Based in Washington, D.C., the Personal Care Products Council is a leading national trade association for the global cosmetic and personal care products industry. Founded in 1894, it represents more than 600 member companies involved in manufacturing, distributing, and supplying the finished products that form the bulk of the U.S. personal care market, from sunscreens and toothpaste to shampoos, moisturizers, makeup, and fragrances. The council emphasizes product safety, quality, and ongoing innovation as core aspects of the industry. Its activities are directed at member companies and the broader sector, providing industry-wide standards, advocacy, and information resources. In April 2026, PCPC partnered with CHPA and related health foundations to expand the Wear Sunscreen campaign, a cross-industry effort to promote daily sun protection as a public health priority.
