A finished-product INCI list alone is not sufficient for vegan conformity. Starting materials, processing aids, carriers and parties controlled during manufacture may all require review. Because criteria vary between schemes, the current requirements of the selected mark must be defined in the file.
Why does this decision question matter?
A percentage or technical classification is more than a spreadsheet calculation. Active content, water, carrier and processed fractions must be separated under one consistent method.
What should the evidence file contain?
A single declaration is not enough. The review becomes meaningful when the following records identify the same product, formula version and supply chain:
- Controlling Fragrances, Colourants and Shimmer Ingredients in Vegan Cosmetics · current formula, INCI list and raw-material specifications
- A percentage or technical classification is more than a spreadsheet calculation. Active content, water, carrier and processed fractions must be separated under one consistent method. · manufacturer and supplier origin or conformity declarations
- Calculating a whole-product percentage without separating the material composition. · manufacturing flow, cleaning, batch and traceability records
- Vegan Cosmetics · approved label, packaging artwork and change history
How should it be controlled in practice?
First define the product and target market, then turn the current rules of the selected scheme into a raw-material and process control matrix. Never accept an uncertain input by assumption: verify it at source. Link each conclusion to the formula version and batch evidence.
A percentage or technical classification is more than a spreadsheet calculation. Active content, water, carrier and processed fractions must be separated under one consistent method.
