★ Checked against official records

Recalls & alerts

Sunscreen filters

Official recall, safety alert and import refusal records for cosmetics and sunscreens from Korea (MFDS), the EU (Safety Gate), the U.S. (FDA) and Canada (Health Canada). Has a Korean product had problems in other countries? Filter by “Made in South Korea”.

Sources: KR MFDS cosmetic recalls and sales suspensions (data.go.kr) · EU EU Safety Gate weekly reports, cosmetics alerts since 2015 (ec.europa.eu/safety-gate-alerts) · US FDA Enforcement Reports for sunscreens (openFDA) and FDA Import Refusal Reports for cosmetics and sunscreens made in South Korea (accessdata.fda.gov) · CA Health Canada Recalls and Safety Alerts open data (recalls-rappels.canada.ca). An import refusal means the shipment was refused entry at the U.S. border; it is not a recall of products already on sale. Country of origin is shown as the source records it; Health Canada's open data does not give one.

Frequently asked questions

Where do these recalls and alerts come from?

Korea's MFDS cosmetic recall data, U.S. FDA recalls (openFDA) and import refusals, the EU's Safety Gate alerts, and Health Canada recalls. Each row links the official record.

What is the difference between a recall and an import refusal?

A recall removes products already on the market. An FDA import refusal means a shipment was refused entry at the U.S. border; it is not a recall and does not mean products on sale are affected.

What does “Made in South Korea” mean here?

It is the country of origin given by the official source. Korea's MFDS records are always Korean products; other sources show it only when they publish it.

Why do I see non-Korean products?

The EU and Canadian sources cover all cosmetics. Use the “Made in South Korea” filter to see Korean products only.

How often is this updated?

Korean, U.S. and Canadian sources are checked daily; the EU's weekly reports are checked every week.
