Cosmetic Hazardous Ingredient Right to Know Act of 2025

Increased Ingredient Transparency: Brand owners must provide a full listing of each ingredient, including fragrance and flavor ingredients, in descending order of predominance on their websites (Section 615(a)(1)).

Improved Access to Safety Information: The bill requires websites to include links to the functional purpose of fragrance or flavor ingredients and provides a link to hazard communication safety data sheets for products intended for professional use (Section 615(a)(3) and (4)).

Enhanced Product Labeling: Packaging or labeling must include a full listing of ingredients and a specific statement directing consumers to a website for information regarding health impacts related to certain ingredients (Section 616(a)).

Centralized Safety Data: The Secretary is tasked with creating a master list of hazardous chemicals, which will be posted on a publicly available FDA website to help people identify dangerous substances (Section 616(c)(1)).

Protection of State Standards: The bill ensures that states can still prohibit certain ingredients or implement even stricter transparency and protection requirements than those established by this Act (Section 614(b)(1)).

Delayed Implementation of Packaging Requirements: While website disclosures begin one year after enactment, the required product packaging and labeling changes do not take effect until two years after enactment (Section 615(a) and Section 616(a)).

Burden of Updates: Brand owners are required to revise their website disclosures within 7 months whenever there is an update to the lists of hazardous chemicals (Section 615(b)).
