Cosmetic Formulation Principles And Practice (Pb 2019)

Worthless. Overpriced.

Never have I been so moved by a chemistry-related textbook. Utterly life-changing. While I was reading this book, I decided I no longer wanted to work as an analytical Chemist and that the realm of manufacturing was more profitable, more interesting, and acted on a much larger scale than anything I had done in an analytical lab. While roughly 50 pages from the end, I applied for a job at another company and changed jobs like a month later. What an amazing choice! I never would have thought about going into manufacturing as soon as I did if I hadn't read this book. Totally worth the money, even if I barely remember any of it.Tl:dr: Extensive knowledge on cosmetic manufacturing. May lead to career insights or product ideas.

Content seems valuable, print very lousy. digital print via laser copy machine. change of toner cartridge would help? disappointing print quality for that money.

If you are formulating cosmetics, this is THE book you need! A bit more in depth, but hey, if you are in this industry, you need to know what you are doing. I am reading it from cover to cover.

Not what I was expected. A lot of scientific information but I was looking for more specific formulations. Might be helpful for someone who is interested in all the science of skincare.
