Introduction

This category covers everything from a rinse-off solid shampoo bar to a leave-on dry shampoo applied as an aerosol or powder spray. A cosmetic product safety report is scoped to your specific format surfactant mildness for shampoo and soap-shampoo bars, scalp exposure for leave-on oils, and propellant/particulate considerations for dry shampoo to help your cosmetic products in the UK and EU stay UK & EU compliant.

What Your CPSR Assesses

  • Full ingredient toxicological review against Annex II, III and V (preservatives)
  • Surfactant mildness assessment for solid shampoo, soap shampoo and conditioner, given prolonged scalp contact
  • Carrier oil stability and scalp-exposure review for leave-on hair oils
  • Powder or aerosol particulate safety assessment for dry shampoo, including inhalation consideration for spray formats
  • Fragrance allergen screening against Annex III for any scented product in the range

How It Works

  1. Share your formulation and necessary documentation send your full INCI list with percentages, raw-material SDS and product label artwork. This necessary documentation must be complete before submitting your product; this is what you'll need to get started, and what's included in your order is confirmed upfront.
  2. We screen every ingredient each ingredient is checked against the relevant UK/EU Annexes and current SCCS guidance, as part of our full assessment process.
  3. We complete the CPSR assessment a qualified Safety Assessor prepares and signs CPSR Parts A & B and builds your PIF-ready documentation.
  4. You receive your file your signed CPSR and supporting documentation are delivered within your chosen turnaround window via our standard submission process, aimed at successful approval on the first pass.
  5. Delivery options: Standard (3-5 working days, included) | Fast (48 hours) | Priority (24 hours). Rush turnarounds may carry additional administrative fees, confirmed upfront see our refund policy for cancellation terms.

Yes — aerosol dry shampoo needs propellant and inhalation-risk consideration that a rinse-off shampoo doesn't require.

Solid, lower-water-activity formats generally need less intensive preservative-efficacy testing than a liquid, water-based shampoo, though this depends on your exact formulation.

Each format has a different exposure model (rinse-off vs. leave-on), so allergen thresholds are assessed per-product even with an identical blend.

It's assessed under scalp-specific exposure modelling like a shampoo, with an added saponification/pH check similar to a soap bar.

The core stability review is similar; hair oil's assessment focuses more on scalp compatibility and less on full-body surface area exposure.

This is a claims-substantiation question, and depending on the active ingredient and wording, may also raise a borderline cosmetic/medicinal product question we can flag.
