 Preface
Handbook of Cosmetic and Personal Care Additives,
Second Edition provides information on more than 28,000 trade
names, chemicals, materials, and synonyms and serves as an
essential guide to product managers, formulation scientists,
quality controllers, cosmetic chemists as well as any
professional associated with the cosmetic and personal care
industry.
The cosmetic and personal care industry encompasses a di-
versity of products including: body and face lotions, creams,
and salves; deodorants and antiperspirants; sunscreens and
tanning aids; makeup preparations (face powder, lipstick, mas-
cara, eye shadow, eye liner); nail products; hair preparations
(shampoos, conditioners, coloring rinses and dyes, waving so-
lutions); bath preparations and soaps; shaving preparations;
oral care products; and fragrances.
Choosing optimal ingredients in the overall process of market-
ing and developing new and improved products is a monumen-
tal task. This reference coalesces the necessary research pro-
cess into a single source and expedites material selection for
the user by cross referencing trade name products by chemi-
cal composition, function, CAS number and EINECS number.
This reference contains the following sections:
Part I
Trade Name Reference contains alphabetical entries of trade
name cosmetic/personal care additives with extensive profiles
of each product listed. The product descriptions include: its
manufacturer, chemical description/composition, CAS, and
EINECS identifying numbers, general properties, applications
and functions, toxicology, compliance and regulatory informa-
tion as provided by the manufacturer and other sources
Part II
Chemical Component Cross-Reference contains
approximately 7500 cosmetic and personal care chemicals/
materials that are either contained in the trade name products
profiled in Part I or are generic chemicals used as cosmetic/
personal care additive ingredients. Each entry includes,
wherever possible, its synonyms, CAS number, EINECS/
ELINCS number, FEMA number, UN/DOT number, molecular
and empirical formulas, chemical properties, functions and
applications, toxicology, precautions, use levels, regulatory
information, and manufacturers and distributors of the chemical.
All chemical/material synonyms are cross-referenced back to
the main entry. The chemical monograph entries also contain
a listing of the trade name products that are either equivalent
to the chemical entry or contain this chemical as one of its
ingredients.
Part III
Functional/Application Index is a powerful tool for locating
the trade names and chemicals based on their function and
application. By searching for key functional words related to
cosmetic/personal care additives such as anticaking agents,
binders, colorants, disintegrants, emulsifiers, encapsulants, fill-
ers, fragrances, pearlescents, in specific application areas such
as makeup, mouthwash, skin lotions, shampoos, sunscreens,
etc., the user is directed to the trade names and/or chemicals
that have that specific functional/application attribute.
Part IV
Manufacturers Directory contains detailed contact informa-
tion for the more than 3100 worldwide manufacturers and their
branches for the trade name products and chemical compo-
nents that are referenced in this handbook. Wherever pos-
sible, telephone, telefax, toll-free numbers, e-mail and internet
addresses, and complete mailing addresses are included for
each manufacturer.
Appendixes
CAS Number Index contains CAS number entries followed by
a listing of their trade name product and chemical equivalents
in alphabetical order. The chemical name is in boldfaced type.
EINECS/ELINCS Number Index contains EINECS/ELINCS
number entries followed by a listing of their trade name product
and generic chemical equivalents in alphabetical order. The
vii
chemical name is in boldfaced type.
FEMA Number Index orders chemicals contained in this refer-
ence by these numbers (assigned by the Flavor and Extract
Manufacturers Association).
Glossary contains definitions of terminology associated with
the cosmetics and personal care industry.
We are confident that those involved in the cosmetic/personal
care industry will find this compendium an important addition to
their reference library. We are also pleased to provide this ref-
erence as an electronic product.
This reference is the culmination of many years of research,
investigation of product sources acquired through personal
contacts and correspondences with major chemical manufac-
turers worldwide, as well as toxicological databases, chemical
reference books, trade magazines and journals. We would
especially like to express our gratitude to Roberta Dakan for
her contribution to standardizing the entry format and manag-
ing the trade name and chemical database that represents the
basis of this and future chemical references. Her untiring ef-
forts have been instrumental in the production of this source
book.
