Seeking Clarification on Selling Skincare Products for TheLabon.com on Amazon
Hi everyone,
I hope you're doing well! I’m exploring the possibility of selling skincare products from **TheLabon.com** on Amazon and would appreciate some guidance regarding Amazon’s policies for skincare and beauty products.
Here are a few specific questions I have:
1. **Product Approval**: Are there any special requirements or approvals needed to list skincare products on Amazon? For example, do I need to provide specific documentation like ingredient lists, safety certifications, or FDA approvals?
2. **Brand Registry**: If I’m selling under TheLabon.com’s brand, do I need to enroll in Amazon’s Brand Registry? What are the benefits of doing so?
3. **Category Restrictions**: Are there any restrictions on selling skincare products in certain categories? For example, can I list products like moisturizers, serums, or exfoliators without issues?
4. **Labeling and Packaging**: Does Amazon have specific labeling or packaging requirements for skincare products? For instance, do products need to have expiration dates, batch numbers, or specific warnings?
5. **Prohibited Ingredients**: Are there any ingredients that Amazon prohibits in skincare products? I want to ensure TheLabon.com’s products comply with all guidelines.
6. **FBA for Skincare**: If I opt for Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), are there any additional requirements or restrictions for storing and shipping skincare products?
If anyone has experience selling skincare or beauty products on Amazon, I’d love to hear your insights! Additionally, if an Amazon representative is available, I’d appreciate official guidance on these matters.
Thank you in advance for your help! Looking forward to your responses.
Best regards,
Kashif Mughal

Number one question is do you have the brands permission to sell on Amazon?

These are all important questions YOU have to find out. Nobody will give you a step by step advice. I would first do some days of research on the website of the FDA to learn what authorizations and tests you need.
... lol..... you are on Amazon! Amazon is a self service platform and nobody will give you any guidance...

Most of your questions can be directly answered from the help page on Cosmetics and Skin and hair care which I am linking -->HERE<--
If your skincare products have anything to do with Skin-lightening the help page for that subject matter is -->HERE<--
To learn about the Brand Registry program, there is a great Seller University page -->HERE<-- Amazon Brand Registry is a global service that helps you protect your brand’s intellectual property (IP). When you enroll in Brand Registry, you unlock eligibility for a suite of tools that allows you to more easily manage your brand’s product listings, find and report IP violations, and prevent non-authentication.
You can learn more about category, product restrictions and whether a brand requires a selling application using this help page -->HERE<--
For FBA packaging questions, I am linking that help page -->HERE<--
Please let us know if you require any additional assistance or you may reach out to Selling Partner Support at anytime. Have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely, Cooper_Amazon
