Understand the Importance of Testing Your Products

Cosmetic and pharmaceutical products that reach consumers go through several evaluations to avoid the occurrence of unwanted effects, such as allergy and irritation. Product testing should be done by manufacturerers to offer a safe product to consumers, following guidelines recommended by regulatory agencies, such as the FDA, or by country-specific legislation.
