Question

There are various makeup products containing Citric Acid. Is there a concern of chametz in them? Also, I have heard that during the production process it becomes unfit for consumption even by a dog, and only afterward is it rectified. Would there still be an issue in such a case?

Answer

Hello,
According to the law, makeup does not require Passover certification.
There is room for stringency regarding lipsticks and hand creams, as they come into contact with food.
