Sell-through and disposal guidance 

All cosmetics made, distributed, or sold in Washington must comply with TFCA.

Sell-through period: You can sell or use cosmetics bought before January 1, 2025, until December 31, 2025, even if they contain restricted chemicals. This applies to in-state retailers existing stock.

Spread the word

We work with communities to keep everyone safe. To help, we've created a communications toolkit for cosmetologists, retailers, and distributors. Use these to inform your colleagues, employees, clients, and supply chain partners about the December 31, 2025 deadline. The toolkit includes:

• Sharable resources: Use and modify email templates, social media posts, images, and an explainer video.
• Toolkit for cosmetologists
• Toolkit for retailers and distributors
