Cosmetic Safety Assessment for Sweet Almond Oil?

[soapaul]

Hi there. I'm trying to start a UK business selling soaps and body scrubs etc but also raw materials such as pure oils and butters.

I know I need cosmetic safety assessments for soaps but do I need them for selling raw/pure ingredients such as "100% pure sweet almond oil?"

I'm unsure if I need a cosmetic safety assessment for selling this. I plan on writing something like "Aromatherapy/Massage Oil" on the label. Since I'm selling it to be applied to the skin is it classed as a cosmetic, or just a vegetable oil?

Thanks!

If you are selling something for cosmetic use which includes massage oils you are going to need an SA....
