"In November 2009 the member states of the European Union (EU) agreed to recast some 55 directives relating to cosmetics into a single regulation on cosmetic products that is intended, among other things, to streamline human safety requirements and increase transparency. The adoption of this regulation is significant, not least because it is the first piece of national or supranational legislation to incorporate rules relating specifically to the use of nanomaterials in any products."
