Everything you Need to Know About Skin—From Head to Toe!

Whether you are formulating for mass-market products or prestige lines, Skin Care: Theories & Applications should be a key component of your research library.

Skin care has and always will drive the personal care industry gravy train. The global market for skin care is valued at more than $38 billion—$7 billion of that pie dominated by an ever-burgeoning antiaging market. The rate of growth for the skin care segment is more than 6% and is one of the fastest-growing segments in the entire industry.

In Skin Care: Theories & Applications, the reader will find the same expert authors who contribute to Cosmetics & Toiletries magazine, writing on topics they specialize in: cell adhesion, race and sensitization, thickeners, sun protection and more.

This reference covers a variety of topics to create a solid foundation of knowledge about the skin structure, ingredients testing, antiaging, cleansing and moisturization.

These building blocks are as important as the brick-and-mortar structure of the stratum corneum.
