This is the only textbook designed to provide current information in the area of cosmetic science, the various product's formulation and new and future technologies associated with the discovery, development and formulation of cosmetic products. The main topics are a short history of cosmetics; a review of the physiology of skin, hair and nails; and a current discussion of cosmetic products and their usage for the skin, hair, nails, eye, personal care products for women; baby products; products utilized by and for men; perfumes, colognes, toilet waters and other aromatic products; formulation considerations for the various product forms; and newer technologies and future products for the market place.

All of these topics are designed to expand upon the basic knowledge of the reader, whether they be an undergraduate, graduate, PhD, a young researcher or an established professional.
