On January 1, 2018, Cabinet Decree No. 46-93 “On Standardization and Certification”, which initiated the Certification System, ceased to exist. This system was based on the old Soviet GOSTs (old state standards) and was supplemented by revised or developed new Ukrainian DSTU (national standards). On the one hand, such a certification system protected the market from low-quality cosmetic products, on the other hand, it inhibited the development of innovations and technologies. This was expressed in the fact that the system was based on outdated GOSTs of the 70-80s and domestic DSTU developed in the 90s.
