The Research Type is Qualitative Descriptive and performs data collection based on interviews and documentation. The conclusion of this study is that the supervision conducted by the Food and Drug Supervisory Hall on cosmetics was carried out but not optimal enough. The obstacles to cosmetic supervision in Pekanbaru are the lack of specificity of the division of labor duties in the examination section, the lack of participation in choosing the use of cosmetic products they use, the lack of attention in legal awareness, and the absence of cosmetic business operators so this can reduce the optimality of supervision carried out by the Food and Drug Supervisory Hall in Pekanbaru City.
