On March 7, the official website of the State Food and Drug Administration released "Correct Understanding of children's cosmetics logo "Little Golden Shield"", the article pointed out that in December 2021, the State Food and Drug Administration issued the children's cosmetics logo "Little Golden Shield", aiming to improve the recognition of children's cosmetics and protect consumers' right to know. However, some operators link the logo with publicity such as obtaining national approval and quality certification, and intentionally confuse the meaning of "small golden shield", so they list 3 reminders.
Children's cosmetics logo "Little Golden Shield"
First, "Little Golden Shield" is not a product quality certification mark. It is a distinguishing mark that distinguishes children's cosmetics from adult cosmetics, disinfection products, toys and other confusing products, and non-children's cosmetics must not be marked with this mark, but it does not mean that the product has been approved by the regulatory authorities or certified for quality and safety.
Second, "Little Golden Shield" is intended to express that through the efforts of all parties, we will continuously improve the quality and safety of children's cosmetics and protect and care for the healthy growth of children. Emphasize the firm determination to safeguard the healthy growth of children.
Third, please pay attention to the "Little Golden Shield" when purchasing children's cosmetics. According to the Provisions on the Supervision and Administration of Children's Cosmetics, from May 1, 2022, children's cosmetics that apply for registration or filing must be marked with "Little Golden Shield"; previously applied for registration should complete the product label update before May 1, 2023. This means that children's cosmetics produced or imported after May 1, 2023 will all be labeled as "Little Golden Shield".
