Personal Care’s technical consultant, Anthony Dweck, has had his book, Formulating Natural Cosmetics, published by Allured Books.
The publication is a concise overview of the natural world and much of the chemistry to inspire both formulator and marketer to discover new product concepts and markets. This volume looks at the entire portfolio of natural raw materials and explains in simple terms the chemistry, the folklore and traditional uses that nature has provided. For the first time information has been assembled on almost 300 fixed oils, 200 essential oils and 600 botanical extracts making this a useful handbook and companion for anybody who requires a quick overview of this subject. There is also a wealth of toxicological information assembled in this volume.
