Fundamentals of Cosmetics
Fundamentals of Cosmetics
The FDA only regulates against the colors that can be used in the
cosmetics and hair dyes. The cosmetic companies do not have to
report any injuries from the products; they also only have voluntary
recalls on products.
Eyelid glue, eye liner, eye shadow, eye shimmer, and glitter eye
pencils as well as different color pencils used to color and
emphasize the eyelids (larger eyes give a more youthful
appearance).
Broadway actor Jim Brochu applies make-up before the opening night of a play.
The chin mask known as chutti for Kathakali, a performing art in Kerala, India is
considered the thickest makeup applied for any artform.
Also included in the general category of
cosmetics are skin care products. These
include creams and lotions to moisturize
the face and body which are often
formulated for different skin types per
range, sunscreens to protect the skin from
UV radiation and damage, skin
lighteners, and treatment products to
repair or hide skin imperfections
(wrinkles, dark circles under eyes, etc.),
tanning oils to brown the skin.
While there is assurance from the largest
cosmetic companies that ingredients have
passed quality tests and official
regulations, and are therefore generally
safe to use, there is a growing preference
for cosmetics that are without any
"synthetic" ingredients, especially those
derived from petroleum.
Ingredients' listings in cosmetics are
highly regulated in many countries.

SKIN CHEMISTRY
A composition that is applied to
healthy, intact skin will partially
absorb into the stratum corneum
(SC) and its components will
partition into the bricks-and-mortar
structure of the SC depending on
their chemical and physical
properties. In addition, the vehicle
or formulation can affect the SC
either by lowering its resistance
and thus accelerate penetration, or
by providing additional strength
and protection to retard
penetration.
Although not designated as such, many
materials are included in cosmetic
formulations as permeation enhancers and
these hold the potential to affect skin barrier
integrity. For example, ethanol, oleic acid
and some surfactants are known to affect the
thermodynamics of intercellular lipids in the
SC, changing their organization from rigid
gel crystalline to liquid.1 This process
accelerates penetration of the enhancers and
other components in the formula.

Inventory and back-order levels fluctuate considerably
across the supply chain even when customer demand
doesn’t vary
The variability worsens as we travel “up” the supply chain
Forecasting doesn’t help!
