What are the standards for beauty devices? The State Administration for Market Regulation and the State Standardization Administration provide further clarification.

In recent years, the beauty instrument market has seen rapid development; however, problems such as false advertising, excessive temperature rise, and low-priced counterfeits have emerged endlessly. To regulate industry development, the National Standardization Technical Committee for Household Electrical Appliances and the State Administration for Market Regulation have both clearly stated the applicable standards for household electronic beauty instruments, promoting the healthy and orderly development of the industry.

　　I. National Mandatory Standards for Beauty Instruments Have Been Clarified, Emphasizing Electrical Safety

　　The Subcommittee on Beauty and Other Appliances of the National Standardization Technical Committee for Household Electrical Appliances clearly stated in a document: Currently, the mandatory national standards applicable to beauty instruments are GB4706.15-2008 "Safety of Household and Similar Appliances—Particular Requirements for Skin and Hair Care Appliances" and GB4706.85-2008 "Safety of Household and Similar Appliances—Particular Requirements for Ultraviolet and Infrared Radiation Skin Appliances".

　　These two standards should be used in conjunction with GB4706.1-2005 "Safety of Household and Similar Appliances—General Requirements".

　　II. The State Administration for Market Regulation Clarifies That the Temperature Rise Standard Is the National Standard

　　The State Administration for Market Regulation stated that, currently, regarding household beauty instruments, China has issued the national standard GB/T 36419-2018 "Household and Similar Skin Beauty Appliances". It is understood that this standard involves the temperature safety standard for the use of beauty instruments, further regulating the safety risks of beauty instruments.

　　III. Jewelry Standards Are Not Applicable to Beauty Instruments

　　In October 2020, there were reports of beauty instruments with "excess nickel". The report tested 10 beauty instruments, 6 of which had "excess nickel". In fact, China currently lacks relevant material standards for the beauty instrument industry. The standards referenced in the report were the EU's Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH regulation).

　　In response, the State Administration for Market Regulation clearly stated in a document that the EU's Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH regulation) is not a Chinese law or regulation and cannot be used as the basis for law enforcement of relevant products within China.

The beauty device industry is rampant with counterfeit goods and frequent quality problems. Beware of consumer "traps".
