Cosmetics: Science and Technology
 has many predecessors and among its contemporaries does not pretend to preempt the field. The burgeoning of a science of cosmetics, a technology of cosmetics, without the abandonment of what must in part remain a craft, a skill, and an art, brought forth several excellent books in various languages, which sought to summarize the state of the knowledge. Among these Cosmetics: Science and Technology, published for the firsttime in 1957, was unique in that it was a cooperative effort of sixtyone authors, almost all of whom were employed by firms manufacturing the products described. In this aspect lies both the potential strength and possible hazard of such an undertaking. 
 
Volume one
 contains descriptive material on the manufacture and formulation of fifteen different products and classes of products. These are, in the order of appearance in that book, the following:
cleansing creams and lotions,
emollient creams and lotions,
hormone creams,
baby toiletries,
hand creams and lotions,
skin lighteners and bleach creams,
suntan preparations,
beauty masks,
foundation makeup,
face powders,
rouge,
lipsticks,
eye makeup,
dentifrices, and
mouthwashes.  

Volume two
contains descriptive material on the manufacture and formulation of an additional eighteen products and classes of products.
These are, in the order of appearance in that book, the following:
shaving preparations,
preshave and aftershave preparations,
depilatories,
shampoos,
hair-grooming preparations,
permanent waving products,
hair straighteners,
bleaches and related products,
hair conditioners and related products,

1. Evaluating Raw Materials and Finished Products

 

Written by S.D. Williams and W.H. Schmitt, Chemistry And Technology Of The Cosmetics, the book provides up-to-date information of the toiletries and cosmetics industries in an easy form. In this book, the underlying principal of the selection of raw material, formulation of products and its performance have been discussed.

Features:

• Comes with hardcover
• Pool consists of professional experts
• Widely demanded

Detailing:

• It provides an up-to-date overview of the cosmetics and toiletries industry in a readily digestible form.
• Written from the point of view of a chemist, economic and market aspects are also discussed.
• Authors discuss the rationale of raw material selection, product formulation and performance, and safety and quality aspects

The objective of IFSCC Monographs is to review the methods of characterization and analysis of polymers used in cosmetic products. The book is not designed to provide an exhaustive, up-to-date analysis of the field, but rather to give cosmetic researchers a basic overview of the types of analysis carried out for new and established products. Each method is illustrated with one or two examples of analysis in order to demonstrate the basic capabilities of each technique.

Analytical chemistry has played an important role in the development of the cosmetics industry, and continues to do so. It is an essential aspect of quality control and product safety and has led to the discovery of new cosmetic ingredients. This volume summarizes the many technologies employed by both analytic experts and cosmetic scientists in general, for the analysis and quality assessment of certain cosmetic raw materials.

The book on Personal Care Formulas by P. Morganti consists of formulas and other valuable information on personal care, starting from antiaging creams to styling products. The formulas have been categorized into five parts and that include hair care, skin care, sun, color and miscellaneous. It gives excellent ideas about how to take proper care of the skin.


Detailing:

• Organized in five formula sections it gives many different ideas to formulate in the best way, skin care, sun care, and color cosmetics.
• A final miscellaneous area provides also precious formulas for antiperspirants/deodorants, ethnic products, body sticks and more.
• In my opinion this agile booklet has to be present as consulting book in all the libraries of the worldwide efficient cosmetic chemists.

Hair Relaxers: Science, Design, and Application investigates the history of relaxer technology. Drawing on his more than two decades of hands-on experience in hair relaxer technology and formulative development, Patrick Obukowho has crafted a well-defined, comprehensive, and quite readable guide to understanding and applying the chemistry of hair relaxers to practical and dynamic formulating.

The ethnic hair market is one that is growing exponentially almost strictly on the demand of consumers, as opposed to the usual run of what business’s determine to be “necessary” new product launches. For that reason alone, hair relaxers, a large segment of the ethnic hair market, are big business in and of themselves. This segment is demanding better, more usable products, ones that have fewer harsh side-effects and better long-term results, including improved conditioning properties, hair strength retention, and ease of use.

Application and Development in topic:

• Hair, Ethnic Hair, and Hair Relaxer Chemistry
• History and Evolution of Hair Relaxers
• Emulsion Design and Perfecting Emulsions
• Ingredients and Their Role in Relaxer Formulations
• Post-treatment Products and Alternative Straightening Methods
