Natural
Product Labeling Guidelines
There are no official guidelines established for the cosmetic and
personal care product industry. These guidelines are suggested by the
Natural Ingredient Resource Center. They mirror the organic food
guidelines established by the USDA. Companies who wish to display the
NIRC Truth in Labeling graphic pledge to uphold these guidelines.
Participation is voluntary; compliance is based upon the honor system.
