Does anyone know if products produced before April 12th, need to be relabelled in order to be sold now?

Lip balm flavouring

Hello! I'm in the process of figuring out what needs to be relabelled because of the recent allergen labelling requirement changes, and I'm a bit stumped by lip balms. When I go to suppliers—and these are ones that are very thorough with soap fragrance oils—I am getting a statement like "these are food-grade flavour oils" that seem to side-step the allergen question altogether. Does that mean that these kinds of things wouldn't be in lip balm flavour oils at all? Or should I be chasing this down further? I feel like there must be others having this experience, too. Thanks in advance to anyone who has insight into this!

Hi! I have been making cold process soap for a few years now. I also make candles. I've dabbled in lip balms. I really want to learn how to make lotions, but i want to do it with a science-based approach. Are there any training programs that could be recommended? I've seen a lot of online courses and programs , but i am not sure which ones might be legit. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Oota
