Skin care product sales: age verification.

California Assembly Bill 728 aimed to establish age verification requirements for the sale of skin care products. The goal was to ensure that only individuals of a certain age could purchase these products, potentially to protect minors from harmful ingredients. However, the bill ultimately did not pass.

Supporters of AB 728 argued that the bill was necessary to protect young consumers from potentially harmful skin care products. They believed that implementing age verification would promote public health and safety, ensuring that minors do not have unrestricted access to products that could adversely affect their health.

Critics of AB 728 contended that the age verification requirements could create unnecessary barriers for consumers seeking skin care products. They argued that the bill could lead to complications in the purchasing process and might not effectively address the concerns it intended to solve.
