Abstract
Cosmetic testing on humans is similar to clinical research involving the participation of human subjects and is submitted to the international guidelines for good clinical research practice (GCRP) [9, 15]. GCRP is a set of ethical and scientific principles for designing, conducting, recording and reporting clinical trials involving humans. These principles should consider and generally apply to all types of research on human subjects including investigation of physiological or pathological process, evaluation of new diagnostic or therapeutic approach, safety and efficacy assessment of medicinal and skin care product. The observance of these principles, wherever applicable, ensures the ethical, scientifically sound and accurate conduct of the research.
