Sec. 701.12  Name and place of business of manufacturer, packer, or distributor.

    (a) The label of a cosmetic in package form shall specify 
conspicuously the name and place of business of the manufacturer, 
packer, or distributor.
    (b) The requirement for declaration of the name of the manufacturer, 
packer, or distributor shall be deemed to be satisfied in the case of a 
corporation only by the actual corporate name, which may be preceded or 
followed by the name of the particular division of the corporation. 
Abbreviations for ``Company,'' ``Incorporated,'' etc., may be used and 
``The'' may be omitted. In the case of an individual, partnership, or 
association, the name under which the business is conducted shall be 
used.
    (c) Where the cosmetic is not manufactured by the person whose name 
appears on the label, the name shall be qualified by a phrase that 
reveals the connection such person has with such cosmetic; such as, 
``Manufactured for ______________'', ``Distributed by 
________________'', or any other wording that expresses the facts.
    (d) The statement of the place of business shall include the street 
address, city, State, and ZIP Code; however, the street address may be 
omitted if it is shown in a current city directory or telephone 
directory. The requirement for inclusion of the ZIP Code shall apply 
only to consumer commodity labels developed or revised after the 
effective date of this section.

In the case of nonconsumer packages, the ZIP Code shall appear either on 
the label or the labeling (including the invoice).
    (e) If a person manufactures, packs, or distributes a cosmetic at a 
place other than his principal place of business, the label may state 
the principal place of business in lieu of the actual place where such 
cosmetic was manufactured or packed or is to be distributed, unless such 
statement would be misleading.
