Face make-up has changed. Foundations now promise SPF, skin tints contain serums, and shade ranges run to 40 or 50 tones. Every one of those features adds something your Product Information File (PIF) has to cover: SPF testing, nanomaterial rules, skincare-style claims and a colourant review for every single shade. Get it right, and your range is ready for any retailer or inspector.

Our PIF for Face Make-up covers foundation, skin tints, BB and CC creams, concealer, primer, blusher, bronzer, contour, highlighter, face powder and setting sprays. We prepare a complete, inspection-ready file that meets UK and EU cosmetic law, so you can launch with confidence.

Why Face Make-up Needs a Specialist PIF

Every cosmetic sold in Great Britain or the EU needs a PIF under Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and its UK equivalent. Modern face make-up brings some specific challenges:

  • SPF claims. If your foundation or tinted moisturiser says SPF, the number must be backed by recognised SPF and UVA testing, and the label must follow the official sun protection categories. Only approved UV filters can be used, within their limits.
  • Nanomaterials. Nano titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and some pigments must be labelled with "(nano)" in the ingredient list, and in the EU many must be notified at least six months before launch.
  • Large shade ranges. Inclusive ranges mean dozens of colourant combinations. Each shade needs its pigments checked against Annex IV and assessed in the safety report.
  • Make-up meets skincare. Skin tints and serum foundations with niacinamide, acids or hyaluronic acid often carry claims like "blurs pores" or "reduces breakouts". These need evidence, and some wording can cross into medicinal territory.
  • Multi-use products. Lip and cheek tints, all-over sticks and eye-safe highlighters must meet the rules for every area they're used on, including stricter colourant rules for lips and eyes.

We cover all of this in one clear, organised file.

What's Included in Your Face Make-up PIF

  • Product description: product name, type, intended areas of use, full shade list and finish, clearly linked to each SKU.
  • Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR): Parts A and B, cross-referenced from your safety assessment, covering every shade in the range.
  • Shade-by-shade colourant review: every pigment, pearl and effect ingredient checked against Annex IV for each area of use.
  • SPF and UV filter documentation: SPF and UVA test reports, UV filter concentrations checked against Annex VI, and labelling matched to the official categories.
  • Nanomaterial review: identification of nano-form ingredients, correct "(nano)" labelling and notification status.
  • Microbiological and stability evidence: challenge test results for liquid and cream formats, stability data and packaging compatibility for pumps, droppers and cushions.
  • Manufacturing method and GMP statement: emulsifying, milling, pressing, pouring and filling processes documented in line with ISO 22716.
  • Claims substantiation: evidence behind wording like "full coverage", "24-hour wear", "transfer-proof", "non-comedogenic", "blurs pores", "hydrating" or "for sensitive skin".
  • Animal testing declaration: confirming testing status of the product and its ingredients under Article 18.
  • One inspection-ready file held at your Responsible Person's address and easy to present on request.

A Product Information File (PIF) is a required compliance file for face make-up products such as foundation, concealer, blusher, and face powder. It contains the product description, Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR), manufacturing and GMP information, evidence supporting product claims, and other relevant safety documentation.


Yes. Face make-up products are cosmetic products, so a PIF must be maintained when they are placed on the Great Britain market. The Responsible Person must ensure the product meets applicable safety and regulatory requirements before it is made available to consumers.


A face make-up PIF generally includes the product description, CPSR, formulation and ingredient information, manufacturing and GMP details, evidence supporting cosmetic claims, and relevant safety documentation. The PIF should be updated whenever important product or safety information changes.


Yes. Before a cosmetic face make-up product is made available to consumers in Great Britain, its safety must be assessed by a qualified safety assessor. The resulting CPSR forms an essential part of the PIF and considers the product's ingredients, intended use, exposure, and other relevant safety factors.


It depends on the formulations and product characteristics. Different shades may contain different colourants, pigments, or other ingredients. The products must be appropriately assessed, and significant formulation differences may require separate or updated PIF documentation.


Typically, you will need the complete formulation, ingredient details and concentrations, product description, intended use, packaging and label information, manufacturing details, and relevant safety documentation. Accurate formulation information is particularly important for assessing colourants, pigments, preservatives, and other ingredients.


For Great Britain, the PIF must be retained for 10 years after the last batch of the cosmetic product was placed on the market. It should also remain up to date throughout the relevant period and be readily accessible to the appropriate authorities when required.
