Regulatory & Compliance

Your label is a regulatory filing that happens to be printed in color. Every claim on it is a position you have taken with the FDA and the FTC.

Most brands learn what position they took when the warning letter arrives.

Or when a competitor's counsel writes first. Or when a retailer's compliance team flags the SKU three weeks before a category reset, and the reprint costs more than the legal review would have.

We work at the front of that. Claims get reviewed before packaging goes to print.

Real Industry Insight

The regulatory floor moved under this category and a lot of brands have not caught up.

MoCRA brought facility registration, product listing, safety substantiation records, and adverse event reporting to cosmetics for the first time.

The FTC's Health Products Compliance Guidance raised what counts as substantiation for a health-related claim, and the updated Endorsement Guides reached deeper into how brands run affiliate and influencer programs. The Made in USA Labeling Rule carries civil penalties now.

None of that is exotic. It is the current baseline for a brand on a national shelf.
