Cosmetics Product Development Highlights

WHAT ARE COSMETICS?
The U.S. FDA defines cosmetics as: "intended to be applied to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance without affecting the body's structure or functions." This broad definition includes any material intended for use as a component of a cosmetic product.

WHAT ARE SOME INGREDIENTS USED IN COSMETIC FORMULATION?
Emulsifiers, surfactants, fatty chemicals, emollients and moisturizers, powders, polymers, gums and hydrocolloids, humectants, quaternaries, silicones, thickeners color additives and preservatives are some key ingredients used in cosmetic formulation.

The following highlighted CfPA Courses focus on these such ingredients used in cosmetics product development and formulation.
