Take the guesswork out of choosing safe and effective cosmetics and cosmeceuticals.

You wouldn?t eat something without knowing what it was. Don?t you want to take the same care with what you put on your face, hair, and body? Find out what?s in your health and beauty products with Ruth Winter?s A Consumer?s Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients. This updated and expanded sixth edition gives you all the facts you need to protect yourself and your family from possible irritants, confusing chemical names, or exaggerated claims of beauty from gimmick additives.

Virtually every chemical found in toiletries, cosmetics, and cosmeceuticals?from body and face creams to toothpaste, hand lotion, shaving cream, shampoo, soap, perfume, and makeup?is evaluated in this book, including those ingredients marketed as being all-natural, for children, and for people of color. The alphabetical arrangement makes it easy to look up the ingredients in the products you use.

With new substances popping up in products we utilize every day?and with the continuing deregulation of the cosmetics industry?A Consumer?s Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients is more indispensable than ever.

EVERY HUMAN should have this book

If you are a human, and use lots of cosmetics/cosmeseuticals/hair care products/face care products/body care products you should have a copy of this book, as if it were the dictionary.

This book is incredibly helpful and the writer is VERY knowledgeable. She explains literally everything you need to know to make healthy, and/or organic choices in your everday life.

It's a great gift for anyone who cares about what's going in or on their bodies.

Should be called a Consumer's Bible of Cosmetic Ingredients !!!

I am an online retailer of fine skin care, hair care and cosmetic products. Unfortunately, it seems one has to be a chemist now to determine what exactly is going into these products, and hence onto your skin ! Some of the ingredients are truly frightening....lead, mercury, formaldehyde to name a few. Many of the ingredients which are currently approved for use in the United States are already banned in the European Union. It is only with plain language reference materials such as provided by Ruth Winter in this book that the consumer, and the retailer, can be forewarned about the products they are buying.

BRAVO !!!!!

Very Helpful

This book is great for understanding the products you are putting on your body. It is also a helpful guide to understandin products that are/are not earth friendly. It is very surprising to know some very harmful products are acutlly used in skin care products and they actually age your skin verses doing the intended opposite. It's important to know the truth rather than to accept the slogan stated on the packaging.

very helpful

I am in school to become a certified Esthetican and this dictionary is extrememly helpful in supporting my product knowledge. It is definitely user friendly.
