A bill which personal products will be watching carefully and indeed lobbying against is Rep. Jan Schakowsy's Safe Cosmetics Act 2010. The bill is concerned with updating cosmetic laws to protect customers against untested products, as well as possible carcinogens and toxic ingredients. The Personal Care Products Council has argued that the bill is not based in science, will be too costly for them and puts an unmanageable burden on the FDA. Instead they propose an alternative plan for "good manufacturing" which is somewhat less stringent but nevertheless an improvement on the current regulatory system.

It is imperative for the Personal Products industry not to lose their consumers' confidence, especially as they are vying for their return from private labels. Thus, a swift resolution of this issue is desirable as the future costs incurred if the bill is passed to law could be significant and long lasting.
