With the beautiful music you had in this video I could have watched you for hours. Very nice!

Been wanting a good lable video.. i keep making soaps but have not sold too many because im scared of the label laws lol ..thank u

Thank you Gale, I have your book and it is an invaluable tool I go to when making a new product. Your endless reasearch and comprehensive information is greatly appreciated.

Thank you sooo very much for making and sharing this video!!! Very clear and to the point & easy to understand! You're awesome! Wishing you a sweet day*

(July 30 2019) Thanks Ma’am 🌹🌹🌹

Very helpful.

Great info....question....is it ok to list same info one just one label on front of soap? Iris

Thank you so much for that information. I’ve been making soap for the last four years and I’m considering selling. Do you have another video that has insurance information? How do I go about getting it. Thank you for whatever help you can give me!

Thank you for putting this video together. I have two questions that I hope you can/will answer for me. I make soap in South Carolina, USA and only sell within the states. I prefer to sell my soap naked (no packaging). I provide all the information you've listed here, plus ingredients, online as well as printed out when selling in person. I've heard differing things about using ingredients in the name of a soap. So from your video am I allowed to call a soap that contains pine tar, "Pine Tar Soap" or would I have to call it "Soap, pine tar scented"? Also, I don't label my individual bars (no packaging) but I do stamp them with their name. Occasionally I stamp them with one or more of their ingredients. I've read that I can't list partial ingredients, and as soon as you list one you have to list them all. I do list all ingredients online and printed, but I don't do it on each individual bar. Should I not, therefore, stamp a single ingredient in the surface of my Soap? Any help is greatly appreciated.

does melt and pour soap bases fall into this category or would it be considered cosmetic?

Nice info, ty a lot but for what countries does these rules apply?

Can you tell me if this stands in Ireland. ? Very helpful video thank you

Does the front of the soap have to have a label on it or can I place all that info on the back? I sell patterned soap and shaped soaps so would like the customers to be able to see the soap.

Hi there, so if you make soap at home base business and sale it to public? Do we have to register to FDA office to approve ours soap is safe?

Does this apply for Canada? Not listing the ingredients!

What if your soap weights are not consistent? My bars are appx the same size. Pick it up and heft the weight. Does it feel worth $7? Buy it.

How can I find local and federal laws when It comes to soap making. Example would be set up requirements and storage.

Your awesome 👏

Does net wt. include the packaging? --- I hate that they don't allow PO Boxes... I wish they'd change that. I've been stalked before so this is a serious issue for many.

How about if I'm import soap from Thailand the address on the leble should be in Thailand address ?

When you said name must be included ...do you mean your personal name or the business name?

Are these rules the same in Canada?

Marie Gale i have a Question. Do you put warning information on your product so people can't sue you if they are allergic to any of the ingredients in you product? Do you just list this information on your website?

These laws are the same cross the board no matter where you live?

these rules are for america or internationally?

Are rules the same now? I noticed this video was made in 2016

What if the soap is melt and pour? Does it still qualify for the first point you made? Also I have a family member who is allergic to coconut oil and I use them in my soaps. What if she were to get a homemade soap and not know it had coconut oil in it because it wasnt labeled and she ended up hospitalized? How does this work? I would personally label my soaps ingredients like that

If selling wholesale to retailers, can the street address of retailers be used and named as 'Distributors' or 'Sellers'? If that gives them product liability, how can they be indemnified?

If you add mica to soap is it considered cosmetic?

I know this video is old, but here is my question: as online sales grow, aren't people weary of putting their home address on labels if they are a home based business? Is there a way to not do this?

Thanks for posting this video. Does claiming that the ingredients fade age spots considered a cosmetic or a drug?

What about glycerin soap/melt and pour--does it still identify as soap or cosmetic?

Can I put on my label that it is a therapeutic soap? 9-14-19(Sat.)

i have soap in my name do i still have to say handmade soap

Thank you! What does "volatile" mean exactly in this context? What about salt for example? 🙂

Thank you Marie, great video and very informative. I have a question. If the name of your company already has the word "Soap" in it. Are you still required to add the word on another line? It just seems a bit redundant for it to be labeled twice on the front label. Thank you, again.

in Canada, however, Soap is a cosmetic
