Before you sell the jar, know what comes with it.

You do not need to become a regulatory expert before you sell a body butter. You do need to understand what makes a product a cosmetic, how claims affect regulation, what belongs on a label, what changed in 2022, and what basic records support the products you make.

Before You Sell Your First Jar walks through those foundations in plain language without turning the whole process into a panic spiral.
