Commitment

Your safety is our priority. That’s why our safety assessment process meets or exceeds industry and regulatory standards for baby and beauty personal care products. It’s a process that never ends–we continually review our product ingredients against the latest research and consumer feedback. We believe our process is among the most rigorous in the world and is at the core of our Safety & Care Commitment.

Johnson & Johnson cares about the wellbeing of animals and consequently our Consumer Health business does not conduct animal testing in the research or development of our cosmetic products. We believe our cosmetic products can be validated as safe and effective without compromising animal welfare, but some countries still require animal testing data to approve new cosmetic products for sale. We are investing to advance non-animal testing methods and support efforts to eliminate the testing of cosmetic products or ingredients on animals globally.

Your safety is our priority. Our Safety & Care Commitment means that every product is carefully reviewed and evaluated against internationally recognized standards. Our goal is to go beyond compliance, to meet and strive to exceed regulations wherever our products are sold.

We’re honored to have earned the trust of millions of consumers for more than 100 years. The following core principles guide our Safety & Care Commitment.

The following principles guide Our Safety & Care Commitment. They reflect your highest expectations of us and all that we expect of ourselves.

Good enough is not enough.

We not only follow individual country regulations, but also look to incorporate the best thinking and practices from top authorities for baby and personal care products around the world.

Safety starts with ingredients.

We set a high bar for using ingredients. Our ingredients are screened for quality, manufacturing process, government regulations, published research, and our own ingredient safety databases.

Safety goes beyond the ingredient list.

It’s also a matter of how our ingredients are used, our manufacturing safeguards, how the products are used, and testing requirements for our products.

Safety never ends.

Safety doesn’t end with placing the products on the shelf. Our experts are continuously monitoring and adjusting the process based on the latest research, guidance, regulations, customer, and consumer feedback.

The well-being of animals matters.

Some countries still require animal testing data to approve new cosmetic products for sale, which is why we actively partner with research and advocacy organizations to advance alternative testing methods.

Science isn’t set in stone.

Innovation is ongoing and as a result, we continually check the latest data on our ingredients. When necessary we update our products to make sure they are still safe.

Human health and the health of our planet are forever linked.

Our sustainability efforts help us create products and packaging that are good for people and better for the planet.

We alone shouldn’t be the last word on safety.

That’s why we also seek the guidance of healthcare providers, safety professionals, and third party experts to help ensure the safety of our products.
