On April 13, 2026, China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) carried out the fourth dynamic adjustment to the Inventory of Existing Cosmetic Ingredients in China, involving a total of 50 records. Among these, one ingredient, "Saussurea involucrata callus powder," was newly added to IECIC II ; 49 ingredient names in IECIC I were revised.
Ingredient Name Changes and International Discrepancies
For certain ingredients revised in IECIC I, the updated names differ from those currently listed in the EU Cosmetic Ingredient Catalogue ((EU) 2025/1175) and the US INCI database. For example, the INCI name for “谷精草（ERIOCAULON BUERGARIANUM）花/茎提取物” has been revised to “ERIOCAULON BUERGERIANUM FLOWER/STEM EXTRACT” following this adjustment; however, the EU CosIng database and the US INCI database still retain the pre-revision name ERIOCAULON BUERGARIANUM FLOWER/STEM EXTRACT.
This is primarily because the current adjustment is based on normative corrections from taxonomic classification, whereas international cosmetic ingredient catalogues have a statutory lag in their update cycles. For other ingredients with similar discrepancies, please refer to the "List of Affected Ingredients" at the end of this document.
Companies are advised to take note of the following:
- For imported cosmetics containing the above ingredients, the ingredient names on original packaging may not align with those in the domestic Inventory. Attention should be paid to ensuring regulatory compliance during the filing process.
- When exporting products to markets such as the EU and the US, attention should also be paid to the ingredient naming requirements of the destination market to avoid product notification or customs clearance issues caused by naming discrepancies.
- Continue to monitor updates to international cosmetic ingredient catalogues and promptly conduct ingredient name comparisons and label adjustments.
