An experiment in labeling cosmetics and household chemicals has begun: protecting ourselves from fakes

The experiment included products such as make-up, hair, oral and dental products, shaving products, cosmetics, deodorant, soap and detergent. The research operator is CRPT (operator of the state labeling system “Honest Mark”). The basis of the pilot labeling project was the gray market, where products with unsafe compounds and increased toxicity were sold. According to the Higher School of Economics, the share of illegal trade in cosmetics and household chemicals reaches 16%.

By the way, don’t worry, this will not affect the prices of the products. Participation in the trial will be voluntary and free of charge for producers; Labeling codes and equipment will be provided to them free of charge. So you can buy your favorite products at your regular price and at the same time be assured of their safety.
