Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the general business law, in relation to the full disclosure of ingredients in certain products

AI Summary

This bill requires manufacturers of personal care products sold in New York to provide full ingredient disclosure by prohibiting the use of generic terms like "fragrance," "colorant," "dye," "perfume," or "preservative" without explicitly listing the specific chemical ingredients. The bill defines personal care products as items applied to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, or altering appearance (excluding soap), and mandates that all chemicals present in these products must be individually listed on the product label. By requiring manufacturers to specify exact chemical components instead of using broad, catchall terms, the legislation aims to increase transparency and provide consumers with more detailed information about the ingredients in the personal care products they use. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, compelling manufacturers to update their product labeling to comply with the new detailed disclosure requirements.
