Description Washington’s Toxic-Free Cosmetics Act (TFCA) prevents the manufacture, sale, and distribution of cosmetic products containing certain chemicals that are linked to harmful impacts. If you produce, manufacture, import, distribute, or sell cosmetic products (including through e-commerce), this guide is for you. It explains which chemicals are restricted and when restrictions begin. It will also help you assess your supply chain and determine if these chemicals are in your products.
