Packaging Evaluation and Safety Assessment of a Cosmetic Product

Abstract

The aim of this study was the development and formulating of a cosmetic product for bodycare and the assessment of compatibility tests performed on the product, transfered into a poliethylene (PE) cosmetic bottle. Sample of cosmetic cream were stored using 200 ml PE plastic bottles with PP (Polypropylene) cap. The developed cosmetic formulation was monitored under accelerated stability studies, performed over a period of 30 days while maintaining the product at 4, 20 and 40�C. Quality control initial, and after initiating the accelerated stability test was performed for the developed cosmetic formulation.

A New, Rapid and Efficient HPLC Method to Assay Resveratrol in Food Supplements

“…Resveratrol has been the subject of intense interest in recent years due to a range of unique anti-aging properties.These include cardiovascular benefits via increased nitric oxide production, down-regulation of vasoactive peptides, lowered levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein, and cyclooxygenase inhibition; possible benefits on Alzheimer disease by breakdown of betaamyloid and direct effects on neural tissues; phytohormonal actions; anticancer properties [6]. and on the other hand, due to its antioxidant effects, in the manufacturing of cosmetic products, industry which increasingly focuses on the development of active cosmetics [9,10].…”

Determination of alpha-Tocopherol Acetate in an Anti-Aging Cosmetic Cream by Gas Chromatography

“…Cosmetological research has increasly focused on process leading to the formation of anatomical-functional damage to the skin [6,7], identified with ageing. At the same time, every possible means to counteract the injurious effects have been evaluated.…”

Selection and Application of Synthetic versus Natural Emollients in the Formulation of Skin Care Products
