  • The cosmetics' industry has experienced some significant changes in the past five years. Marketing has evolved, the consumer has become more knowledgeable and demanding, and cosmetics themselves have become more sophisticated and innovative.
  • Technological advances have allowed for the creation of multifunctional products that perform more than their basic role.
  • Multifunctional products
    • Foundations with high sun protection factor (SPF) protect from ultraviolet (UV) rays
    • Lipsticks moisturize
    • Mascaras lengthen, curve, and thicken
  • The biggest performance development in color cosmetics has been the creation of "stay-on" products, which are long lasting.
  • Makeup products contribute also in a significant way to the general health and well-being of women. They have a major role, which is to provide psychological stimulation to satisfy personal desires for self-improvement, self-adornment, and good grooming for one's own sense of well-being and for the general attention or attraction of others.

  • Hydrophilic
    The surface properties of pigments and substrates used for makeup cosmetics
  • Hydrophobic
    The surface properties of some pigments can be changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic
  • Surface treatments for pigments
    1. Electron-charge reactions
    2. Mechanochemical processes
    3. Chemical interactions
    4. Mechanical processes
  • Hydrophobic pigments
    • Treated inorganic colors
    • DC colors
    • Nylon
    • Titanium dioxide
    • Talc
    • Kaolin
    • Mica, and other minerals
  • Waxes
    Give rigidity and solidity to lipsticks
  • Oils
    Give lipsticks their slippery and soft aspect when applied

    3. Adding the colored paste at high temperature with the rest of the formula
    4. Molding the colored paste
  • Glossy lipsticks
    Have a higher level of the waxy phase (up to 80%) and a higher ratio of oil to wax, with a weaker rate of pigments (0–5%)
  • Matte lipsticks
    Use talcs, nylon powder, silica or polymethylmethacrylate to give a powdered, slippery, and very soft touch
  • Constituents of nail enamel
    • Lacquer
    • Agent for adhesion and gloss
    • Solvents
    • Plasticizers
    • Pigments
    • Thixotropic agents
  • Face makeup products are used to make the skin look natural and beautiful for as long as possible by unifying the color of the skin, improving a dull and tired complexion, giving a matte finish, and masking possible imperfections.

    • Smooth finish
    • No transfer
    • Oil-free
  • Ingredients in foundations

    • Oil-in-water
    • Water-in-oil
    • Oil-free
    • Water-free or anhydrous
  • Oil-based foundations

    Water-in-oil emulsions containing pigments suspended in oil, such as mineral oil, vegetable oils, and synthetic esters
  • Water-based foundations
    Oil-in-water emulsions containing a small amount of oil in which pigments are emulsified with a relatively large quantity of water
  • Oil-free foundations

    Contain vegetable or mineral oils, silicones dimethicone or cyclomethicone, which leave the skin with a dry feeling
  • Forms of oil-free foundations
    • Alcohol based
    • Glycerin based
    • Creams or lotions (ideal for oily or acne-prone skin)
  • Water-free or anhydrous foundations
    Are waterproof, and high concentration of pigments can be incorporated
  • Most-used ingredients in face makeup
    • Mica
    • Titanium dioxide
    • Silica
  • For women with oily complexions, lipids secreted from skin tissue collapse the makeup finishing and the surface of the finishing skin becomes glossy, since lipid from skin tissue is miscible with pigments and binder in makeup cosmetics.
  • Surface treatments for face makeup
    • Perfluoroalkyl phosphate
    • Benzophenone and p-amino – organic low-molecular weight UV absorbers
    • Ultrafine titanium dioxides and zinc oxides

  • Face powders
    Provide coverage of complexion imperfections, oil control, matte finish, and tactile smoothness to the skin
  • Ingredients in face powder mixture
    • Talc and serecite
