In the cosmetics industry, compliance can mean one of several things, including compliance with industry regulations, compliance with quality control guidelines such as the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), or compliance with government regulations. These compliance guidelines and regulations are in place to protect companies and consumers through assurances that cosmetics and personal care products on the market are safe to use, have the proper and correct information visible on product labels and packaging, the packaging is free of defects or blemishes, and that the
product is free of physical contamination and chemicals which may be harmful to humans.
