Raw Material Quality Assurance
Raw Material Quality Assurance
The FDA defines cosmetics by their intended use, as "articles intended to be rubbed, poured, sprinkled, or sprayed on, introduced into, or otherwise applied to the human body...for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance". Among the products included in this definition are skin moisturizers, perfumes, lipsticks, fingernail polishes, eye and facial makeup, cleansing shampoos, permanent waves, hair colors, and deodorants, as well as any substance intended for use as a component of a cosmetic product. Many cosmetics are designed for use of applying to the face, hair and body.
The raw-materials influence directly in what the consumer feels when applies the cosmetic. The emollients, for example, are raw-materials of marked influence in the tactile sense. The quality control of cosmetics’ raw-materials is important to ensure the efficacy and safety of products. Due to the rapid growth that cosmetic industries have exhibit all over the world, efficient, low cost and rapid methods to test cosmetics’ raw-materials are a priority.
