General Product Liability is a catchall term for anything that doesn’t have its own set of regulations. Cosmetics do, of course, have their own regulations. But a lot of cosmetic companies also make products that aren’t strictly cosmetics – things like scrubbing brushes, room sprays and false eyelashes, for a few cases. There are a few things that seem to be candidates to be cosmetics, medicines or nothing in particular. Nobody seems to have worked out what intimate products are, for example – and I’ve seen them on the same shelf with different brands opting for different regulatory regimes.
