Cosmetic Regulatory Compliance for the UK, EU & United States
If you manufacture, import or place cosmetic products on the UK, EU or US market, regulatory compliance determines whether your products can be legally sold.
Launch and maintain cosmetic products compliantly in the UK, EU and United States
Annel acts as a regulatory partner for cosmetic brands, managing legal market access, regulatory accountability and inspection-ready documentation across multiple jurisdictions.
Request a compliance reviewIf your cosmetic product were inspected tomorrow, would your documentation withstand regulatory review? Most brands discover compliance gaps only when Amazon, a retailer or an authority requests proof. By then, the cost is no longer compliance — it’s lost sales and delayed market access.
