Tabitha said:The FDA does not require soap to be labeled, that is correct.
IF you choose to label it, it must be done correct & if you list even 1 ingredient you must list them all. That means if you write shea butter soap or soap w/ shea on your label, you have listed 1 ingredient & therefore must list them all, INCI, from largest to smallest qty. Any ingredients under 2% can be in mix match order.
The FDA guidlines are realy not black & white. If someone thinks otherwise & can show me a link I would appreciate seeing it. It is all a learning process & things do change over time as well.

Danielito said:"Contains tea tree oil, which is reputed to have antibacterial properties".... etc.
cdwinsby said:From what I understand, even statements like that will put the soap into the cosmetic or drug catagory. It implies that the soap may do something more than just wash. I'm not 100% positive on that though.
