Halal Cosmetics Enquiry and Validity

Halal formulation assessment, cosmetic safety documentation and notification duties are separate matters. Check cosmetics scope in the HAK register separately from food status.

Check the certified products, not just the logo

A brand receives a certificate for one formulation but places its logo on a new perfumed variant. Compare product list, formula identity, sites, issuer status and permitted mark use before making that claim. The old decision does not automatically cover the new carrier. Cosmetic safety and market notification remain separate; a halal logo is not a therapeutic or safety approval.

Programme conditions and worked assessment

Example: A brand uses a body's food-programme logo to claim its cosmetics are approved too. Verify the actual cosmetics programme, current status and scope annex. Identify which products the formula and supplier evidence covers. An INCI name alone does not explain origin. Halal conformity is not a safety or therapeutic guarantee. Documents delivered to a consultant do not add products to a certificate or authorise a logo. The brand must reconcile the actual issuer and product list rather than relying on the organisation's familiar name.

Evidence and authority boundary

HAK accredits the body; the actual issuer decides product conformity. A name in a register does not establish every programme's authority for Kayra/QRS or another entity.
