Abstract

The halal industry has often become a sensitive issue and is becoming a global issue due to the fact that the population of Muslims keeps increasing day by day. In Malaysia, the use of a halal logo is permitted for cosmetics and personal care products, butthe product doesn't need to have a halal logo before it can be entered into the market. It can be said that what is happening now is that the rule and the law issued by Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM)do not have a cohesive effect but are only voluntary actions by the industry market players to obtain the halal logo. A new challenge exists to understand how the halal cosmetics and personal care products industry can cater to the needs of Muslim consumers despite the minimum requirements of the products by JAKIM. This article will elaborate on the issues faced by halal cosmetics and the personal care industry using qualitative analysis methods. The past and current literatureson the development of halal cosmetics and personal care havebeen reviewedfor this article. The uses of the halal logo and the supervision by the authority body have been discussed in depth. The recommendations to overcome the issues are also highlighted and can be used to improve the halal cosmetics and personal care industries.
