RE:  The tariff classification of Phyto-Glycolipids and Garlic
Protein   Extract from China

Dear Mr. Yeung:

     In your letter dated August 26, 1991 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.         
     
     According to your letter, Phyto-Glycolipids is a chemical
mixture containing a concentrate derived from the extract of
millet seeds, vegetable oils and preservatives.  Garlic Protein
Extract is a chemical mixture containing a concentrate of
proteins and amino acids derived from the extract of garlic and
preservatives in water.  These products are both used as a
cosmetic ingredient for the care of the skin.   

     The applicable subheading for the Phyto-Glycolipids and
Garlic Protein Extract will be 3823.90.5050, Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other
mixtures not elsewhere specified.  The rate of duty will be 5
percent ad valorem.    

     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

     A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.  If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.



                                   Sincerely,
