From anti-aging creams to make-up, surfactants play a key role as
delivery systems for skin care and decorative cosmetic products.
Surfactants in Personal Care Products and Decorative Cosmetics,
Third Edition presents a scientific basis in surfactant science and
recent advances in the industry necessary for understanding,
formulating, and testing surfactant-based cosmetics and
cosmeceuticals.
Presenting a new perspective from the previous edition, this
book details the function of emulsions, microemulsions, micelles,
and nanostructures in the formulation of personal care products and
decorative cosmetics and examines their ability to deliver specific
benefits to the skin. This edition begins by describing new
research into skin structure and cellular processes. Then it
presents the latest methods and techniques for substantiating
claims and assessing the effectiveness of moisturizers, anti-aging
treatments, and sunscreens. Subsequent chapters focus on surfactant
solution properties, surfactant emulsions, nanotechnology,
cleanser/conditioner systems, and pigment dispersions. Following a
detailed examination on the role of surfactants in finished

strategies and surfactant raw materials for enhancing pigmented
products.
The third edition of Surfactants in Personal Care Products and
