THE STATE OF US BEAUTY REGULATION: WHAT’ S CHANGED, WHAT’ S COMING, WHAT MATTERS
3:30PM – 4:15PM | LOCATION: COSMOTALKS B, ON THE EXHIBIT FLOOR | FREE The US beauty landscape is undergoing its most significant regulatory transformation in decades. From the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act( MoCRA) to evolving state-level legislation, the compliance burden on companies has never been greater— and the stakes have never been higher. This session delivers a clear-eyed look at where the industry stands today and what companies need to do to stay ahead. We’ ll cut through the regulatory noise to examine which requirements are already in force, what’ s on the horizon, and where enforcement attention is sharpening. This session provides practical grounding to assess your own compliance posture with confidence.
Walk away with a sharper understanding of the current regulatory environment, where companies may be at risk, and the steps your business can take to ensure your products— and your customer relationships— are protected.
