With the popularity of multifunctional products, it is no surprise that sunscreen ingredients are making appearances in every conceivable form of daily makeup, in skin care lines and in bug repellant. Even hair care products tout their ultraviolet (UV)-protection properties.
Since sun worshipping in any form still is "in," formulators need to compile as much knowledge as possible and continue to court innovation and efficacy in this segment of personal care.
Formulating for Sun covers the gamut of information for sun industry insiders and spans a wide range of topics, such as:
- Introduction to sun protection products
- UV damage to human hair and skin
- Self-tanners
- UV filters
- Pigments
- Photoprotection
- Formulating
- Testing
- Photoaging
- And much more!
Expert Review
"Anyone designing products for sun protection, tanning or sunless tanning should find answers here to many troublesome formulation questions encountered on a day-to-day basis. The large amount of information, the clear structure recommends this book for scientists directly involved in the producing of cosmetics, researchers, teachers and students in the field of cosmetic products."
