Consumer Protection on the Circulation of Cosmetic Online

Abstract

-Nowadays many cosmetics are traded online that do not meet the requirements of security, usefulness and quality. This can be seen in the public warnings that have been issued by the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency containing lists of harmful cosmetics. This paper is the result of legal research that analyses the legislation in the field of health and licensing as an effort to control and protect the community. Based on the results of this research study, the government has established regulations and licensing in the field of manufacturing and in relation to the supervision of the circulation of cosmetics and online trading, as a legal protection for quality cosmetics guarantees. This is not yet supported by inter-institutional coordination in relation to supervision, law enforcement and education for the public about their understanding of unsafe cosmetics.
