Ok- aroma therapist suppliers- big question...

[Guest guest]

How are you handling the FDA direction as per your products- as per the

FDA web site- EO's are regulated and considered as drugs. Somewhere on a

list- I was lead to believe EO's were not regulated- but as per the

quote below- it appears they are.

 

Here is the quote straight off their web site:

 

...This principal also holds true for essential oils in fragrance

products. A fragrance marketed for promoting attractiveness is a

cosmetic. But a fragrance marketed with certain " aromatherapy " claims,

such as assertions that the scent will help the consumer sleep or quit

smoking, meets the definition of a drug because of its intended use.

Hi Laura,

 

You can't make claims - you have to word things carefully. You can't

say that your face cream gets rid of wrinkles, but you can say that the

appearance of wrinkles are reduced. You can't say your lavender spray

will cure insomnia, but you can say that it promotes a calm atmosphere,

or serenity, and/or you can give your lavender spray a name like " Sleepy

Nights " . Things like that ....

One thing I learned is to go to your competitors' websites and read how they

advertise their stuff. " Has been traditionally used for... " " Many peole

use this for... " These imply but do not get you in hot water. See how the

others advertise and follow suit.
