Registered in England & Wales with Company Number 11480405. VAT Number GB 318 974 856. The FDA doesn't approve a finished cosmetic product. No matter what some manufacturers might say, their cosmetic products cannot be FDA approved. The FDA only approves pigments to be used in cosmetic applications. Those pigments can be used by any cosmetic company. Neon: although, in the face painting and Special Effects (SFX) world we use this term to refer to UV reactive paints, by definition it is a colorless odorless mostly inert gaseous element that is found in minute amounts in air and is used in electric lamps. Technically our paints are not neon, though they appear to glow like a neon light, and most are labeled as Neon. We applaud those manufacturers that are open and honest with their users about their products and what current regulations say about them and labeling them accordingly.

The future could change, at some point either the FDA will choose to test those pigments if they consider it a public health priority, or the food and drug industry companies could request an FDA approval after following the steps required by the FDA to do so. The first thing we need to do is define some common terms so that we know what we are talking about from the get go.There are many UV pigments in the market, a majority of which haven’t been tested yet by the USA FDA to be used in cosmetics, so according to their regulations, any product using them cannot be labeled as a cosmetic and should not be used as a such. Also, keep in mind the products are OK to use as labeled, on clothes, prosthetics, hair or nails based on the manufacturer's individual claim, just read the label. The fact that the FDA hasn’t tested the pigments yet doesn’t mean that they are in any ways dangerous to the skin. It just means that the FDA hasn’t looked into their safety yet. The good thing is that many companies claim to have conducted their own tests with independent labs and those tests have established that the pigments are safe to be used on the skin, according to these companies.

Kryolan has now launched a new line of cosmetic grade UV face paint colors that are complaint with US and European cosmetic regulations according to them, and we have them available! UPDATE: Kryolan has discontinued their Cosmetic Compliant UV range. Glow in the Dark Paints that are FDA compliant for Cosmetic Use according to the manufacturers Mehron, Ruby Red and Endura all produce FDA compliant glow in the dark face paints (based on their claims). Now that we know what the product is and what the differences are, we can talk about cosmetic regulations. Cosmetic RegulationsAs far as Glow In The Dark paints the FDA has only approved one pigment with such quality and it is a whitish pigment that has a yellow/greenish glow in the dark. There are some companies offering a much wider range of glow in the dark colors, but they do not comply with USA FDA cosmetic regulations, although some do comply with EU cosmetic regulations. According to the FDA, cosmetics are "articles intended to be rubbed, poured, sprinkled, or sprayed on, introduced into, or otherwise applied to the human body...for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance" [FD&C Act, sec. 201(i)].

If a cosmetic product uses FDA approved pigments for cosmetic use (certified or not depending on the specific pigment) and complies with all other label and ingredients regulations, then the product is in itself FDA Compliant. Companies cannot submit a finished cosmetic product to the FDA to get their approval, that is why claiming to have done so is incorrect. Companies can only say that they comply with, meet or follow FDA regulations. Then do an online search for manufacturers of those pigments and see how they look in real life, pictures of them, to see if they match the colors on your cakes.D&C Orange No. 5, No. 10, and No. 11; D&C Red No. 21, No. 22, No. 27 and No. 28; and D&C Yellow No. 7. Diamond FX makes a UV/Neon Violet, Blue and White that are compliant with Cosmetic regulations according to them. Ruby Red has a nice range of colors including: white, yellow, green, pastel green, pastel blue, blue, purple, pink and orange that are also UV and FDA compliant according to them. This is the biggest range of FDA compliant UV/Neon paints available in the market at the moment. Snazaroo also has a small range of colors that comply with FDA regulations according to them as well as Mehron, in their Fantasy FX line and now in their NEW UV / Neon range (all based on the manufacturer's claims). Lab tests from a lab that you can reach out to and confirm tests are real, that prove they tested the pigments and confirm such pigments were present on the product (not a certificate that says that the ingredients presented to them are compliant... there is no tests done with those certificates). These regulations change from country to country, in countries like Australia, face paints are regulated as craft paints, so neon pigments are not an issue. Because paints are sold all over the world, but the USA tends to be the biggest market, most companies label their paints to be in compliance with USA FDA regulations. So, if you are in Australia, for example, the “Special FX” warnings don’t apply to your country, but a company in Australia may still use them. Neon Paints that are FDA Compliant for Cosmetic Use According to the Manufacturers Commonly called 'glow in the dark' face paint, UV or Neon face paints are available in a range of super bright and vivid colours.
