The full name of CPNP is The Cosmetics Products Notification Portal, which certifies all EU cosmetic products exported. The Beauty Product Notification Portal (CPNP) is an online notification system for submitting certain technical conformity information related to cosmetic products. It is to implement Decree No./2009 (EC) on Cosmetics, which aims to unify the 28 EU member states and 4 EFTA countries.

1. What is cosmetics?

These products are often used to cleanse and beautify human beauty products. Examples are deodorants, shampoos, shampoos, hair dyes, toothpastes and cosmetics.

The legal definition means any substance or mixture intended to come into contact with the external parts of the human body (epidermis, hair system, nails, lips and external genitalia) or the teeth and oral mucosa. Wash them, use them for incense, dress them up, keep them fresh, keep them in a good environment, or improve body odor.

The main products are: liquid foundation, makeup remover, lipstick, antiperspirant, perfume, hair dye, nail polish, etc.

Note: Products intended for ingestion, inhalation, injection or implantation into the human body are not cosmetic.

2. Nanomaterial products

CPNP also includes a separate module (Article 16) for cosmetic products containing nanomaterials.

However, with regard to notification of products containing nanomaterials (Article 16), the product must be notified 6 months before it is placed on the EU market.

In other words, if the product contains nanotechnology or nanomaterials and needs to be exported to EU member states, the CPNP must be registered 6 months in advance.
