A personal care label is an informational tag stuck on a product designed for personal hygiene or beautification. They typically include several key pieces of information:
- Brand Name and Product Name: This identifies the company that makes the product and the specific product itself.
- Ingredients: Lists all the ingredients used in the product, usually in descending order by weight.
- Directions for Use: Explains how to properly and safely use the product.
- Warnings and Precautions: Highlights any potential risks or hazards associated with using the product.
- Care Information: For some products, this might include laundry symbols or instructions for storage and disposal.
- Contact Information: May include the manufacturer's address or website.
Personal care labels are required by law to follow specific guidelines, which can vary depending on the location and the type of product. However, the overall goal is to provide consumers with clear and essential information about what they are buying.
