For the purposes of this subtitle a cosmetic shall also be deemed to be misbranded:

a. If its labeling is false or misleading in any particular.

b. If in package form unless it bears a label containing the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor.

c. If any word, statement, or other information required by or under authority of this subtitle to appear on the label or labeling is not prominently placed thereon with such conspicuousness (as compared with other words, statements or designs in the labeling) and in such terms as to render it likely to be read and understood by the ordinary individual under customary conditions of purchase and use.

d. If its container is so made, formed, or filled as to be misleading.
