Safety Assessment for Body Oil
A Cosmetic Product Safety Report for a body oil — an anhydrous product where oxidation, essential oil content and fragrance allergen totals matter far more than preservation.

Price range: € 150.00 through € 500.00
Prepared by EU-recognised, VUB-trained Safety Assessors.
Covers Part A (safety information) and Part B (expert assessment).
Written for a body oil specifically — exposure, tests and warnings to match.
Anhydrous formula: challenge and microbiological testing usually not required.
Good to know. A safety report is mandatory, but it is not the whole job. To place your body oil on the EU market you also need a CPNP notification and an EU Responsible Person — we handle both.
EU-recognised assessors
Signed by qualified, VUB-trained Safety Assessors.
Part A + Part B
Structured exactly to Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009.
Right-sized testing
Anhydrous formulas skip tests they do not need.

Safety assessment for a body oil
A body oil is the simplest cosmetic there is on paper and one of the easiest to get wrong on the label. There is no water and so almost no microbiological question, but oils oxidise, essential oils carry restricted constituents, and natural body oils very often exceed fragrance allergen declaration thresholds without the brand realising it.
You receive a full CPSR, Part A and Part B, with the anhydrous testing rationale documented.
What we look at in a body oil
- Essential oil constituents — restricted substances such as those controlled under Annex III arrive through essential oils, not through the ingredient deck.
- Fragrance allergen totals under Regulation (EU) 2023/1545. This is the single most common labelling failure in natural oil blends.
- Oxidative stability and the antioxidant system behind your shelf life.
- Phototoxicity from citrus oils, particularly expressed bergamot, and whether a warning is required.
- Mineral oil grades, where used, and the purity documentation for them.
What you receive
A complete Cosmetic Product Safety Report in two parts, prepared and signed by a qualified Safety Assessor:
- Part A — safety information. Composition, physicochemical characteristics and stability, microbiological quality, impurities and packaging, the exposure assessment for your body oil, the toxicological profile of every substance, and any undesirable effects.
- Part B — safety assessment. The assessor’s reasoned conclusion on whether the product is safe, together with any warnings or usage restrictions that must appear on the label.
Which laboratory tests you actually need
A body oil is normally anhydrous, and that changes the testing bill. Microbiological and challenge testing exist to address microbial growth, and microbial growth needs available water. We will tell you when you can skip them rather than sell you tests your formulation does not need.
| Test | Usually needed | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Microbiological test (ISO 17516) | Usually not | No water phase — microbial growth is not supported |
| Preservative efficacy / challenge test (ISO 11930) | Usually not | No water phase — there is no available water for microbial growth |
| Accelerated stability and compatibility test | Yes | Supports the shelf life and PAO you print on the pack |
| Certificate of Analysis (physicochemical) | Yes | pH, viscosity, density, appearance and odour for the CPSR |
Testing is arranged through our partner laboratories. If you already hold valid reports, we use yours — you are not asked to repeat work.
Typical required documents
This is what we normally ask for to start a body oil safety assessment. You do not need every item on day one — send what you have and we will tell you what is missing.
| Document | Needed |
|---|---|
| Full formulation with INCI names and exact percentages | Always |
| Raw material specifications and technical data sheets | Always |
| Safety data sheets for the raw materials | Always |
| Finished product specification | Always |
| Primary packaging specification (material in contact with the product) | Always |
| Manufacturing method and GMP statement (ISO 22716) | Always |
| Label artwork or draft | Always |
| Stability and packaging compatibility data | Always |
| Essential oil composition and GC/MS or supplier allergen data | If essential oils are used |
| Antioxidant system and rationale | Always |
| Fragrance allergen declaration or IFRA certificate | If fragranced |
Why order your body oil assessment with Lexora
- Assessed as a body oil, not as a generic cosmetic. Most body oil compliance problems come from essential oil constituents and allergen totals — not from the carrier oils the brand is thinking about.
- EU-recognised assessors. Signed by qualified, VUB-trained Safety Assessors.
- No unnecessary testing. We tell you which tests your formulation genuinely needs and which it does not.
- Transparent pricing. Published upfront and scaled to your formula — no hourly surprises.
- End-to-end route to market. Pair it with CPNP notification and an EU Responsible Person and you are done.
Usually the opposite. Natural essential oils bring restricted constituents and declarable allergens with them, and each needs documenting. Natural is a marketing position, not a regulatory shortcut.
They can be. Expressed citrus oils contain furocoumarins and raise a phototoxicity question. We assess the level in your finished product and tell you whether a warning is needed.
By the number of ingredients in your formula. Select the matching tier above (1–9, 10–24, 25–39 or 40+) and the price updates automatically.
A qualified Safety Assessor — a toxicologist, pharmacist or equivalent professional, EU-recognised and trained at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), as Annex I of the Regulation requires.
No. The CPSR is mandatory but not sufficient on its own. You also need a complete Product Information File, a CPNP notification and an appointed EU Responsible Person. We provide all three.
It depends on the size of the formula and how complete your documentation is. Once your intake is in we confirm a timeline — and if laboratory testing is still outstanding, that is usually what sets the pace.
Yes. The safety report is one component of the PIF. We can assemble the whole dossier, or review the one you already hold.
