Cosmetic Claims Boundary
At a glance
Cosmetic Claims Boundary is a directory entry for lotion and oil care questions, formula context, use experience, evidence limits, and claim-boundary routing.
What evidence can support
- Neutral reader education, source routing, terminology control, and evidence-limit framing.
- Connections between formulas, ingredients, routines, claims, and public source notes.
What evidence cannot support
- Product-specific warming performance, formula compatibility, measured absorption, barrier change, or skin-outcome claims.
- Universal baby, pregnancy, eczema-adjacent, sensitive-skin, preservative, fragrance, or safety statements.
Claim status
Allowed: neutral directory explanation, source-route context, reader-language clarification, and evidence-limit wording.
Needs evidence: any specific temperature, formula, compatibility, baby, pregnancy, absorption, barrier, preservative, fragrance, or skin-outcome claim.
Do not say: product suitability, universal safety, medical benefit, formula compatibility, or warmed-product performance unless a specific evidence page and claim boundary support that exact wording.
