A good scrub leaves skin smooth and glowing. A badly assessed one can leave it red, scratched or stinging. Exfoliating products work by removing the outer layer of skin, physically or chemically, so a safety assessor has to look closely at how strong, how abrasive and how often they're used. Before your scrub or exfoliant can be sold in the UK or EU, you need a signed Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR).

Our CPSR for Scrubs & Exfoliants covers sugar and salt scrubs, coffee scrubs, foaming and cream scrubs, face polishes, lip scrubs, scrub masks, enzyme exfoliants and AHA, BHA and PHA acid exfoliants. Each report is prepared and signed by a qualified safety assessor, written to Annex I of the Cosmetics Regulation.

What Your Exfoliant Safety Assessment Looks At

  • Physical exfoliants. Sugar, salt, coffee, seeds, shells, jojoba beads and pumice differ in size, shape and hardness. The assessor considers how abrasive your particles are, especially on the face, and confirms none are plastic microbeads, which are banned.
  • Acid strength and pH. AHAs like glycolic and lactic acid, BHAs like salicylic acid and PHAs are assessed for concentration, pH and contact time. Salicylic acid has legal limits, and AHA products usually need a sun sensitivity warning.
  • Real-world microbiology. Sugar, salt and coffee scrubs often contain no water, but they're used in wet showers where water and fingers get into the jar. The assessor looks at whether preservation is needed for real use, not just the formula on paper.
  • Lip scrubs. Some lip scrub is swallowed, so ingestion exposure is included, along with lip-safe colourants and flavours.
  • Enzymes and fragrance. Enzymes like papain and bromelain can sensitise, and fragrance and essential oils are checked against IFRA limits and allergen thresholds.

What's Included in Your CPSR

Part A: Cosmetic Product Safety Information

  • Quantitative and qualitative composition: every ingredient, its function and concentration, including exfoliating particles, acids, fragrance and allergens.
  • Physical and chemical characteristics and stability: pH, particle size data and stability, including separation and moisture uptake.
  • Microbiological quality: challenge test review, or a justified rationale that reflects in-shower use.
  • Impurities, traces and packaging: raw material quality and packaging suitability for wet environments.
  • Normal and reasonably foreseeable use: area of use (face, body, lips or feet), frequency and contact time.
  • Exposure calculation: exposure values for rinse-off or leave-on use, as appropriate.
  • Toxicological profile: hazard data and Margin of Safety calculations for relevant ingredients.
  • Undesirable effects: any known reactions to the product or similar products.
  • Information on the cosmetic product: supporting data, including claims evidence where relevant.

Part B: Cosmetic Product Safety Assessment

  • Assessment conclusion: a clear statement on whether the product is safe for its intended use.
  • Label warnings and instructions: sun sensitivity warnings, frequency of use, patch test advice and other required statements.
  • Reasoning: the scientific justification behind the conclusion.
  • Assessor credentials and signature: signed by a qualified safety assessor, as required by Article 10.

A Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) is a safety assessment document that demonstrates whether an exfoliating cosmetic product is safe for its intended and reasonably foreseeable use. It can apply to sugar scrubs, salt scrubs, foaming scrubs, lip scrubs, scrub masks and acid exfoliants. In Great Britain, a CPSR must be completed before a cosmetic product is made available to consumers.


Yes. Sugar and salt scrubs marketed as cosmetic products require an appropriate safety assessment. The CPSR should consider the finished formulation, ingredient concentrations, method of use, exposure and any relevant safety information associated with the exfoliating ingredients.


Yes. Lip scrubs require careful safety assessment because they are applied to the lips and may involve reasonably foreseeable oral exposure. The assessment should consider the formulation, ingredients, exposure, intended use and potential undesirable effects.


Yes. Acid exfoliants require a thorough safety assessment based on the finished formulation and intended use. The assessor should consider factors such as ingredient concentrations, exposure, toxicological information, product stability and any necessary warnings or instructions for safe use.


The CPSR requires information including the qualitative and quantitative composition, physical and chemical characteristics, stability, microbiological quality, impurities, packaging materials, normal and reasonably foreseeable use, exposure, toxicological information and known undesirable effects.


This depends on the formulations and product characteristics. Products with different ingredients, concentrations, intended uses or exposure profiles may require separate safety assessments. If a product is significantly different from another product, a new assessment may be necessary rather than relying on an existing CPSR.


The CPSR must be completed as part of a safety assessment carried out by a suitably qualified safety assessor. The assessor should have appropriate formal qualifications in pharmacy, toxicology, medicine or a similar discipline, or a recognised equivalent qualification. The CPSR should include the assessor's details, proof of qualifications, date and signature.
