- Summary: On December 4, 2017, Yueyang Bencao Bioengineering Co., Ltd. was subject to an unannounced inspection by the State Food and Drug Administration and the Hunan Provincial Food and Drug Administration. Conducted under the framework of "Key Points for Cosmetic Production License Inspection" and the "Cosmetic Safety Technical Specifications" (2015 edition), the inspection identified several critical non-compliance issues. Main violations included deficiencies in equipment management, such as the absence of status markings on a vacuum homogenizer. Production process issues involved incomplete records for products like Arbutin Stock Solution and Small Molecule Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask, along with a discrepancy between labeled and actual raw materials used. A significant quality risk management concern was the unauthorized use of 1,2-hexanediol as a preservative in the Small Molecule Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask, contravening regulatory specifications. Furthermore, the company failed to update its technical requirements in alignment with the 2015 safety specifications and did not identify potential risks in glycerin. Product labeling issues were also noted, with claims implying medical effects, which is prohibited for cosmetics. The Hunan Provincial Food and Drug Administration is required to direct Yueyang Bencao Bioengineering Co., Ltd. to rectify these problems within a defined period and subsequently report the corrective actions to the State Administration for Market Regulation.
