If I make a lotion from a “Ready to Use” lotion base and I only add color or fragrance, do I need to have the lotion lab challenge tested?
The FDA clearly states that you are solely responsible for producing a safe cosmetic and in this case we are talking about lotions. All Crafter’s Choice Lotion Bases are produced and packaged in an FDA inspected facility. All bases have passed independent lab challenge tests and testing during the manufacturing process. They have been formulated and lab challenge tested to stay preserved with the addition of fragrance and color only, assuming you are following Good Manufacturing Guidelines by using clean equipment. If you are incorporating additional water, oils or other additives we highly recommend that you have your formula lab challenge tested. Look for all WSP FREE Recipes to be challenge tested in 2010. It is our desire to take on the expense so that you know your formulas are safe.
