Abstract: This ICR is for a one-time data collection that is part of a broader research study. The broader research study includes these consumer surveys, OMB-approved consumer focus group studies, and cosmetics industry and local regulator interviews (of which there will be 9 or less interviews.) The overall objective of the study is to collect information from consumers to better understand the impact of allergens on cosmetic users. Study participants will be asked to answer questions via a Web-based survey regarding their use of cosmetic products, whether they have experienced an adverse event caused by allergens in their cosmetics, and actions, if any, taken to avoid the allergens. FDA will use the study results to help inform consideration for possible modifications to FDA’s policy on cosmetic product safety.
