What's the notification process for a new cosmetic in France?
You'll need to submit via the CPNP portal before placing on the EU market. France adds a national-level submission to the ANSM for products containing nano-materials. Typical lead-time: 2–4 weeks.Source: Reg (EC) 1223/2009 Art. 13 · ANSM guidance Mar 2026
Is BHA banned in leave-on cosmetics?
Restricted in leave-on. Annex III lists max 0.1% in leave-on, 1% in rinse-off. SCCS Opinion 1630/21 flagged endocrine concerns — expect tighter limits in 2026 review.

Here's what everyone else does.
Most founders in regulated markets do one of three things. None of them are good options.
  • Pay a consultant £5,000 to answer a question that should take ten minutes.
  • Spend hours down a regulatory rabbit hole and still aren't sure they've got it right.
  • Just wing it and hope nothing bites them.
  • The EU baseline plus member-state layers makes scaling across Europe operating blind.
  • Ingredient restrictions vary by market. Notification timelines differ. Enforcement priorities shift without warning.
Operating blind has consequences.

Market bans. Product recalls. Enforcement action. The kind of damage to your brand that takes years to recover from.

There has to be a better way.

The regulations are public. The knowledge to navigate them isn't. That's the gap MAVRYX® Assistant™ closes.

There is.

MAVRYX® Assistant™ is your on-demand regulatory expert — built specifically for cosmetics and novel nicotine brands selling into European markets.

It's not a generic AI chatbot. It's not another compliance dashboard nobody opens. It is definitely not a search engine pointed at the open internet.

It's a curated, cited, constantly updated regulatory knowledge base — maintained by real researchers, powered by a conversational interface, and personalised to the markets and products that actually matter to your business.

You ask. It answers. With the regulation, the article, the annex, and the practical guidance — all in one place, all in seconds.

"The regulations are public. The knowledge to navigate them isn't. That's the gap MAVRYX® Assistant™ closes."
Six tools. One assistant. One price.
Everything you need to operate confidently across UK and EU regulated markets — in a single subscription.
Regulatory Q&A

Ask anything.

Every question you've been afraid to pay a consultant to answer. Cited to the source regulation, article, and annex. When it's Arcus's interpretation, it tells you that too. The compliance expert on call you could never justify hiring full-time.

Ingredient Status Checker

Banned, restricted, or fine?

Search by name, CAS number, or INCI. Get the full regulatory position — EU-wide status, member-state deviations, max concentration limits by product type, and conditions of use. Not a yes/no lookup — the full picture.

Horizon Scanning

Know what's changing before it changes.

Monitors regulatory developments across your chosen markets and surfaces changes in a clean, filterable feed — linked directly to the official source. Personalised to your verticals. No noise. No irrelevant updates.

Compliance Calendar

Never miss a deadline again.

Every key deadline, submission window, transition period, and enforcement date relevant to your target markets — filtered to what matters. The brands that survive enforcement waves aren't the most sophisticated. They're the ones who knew the deadlines.

Industry News

Stay sharp. Stay current.

A curated news tab aggregating what's happening across your sector — cosmetics or novel nicotine, across Europe. Not your main event — the context that sharpens everything else. Your single point of reference for what the market is doing.

Ask the Expert

When the AI isn't enough, real humans step in.

Some questions are too complex, too high-stakes for any automated system. Escalate directly to the Arcus compliance team with one click. That's not a workaround. That's a feature — the moment self-serve becomes expert support.

Built for operators who can't afford to get regulation wrong.
  • Cosmetics founders scaling into European markets.
  • Novel nicotine brands navigating TPD, MHRA, and member state notifications without a regulatory affairs team.
  • Product development leads who need an answer now, not next week.
  • Compliance managers covering three markets, holding everything together with spreadsheets and hope.
  • Operators scaling into Europe for the first time.

Two verticals. One subscription.

Cosmetics or novel nicotine. You choose your world. Everything else filters to match it — Q&A, horizon scanning, ingredient checks, calendar.

This tool does not replace qualified legal advice for high-stakes decisions. For everything else — the daily questions, the ingredient checks, the deadline tracking — it replaces the guess, the delay, and the expensive consultant call.

Up and running in minutes.
1

Choose your vertical.

Cosmetics or novel nicotine. One subscription, one focus. Everything is built around the regulatory environment that's relevant to your business.

2

Select your markets.

Tell MAVRYX® Assistant™ where you sell — or where you plan to. Q&A, horizon scanning, ingredient checks and calendar all filter to those markets only.

3

Ask your first question.

Type it like you'd text a colleague. Get a sourced, structured answer in seconds. Install the app to your desktop or home screen. It's there whenever you need it.

One price. One user. Everything included.

Annual saves you £360. Monthly gives you flexibility. Either way, you replace hours of research, eliminate regulatory blind spots, and stop the £250/hour consultant call every time you have a question.
