I love your channel! As a new business owner for cosmetics, I have been searching for a good channel that is simple enough to understand and get to the point while also being detailed where it matters. I can tell you do all of your research first 🙂
You’ve became my person to follow and go to if I need answers when I get stuck. My products are not in shelves but THEY WILL BE with God’s blessings! This video I’ve been searching for but your channel is heaven sent. Shouts out to you and thanks for the Jewels love ❤️
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH. I’ve just recently started a new business and was a lil confused about the labeling but thanks to you and how detailed your video is I understand now.
YOU ARE A GODSEND. I clicked on this video because I was hoping to find out good label sizes and this video was s much better!!! I didn't realize how much detail my label lacked. Subscribing!!!!!
New subscriber! Just discover your channel and I love how you explain things! Can you please make a video on how you convert your recipes from oz/g to percentages. Thank you 🙏🏽 💗
Hi Charmeas thank you so much for this video it's very helpful. I'm in Canada and reading all that stuff online is very confusing so thank you for your help
Creating my formulations and making a thousand total quantity was the easy part. Figuring out how to label them, lol, not so much. I have 8 items per box and was wondering if I could just put an ingredient/directions card inside so I could label just the front.
Hello!! Thank you for all the good content that you share! Can you please tell me which printer do you use, used or recommend to print product labels (glow labels)? Thank you!
Wow! Thanks for all the information. What do I do if I can’t fit the ingredients on the product. Can I put a card with the ingredients in with the smaller items like lip gloss and small tins of creams? Thanks
Hey Charmeas, I love all your videos! I found you the other day when I was looking for product photography tips and have since watched a bunch of your stuff. I am an independent massage therapist with interests in photography and making personal care items, so your channel is right up my alley. I have been thinking of selling soap/candles/etc in my practice and I have a question regarding taxes, which I thought you may have an answer for considering you have had both service and product based businesses and seem to be very business savvy! I assume I would be required to collect sales tax from the customer for products, but how would that effect my quarterly tax filing and being able to write off cost of supplies? Can all my financials co-mingle, or would it have to be two separate things under the same umbrella business name? Sorry for the boring question haha...
Hi Abby! Thank you for watching my videos! Admittedly, I am not great with tax information. I will be hiring help in January just to make sure I am doing it correctly.
Hey! New subscriber here! 👋 This was an amazing video! I have a question pertaining to placing your address on your labels. How do you do this properly without revealing your home address especially when it's the manufacturing location? Thanks in advance 😊
Hi Charmeas, lovely video you have here. Thank you. My question is, I am looking to start natural skincare body butter and oil, do I need to go through FDA approval before I start? or do I just have to abide by the FDA guidelines?
It is my understanding that you need to put the full make-up of the mica so the Brambleberry Raspberry Mica's inci name would be "Mica (CI 77019), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxide (CI 77491), Manganese Violet (CI 77742)" and I just took that off of their website. TKB Trading labels theirs the same.
Hi! Thank you so much for the informative video. I would to add rosehip oil to my products, but after some research, I realized it only has a shelf life of 4 months. So my questions is, if I add it, and even though the other ingredients in my product have a shelf life of 1 year, do I need to put on the label that shelf life is only 4 months since that's the life of the rosehip?
Hello! I’m going to sell my hair oil in farmers market. This is the first time I’m doing. I did not Register this as a business. How can I put the address?
Hey! I haven't been able to find anything specifying whether the contents need to be displayed vertically or horizontally. I would just be sure that the contents appear "with prominence and conspicuousness so that it is likely to be read and understood (read with ease) by ordinary individuals under normal conditions of purchase. The letters must not be obscured by design, vignettes, background or crowding."
What if I make my products at home? (Which I do,) do I have to put my home address??? Because I don't want to, is their something else I can do? Like add my website instead???? Please help me.
Thank you so much. I have a question about the address. Does the address have to be registered with a business entity, I.e, LLC, in order to be considered a business address? Like if I don't have an LLC yet, and I decide to get a virtual address, can that address be used as my business address eventhough I have not registered it with an LLC yet.
Where can I find the names for the ingredients? Google is telling me to buy the inci dictionary. :( And I’m trying to find the inci name for these aluminum foils. Or would it just be called aluminum?
I usually have to google "coconut oil inci name" (or whatever the ingredient) and make sure the results all look the same haha. But I'm not quite sure for aluminum foil.
Thank you so much for this video! Super helpful! One question, how would I be able to look up if my street address is currently on a city or telephone directory? Thank you again!
Thank you so much for your super helpful video and all links that you provide !!!! I appreciate your time and your information, Charmeas. I have a question, i appreciate if you can help us, For selling bath bomb, do I need to register with FDA or do any test to get FDA approve before selling? I read the info in the website you provide but i am still very confused. I hope you can give me an answer since you are also selling bath bomb on your shop. My sister and I makes bath bomb for fun but want to sell some of it on local Flea market to get some money while going to college. Thank you very much
From my understanding, bath bombs are considered cosmetics by the FDA so they do have to follow the FDA regulations in the links I provided but do not need FDA approval before going to market with the exception of color additives. I do my own testing over several months with different skin types to be sure my products are safe. I'm no expert so if you'd like a definite answer, I would recommend getting in contact with them
I honestly do not know for sure. I know that certain essential oils aren't good for pregnant women so even though it could be organic and considered all natural, I may put that on the warning label. I would consult the FDA site for more info on that
Because alot of ppl stealing there ingredients... I personally want to strt my own hair care line and am thinking really hard about whether I should put the ingredients on it or not..
@@Blackchiney339 the only problem with this is lawsuits. If someone is allergic to an ingredient you’re not listing you could face hella fines. It’s not worth it. Thieves are everywhere but they’ll never be you. Most people that copy aren’t passionate and do not last long in the business.
I’m not quite sure why other people don’t put their ingredients. Even if it’s because people steal ingredients, they don’t have the recipe to know the amount of each ingredient. Technically the only thing you don’t have to put ingredients on is soap but I still put the ingredients on.
Hellllp! I don't know why I can't find videos on how to print my barcodes once they are generated. They are not printing correctly with my Munbyn and the roll does not fit in my Phomemo! Do I need some special software? When I try printing from Windows where I saved them I can't adjust the actual barcode with the text that I added below. What am I doing wrong? I need to print 1.5" X 1.0" product barcode labels to stick to my products so they can be scanned. I am completely new to this. Please help me someone!🙁
Thank you for this extremely helpful video. Quick question, what if I'm starting out at home but dont want to put my home address on the label. Do you know how I would proceed with the address
The shelf life of your whole product would be equal to the ingredient with the shortest shelf life thats in that product....so of you have several ingredients with a 12 month shelf life but one ingredient has a shelf life of 6 months then the shelf life of your product would be 6 months...hope I was able to help
@@charmedhandmade I make natural baths from fresh herbs. I contacted the FDA to question if there is any specific wording, or disclaimers... required on the label.. I also noted that it will not be for human consumption (just saying because ya never know with ppl) I was offered the option to have them create the label for the price as referenced. The price quoted was per label.... I would understand if it was a batch print.
@@charmedhandmade Thanks. I wasn't sure if it was a joke or what??? The representative kept emailing me regarding the label... She called once, I returned her call...she never responded. I reached out several times via phone and no response. I don't believe that I reached a fraudulent company based on the telephone system... Thank you again.
I’m still a little confused about the address section ? What does it mean by if it’s online or print? I’d be using my actual home for my business address, so I’m not sure how that works. Thank you in advance✨

This video was super helpful! I just find it hard putting all this information on small labels. That’s what I’m currently struggling with😭
That’s the same issue I’ve had for a few of my products 😓
For smaller labels - EX:Cirle labels apply most info. to top circle label and the rest to bottom circle label
Thanks for breaking it down I read the fda documents but this is much clearer! 😊
thank you so much for making this video. I didn't know that about the ingredients so I am going to have to change that.

Great lnformation! What Kind of insurance do I need to sell homemade products?
Hello! Thank you! Do you happen to have new advice for 2024?
Does the rule for address apply to lip balms? I never see anyone putting their address on their lip balms on Etsy or any farmers market I’ve been to
Thank you so much 🙏 so do we need get tested our products if its totally natural products no chemicals no preservatives??
Good morning! 🤗🙏
Good morning! ❤️
Thank you!
You're amazing! Thank you so muchh! Blessings
Very informative video. Do you have any suggestions on insurance? I can’t seem to find any 🤷🏾♀️ Thanks 😊
Wow! Thanks for all the information. What do I do if I can’t fit the ingredients on the product. Can I put a card with the ingredients in with the smaller items like lip gloss and small tins of creams? Thanks
It looks like, to be FDA compliant, you will either need to make it fit on the product or have the product in a box with all of the info on it.
@@charmedhandmade Thank you so much! You are an inspiration.

Hey Charmeas! I have truly learned a lot from you! Do you have to put your LLC on your product labels? Thanks!

Thanks love!
Hi Charmeas, lovely video you have here. Thank you. My question is, I am looking to start natural skincare body butter and oil, do I need to go through FDA approval before I start? or do I just have to abide by the FDA guidelines?
These are federal laws correct? Do you have any tips for putting your business address in a directory? Do you know if you can put a PO Box? Thanks!
Hey love. for the Mica powder do i have to state each color i used? or can i just put mica, titanium, iron oxide?

Thank you for your great videos! Did you go to elementary school in Las Vegas? You remind me of a girl I went to kindergarten with.
Hey! I went to elementary school in Ohio and South Carolina
Hello! I’m going to sell my hair oil in farmers market. This is the first time I’m doing. I did not Register this as a business. How can I put the address?

What if I make my products at home? (Which I do,) do I have to put my home address??? Because I don't want to, is their something else I can do? Like add my website instead???? Please help me.
Same issue here!
I used a virtual business address instead of my home address for this.
Great video!!
Thanks!
have you one that decribes the label regulationw for soaps?
How do you get all of this information to fit on your product, label, and what font do you use so that everything can fit and be read
Can I just type my homes city, zip code, and state like you stated in the video and not put my whole home address?
Hey did you ever figure this question out?
Thank you so much. I have a question about the address. Does the address have to be registered with a business entity, I.e, LLC, in order to be considered a business address? Like if I don't have an LLC yet, and I decide to get a virtual address, can that address be used as my business address eventhough I have not registered it with an LLC yet.
What if you're selling them from home? I don't want my home address listed on the soaps.

If all your ingredients are organic with no chemicals added we don't need to have the warning label added? Double checking.
I honestly do not know for sure. I know that certain essential oils aren't good for pregnant women so even though it could be organic and considered all natural, I may put that on the warning label. I would consult the FDA site for more info on that
Is this still a must to do? And is this for certain states or everywhere?
this might be a dumb question but is Beard products considered cosmetic?
So I see a lot of people just putting their logo on product without ingredients or all that other stuff why is that???
