In Peru, Colombia and Ecuador, cosmetics are defined as any substance or formulation intended to be brought into contact with the superficial parts of the human body (epidermis, hair and capillary system, nails, lips and external genital organs) or with the teeth and oral mucosa, with the exclusive or main purpose of cleaning them, perfuming them, modifying or improving their appearance, protecting them, keeping them in good condition or correcting body odors.
The previous definition is given by the sanitary regulation in cosmetics, enshrined in a supranational regulation, through Decision 516 of 2004 of the Andean Community of Nations, which was subject to changes and updates through Decision 833 of 2018, which began to govern as of March 2021 and which has the complementary technical regulations, one for BPM, Resolution 2206 of 2021 and another for Labeling, Resolution 2310 of 2022.
