Recently, the Energy and Commerce Committee of the U.
S.
House of Representatives passed a bill (H.
R.
1321) to ban the manufacture and sale of rinse-off cosmetics
containing plastic microbeads.
According to the Act's definition, plastic microbeads are plastic particles less than 5 mm in size that can be used to clean any part of the human body and play a scrub effect
.
Rinse cosmetics include toothpaste, but do not include any drugs
that are regulated under Section 503(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and are not cosmetic products.
The provisions for manufacturing activities will take effect on July 1, 2017, and the provisions for products entering the interstate commercial market will become effective
on July 1, 2018.
For rinse-off cosmetics that are not prescription drugs, the effective date of the above ban will be delayed by one year
.
