Chapter 1 Introduction -- Chapter 2 Manufacturing of cosmetics products for human -- Chapter 3 Creams and its cosmetics products -- Chapter 4 Essential oils and their importance in cosmetics industries -- Chapter 5 Preparation of talcum powder, shampoo, enamels and hair remover -- Chapter 6 Preparation of face cream, nail polish and nail polish remover.
Summary: "Cosmetics are not a modern invention. Humans have used various substances to alter their appearance or accentuate their features for at least 10,000 years, and possibly a lot longer. Everyday products such as shampoos, cleaning products and deodorants all contain fragrances and perfumes. Developing these fragrances is the work of organic chemists, who craft complex mixtures of organic molecules to achieve the desired scents. Cosmetics are in use all over the world since thousands of years. The practice continues even today. In fact it is growing because of the number of body and beauty pageants being organised at national and international levels, the world over. This growing interest in the use of cosmetics has created a need for scientific study of this subject to facilitate a proper evaluation of all beauty products. Prompted by this awareness and the need to have safe product, the educationists of pharmacy have introduced this part of pharmaceutical technology as one of the subjects for study. Cosmetic products that make an additional therapeutic claim (such as moisturisers that also lighten the skin) are regulated by a different organisation-the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). Perfumes encompass a wide variety of ingredients, which are tailored for specific occasions and seasons. The history of perfumes goes back 5,000 years to the ancient Egyptians who originally used them in religious ceremonies. Making a perfume requires extensive knowledge in organic chemistry as well as a creative approach to combining disparate extracts into a single perfume with layers of fragrances. It is a comprehensive book which studies manufacturing, packing and application of all cosmetics used in both East and West. Research scientists in cosmetics will also find this useful. We hope, that this book will satisfy the demands and needs of the students." --Provided by publisher
