AB 728: Skin care product sales: age verification.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified February 3, 2026

What AB 728 does, verified February 3, 2026

This bill would make it unlawful for businesses to sell over-the-counter anti-aging skin care products or cosmetics containing vitamin A or alpha hydroxy acids to minors without verifying their age and identity. The verification process would include asking the buyer's age and requesting documents that prove their age and identity. This law would prohibit the sale of these products to individuals under 18 years of age, similar to existing laws for aerosol paint and etching cream.
