Best citation use: claim boundary, FDA-approval wording, cosmetic versus drug language, and disease or structure/function claim caution.
What this source is
FDA Cosmetics Labeling Claims is included because Lotion & Oil Care Directory discusses cosmetic products, body-care routines, and wording that can drift toward medical, safety, or approval claims.
What evidence can support
- To support cautious wording around cosmetic claims.
- To separate cosmetic comfort language from drug, disease, or structure/function claims.
- To avoid statements that imply FDA approval for cosmetic warming methods.
What evidence cannot support
- It does not evaluate any SULVI product, warmer, lotion, oil, balm, butter, or formula.
- It does not prove that any warming method is safe or effective.
- It does not define a contact-temperature standard for body-care products.
- It does not support baby, pregnancy, eczema, absorption, or formula compatibility claims.
Citation use
Use this source when a page needs to explain why the directory avoids treatment claims, disease claims, FDA approval wording, or universal suitability wording.
Do not use this source as evidence that a warming method has been tested, compatibility-reviewed, or shown to produce an effect.
