Analysis of Share in Jar Practice, Positive Law VS Islamic Law Perspective

Abstract

Cosmetics are an important need for most women, therefore many cosmetic industries continue to try to meet consumer needs for cosmetics. Then the term share in jar appears, share in jar is the process of dividing the contents of an original size product into several smaller places or containers. This product is loved by consumers who want to try it on their skin. However, this practice creates problems that can harm consumers and brand holders, so there needs to be a solution according to positive law and Islamic law. The author uses a qualitative method where the data sources are obtained from literature and legislation and then described in the form of information. The results of this study indicate that the practice of share in jar causes losses to consumers and brand owners because it violates the UUPK and does not fulfill the CPKB requirements and there is an element of gharar where the harm is greater, therefore this practice is better avoided. The author's suggestion for this research is that consumers are expected to avoid share in jar products and the government is expected to make specific regulations regarding the distribution of share in jar products.
