Opis

A Formulary of Cosmetic Preparations: Creams, Lotions and Milks (Volume 2) is a comprehensive technical reference in English designed for cosmetic scientists, formulators and professionals in the personal care industry. Edited by Anthony L. L. Hunting, this second volume in the A Formulary of Cosmetic Preparations series focuses specifically on emulsion‑based cosmetic products and provides hundreds of tested recipes and formulation examples for creams, lotions, milks and related semi‑solid preparations. The book is structured into sections that guide the reader from general formulations and foundational emulsion techniques — including how to solubilize and emulsify different raw materials — to specialized product formulations such as all‑purpose creams, moisturizing products, cleansing masks, facial treatment creams, foundations and day creams, hand care products, body lotions and even products formulated for babies. Each recipe is presented as a practical starting point that formulators can adapt or refine in the development of original cosmetic products, with accompanying information on ingredients, their roles and typical supplier sources. Because of its breadth and detail, this volume serves both as a working formulary for laboratory and product development teams and as a reference for understanding the components and design principles behind many common topical cosmetic products. Volume 2 is widely used by professionals involved in cosmetic formulation, product innovation and quality control in the skin care and personal care sectors.
