  Learning Cosmetic Chemistry

  Posted by kalibean on March 18, 2017 at 4:18 pm

  Hello!

  I have a 4 year old skin care line and an ever growing interest in persueing a career as a cosmetic chemist, or at least finding some resources to begin acquiring this knowledge.  I am really interested in either a class I can attend or a lab that takes on interns.  I live in Sonoma County, Northern California.  Any suggestions??

  Thanks!
  Colleen

  In 4 years you haven’t learned? Who designed your products?

  The California Society of Cosmetic Chemists is a place you should contact. I’ll actually be doing a Beginning Cosmetic Chemistry course out there in October. And our online course is always a good option. https://chemistscorner.com/members

  Kalibean, there are many books about all cosmetics areas,  other option is your supplier, but the most important is the practice, the known of ingredients or actives.
