Quality Control tests used in the pharmaceutical industry can be applicable also for cosmetic formulations. However, claim substantiation testing is unique to cosmetic products. To enable time- and cost-effective quality control testing, assessment methodologies constantly keep evolving. This Special Issue includes manuscripts that explore all stages of Quality Control testing for cosmetic products, i.e., (1) physicochemical stability testing; (2) microbial stability testing; (3) efficacy testing including objective/subjective claim substantiation testing and the evaluation of sensorial properties; (4) toxicological/safety testing with emphasis on current and evolving methodologies that replace animal testing. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aChemistry$2bicssc 606 $aPhysical chemistry$2bicssc 610 $asafety 610 $acosmetics 610 $abotanicals 610 $atoxicology 610 $aTTC 610 $asolar elastosis 610 $acollagen type I 610 $asolar radiation 610 $anon-melanoma skin cancers 610 $aphotoaging 610 $atattoos 610 $apermanent makeup 610 $aPMU 610 $acolorants 610 $apigments 610 $acosmetic product safety 610 $anon-animal-testing methodologies 610 $adermal absorption 610 $askin irritation 610 $askin sensitization 610 $agenotoxicity 610 $aendocrine disruptors 610 $aactive compounds 610 $aassay 610 $acosmeceutics 610 $afunctional cosmetics 610 $aHPLC-UV 610 $alabelling 610 $aretinoids 610 $atocopherol 610 $aubiquinone 610 $a? carotene 610 $astability testing 610 $astability protocol 610 $aaccelerated ageing 610 $ashelf life 610 $aminimally disruptive formulas 610 $adirect to consumer 610 $aretail model 610 $asensory testing 610 $arefractive index 610 $acritical wavelength 610 $aturbidity 610 $askin hydration 610 $acreams 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aChemistry 615 7$aPhysical chemistry 700 $aDodou$b Kalliopi$4edt$01313407 702 $aDodou$b Kalliopi$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585937803321 996 $aCurrent and Evolving Practices in the Quality Control of Cosmetics$93031394 997 $aUNINA
