Active Ingredients Nowadays active ingredients (or cosmeceuticals) are the essence of many skin care products turning

them from simple formulas to effective, functional, drug-like products. Typically, such ingredients include

vitamins, botanicals, enzymes, peptides, and offer various functions like anti-wrinkle and anti-aging ef-

fects, soothing and anti-inflammatory effects, skin-lightening, and skin regenerating effects.

A predominant group of active ingredients include anti-aging ingredients. In general, they slow down

degenerative processes as they occur in the aging skin, and at the same time stimulate regenerative

processes including: production of collagen, prevention of water loss, replenishing the skin with natural

lipids, maintenance of the skin cell homeostasis, and prevention of oxidant degeneration.

Antioxidants Antioxidants very useful active ingredients for the manufacturing of

cosmetics. Generally, antioxidants interrupt oxidation reactions and

prevent the effects of oxygen radicals (e.g. peroxides) both proc-

esses known to damage the integrity and function of various natural

substances. Antioxidants are useful in two ways: On the one hand

they prevent degradation of natural ingredients (proteins, sugars,

lipids) in the cosmetic product. On the other hand antioxidants pro-

tect the skin cells from being damaged and slow down the aging

process. Antioxidants have been shown to boost the skin's radiance,

minimize age spots, sun spots, and fine lines.

Proteins are widely used active ingredients in both skin and hair care products. Their main benefits include good moisturizing, condi-

tioning, and excellent film-forming properties. To make proteins suit-

able to be incorporated into water based cosmetic products, they

need to be converted into soluble form. This is usually done by hydro-

lyzation, a process where the protein is cut into smaller parts. Proteins

most often used include collagen, elastin, keratin, milk, and silk (from

silkworm) but also vegetable proteins such as wheat and corn gluten,

soy, rice and oat protein. Soy proteins are useful also due to their gel-

ling and emulsifying effects.

Sebaceous glands secrete an oily substance called sebum (tallow)

that is made of fat (lipids) and the debris of dead fat-producing cells.

In the glands, sebum is produced within specialized cells and is re-

leased as these cells burst. Sebum is odorless, but its bacterial break-

down can produce odors. Hyperactive sebaceous glands produce

too much sebum which is the cause of oily hair or skin and may also

cause acne and dandruff. An important part of the acne and dan-

druff treatment is therefore the reduction of the sebum production.

Alpha hydroxy acids (AHA's) work mainly as an exfoliant. They

cause the dead skin cells to slough off, making room for regrowth of

new skin. AHA's may even also stimulate the production of collagen

and elastin, and are reported to improve wrinkling, roughness, and

mottled pigmentation of photodamaged skin after months of daily

application. AHA's in skin-care products work best in a concentra-

tion of 5% to 8% and at a pH of 3 to 4. Beta hydroxy acids like sali-

cylic acid are a topical exfoliant that can reverse some of the ef-

fects of photoaging such as fine wrinkles and discolored skin.

AHA Fruit Acids


Skin may appear darker than normal and may be blotchy, uneven

areas, or patches of brown to gray discoloration or freckling. Skin

pigmentation disorders occur because the body produces either too

much or too little melanin (skin pigment).

Increased melanin production, known as hyperpigmentation, is

often referred to as melasma (general term describing darkening of

the skin), chloasma (discolorations caused by hormones) or solar len-

tigines (darkened spots caused by the sun). In addition, hyperpig-

mentation can be caused by skin damage, such as remnants of

blemishes, wounds or rashes.

Skin-lighteners (like bearberry leaves extract and undecylenoyl

phenylalanine) work in that they inhibit enzymes or other key compo-

nents in the melanin synthesis. Many treatments use a combination of

melanin-inhibiting ingredients along with a sunscreen, and a prescrip-

tion retinoid. Depending on how the skin responds to these treat-

ments, exfoliants may also be used either in the form of topical cos-

metic or chemical peels. Since the production of melanin is sup-

pressed only as long as the enzymes are inhibited, skin cells will even-

tually resume producing and depositing melanin pigments once

treatment with skin-lighteners has been stopped.

Emollience can be defined as the phenomenon perceived form the smoothing and softening effect a

substance is able to create by reducing the skin roughness and enhancing the moisture content of the

skin. Emollience and moisturization, therefore, are properties which go hand-in hand. Emollience, how-

ever, is not only a feel, it can also be measured by skin topography and elasticity measurements. Thus,

emollients are very important ingredients for formulating skin care products. There is a large variety of both

natural and synthetic emollients available including oils, butters, silicones, hydrocarbons and others. Many

of them also possess superfatting, emulsifying, and thickening properties.

Emollients & Humectants

Natural oils are vegetable oils consist of aethereal salts of glycerin with a large number of organic acids such as stearic acid, oleic acid.

Natural oils are excellent emollients leaving the skin soft and smooth.

While penetrating the skin many oils have also effective nourishing

and revitalizing effects. Natural oils are used in a wide variety of cos-

metic products including personal care products, makeup products,

or pure as massage oils.

Humectants (or moisturizers) are important ingredients allowing to

prevent loss of moisture thereby retaining the skin's natural moisture.

Some compounds also have the ability to actively attract moisture.

Moisture balance in the upper layer of the skin is controlled by the

presence of sebum and surface lipids. By preventing the loss of mois-

ture to the environment, humectants indirectly soften and increase

the flexibility of the skin. Humectants are thus key ingredients in most

skin care products but also in hair care products to volumize the hair.

There is a large variety of humectants including proteins, acids, poly-

saccharides, and others (e.g. glycerine, sorbitol, urea, aloe vera).

Emulsifiers are used in creams and lotions to mix water with oils. Since water and oil do not mix but stay

separated, an additional agent (emulsifier) is necessary to form a homogenous mixture keeping water and

oil together. There are 2 types of emulsifiers. Oil-in-water (o/w) emulsifiers keep oil drops packed in water,

while water-in-oil (w/o) emulsifiers keep water drops packed in oil. W/O emulsifiers are used for a fatty feel

(e.g. night & sun protection creams). O/W emulsifiers are used primarily in moisturizing products (e.g. body

lotions, day creams). There are also blends of several different emulsifiers which are called emulsifying

waxes. Typically, they contain 2-5 compounds. We gave them the name ‘CreamMakers’.

Instant cold emulsions (ICE) are a brand new, patent-pending in-

gredient that allows to make high-quality creams and lotions instantly

by just mixing ICE powder with water. ICE powders deliver wax into an

emulsion without the use of heat. The physical form of the ingredient

is a powder, and when mixed with water, turns quickly into a cream

or lotion. The combination of water and ICE powder induces polarity

from a non-polar material. Oils, esters, preservatives and other active

ingredients can be incorporated into this ‘base’ and can be mixed

directly into the emulsion.

26

Stabilizers comprise a variety of compounds that are able to main-

tain the function and activity of other ingredients such as, for exam-

ple, active ingredients, fragrances and essential oils. In this group

there are also several agents that are used for stabilizing the pH value

thereby avoiding excessive acidity or alkalinity. A balanced pH value

is particularly important for creating stable emulsions. As many ingre-

dients are barely soluble in water special solvents may be necessary

to bring such ingredients into solution. Typical solvents include glyc-

erin and propylene glycol.

The HLB System A common method for choosing an emulsifier is the Hydrophilic-

Lipophilic Balance (HLB) system which uses a scale of 0 to 20

based on their affinity for oil and water. Emulsifiers with low HLB-

values are more lipophilic (bind oils), while higher HLB com-

pounds are hydrophilic (bind water).

In general, emulsifiers with HLB-values of 3 – 8 give w/o-emulsions,

whereas those with values of above 9 are more water-soluble

and result in o/w-emulsions.

Emulsifier Properties Depending on the HLB Value • HLB 1 - 3: Antifoaming Properties

• HLB 3 - 8: w/o-Emulsification

• HLB 7 - 9: Wetting Properties

• HLB 9 - 18: o/w-Emulsification

• HLB 15 - 20: Solubilizing Properties

How to Avoid Unstable Emulsions Although emulsifiers help stabilize the oil and water phase, emul-

sions are still inherently unstable and eventually will separate. The

speed at which this occurs depends on the composition of the

emulsion. There are 3 ways how an emulsion can destabilize:

Creaming or Sedimentation: A fatty cream appears due to the

assembly of the large drops(example: unhomogenized milk).

Creaming can be reversed by agitation.

Flocculation: Small flocci are formed. Flocculation is not a serious

destabilization since it can be reversed also by agitation.

Coalescence: The oily and watery phase are completely sepa-

rated due to merging droplets to form large drops. Coalescence

is irreversible. By selecting the adequate emulsifier (w/o or o/w

type) and using it at an appropriate concentration, everybody

can make great emulsions without expert knowledge.

Thickeners form a very important group of ingredients for formulating personal care products. In gen-

eral, thickeners enhance the consistency, volume and viscosity of a product, thereby providing more

stability, better performance, and often also a nicer appearance. While some thickeners have also emul-

sifying or gelling properties, the majority of thickeners have the ability to retain water on the skin and act

therefore also as moisturizers. Thickeners can be all-natural like waxes or gums but many are synthetic.

Typically, thickeners have a polymeric structure like gums, polysaccharides, proteins, silicones, or cellulose

but they can also be small molecules as sodium salt (e.g. in shampoos), alcohols, or waxes.

Thickeners

Waxes are complex mixtures of alcohols, fatty acids and esters.

They are harder, less greasy and more brittle than fats, and are very

resistant to moisture, oxidation and microbial degradation. Waxes

very useful cosmetic ingredients based on their various advanta-

geous properties such as protecting, film-forming, emollient and thick-

ening effects. They provide stability of cosmetic products and en-

hance their viscosity and consistency.

Polymers represent a significant share of raw materials used in

cosmetics. Both natural and synthetic polymers are used as

thickening agents, film formers, resinous powders, and humectants.

Polymers are molecules consisting of a large number of identical

units. The number of the repeat units is called the degree of poly-

merization. Polymers can be classified into natural polymers like pro-

teins (e.g. keratin), sugars (e.g. gums) and synthetic polymers like

petroleum-based polymers (e.g. acrylic esters) and silicones. Most

natural and synthetic polymers have various properties and can be

used in different functions such as thickeners, gel builders, styling

agents, fixatives, conditioners, pearlizers, emollient, and film-formers.

Waxes Used in Personal Care Products

Beeswax: It is the purified wax from the honeycomb of the bee

Apis Mellifera. For each eight pounds of honey made by the bee,

one pound of wax is produced. The primary component of bees-

wax are esters (more than 70%) of which myricyl palmitate forms

the main part. Beeswax comes usually as white flakes with a faint

honey odor. It is soluble in oils and warm alcohol, but insoluble in

water or cold alcohol. Beeswax is used primarily as thickener and

emollient, but has also emulsifying properties. It is used in a large

variety of cosmetic products and personal care products.

Carnauba Wax: It comes from the leaves of the Brazilian palm

Copernicia Cerifera. It is the hardest natural wax known, with a

melting point above 80oC (176oF). These properties make car-

nauba wax very unique and often carnauba wax is used mainly

for its hardness and high melting point. Carnauba wax contains

more esters (about 85%) but less wax acids (2-3%) compared to

beeswax. Carnauba wax can raise the melting point of oils and

fats making it an important ingredient for solid sticks (e.g. lipsticks)

to prevent them from melting upon sun exposure.

Candelilla Wax: It is produced from the stems of the Mexican

weed Euphorbia Cerifera. Candelilla wax consists of only 35% es-

ters, but of more than 50% hydrocarbons. It is therefore much

softer than carnauba wax, but can still raise the melting point of

stick cosmetics. Candelilla wax also gives a nice gloss to lipsticks.

Mineral Waxes: Mineral waxes used in cosmetics are ozokerite,

paraffin, microcrystalline wax, ceresin, and petrolatum. All waxes

are derived from various processes of crude oil refining and are

purified extensively to allow safe use. Mineral waxes have been

widely criticized and avoided in the last few years, mainly be-

cause they didn’t fit into the new trend of natural cosmetics. How-

ever, mineral waxes are a natural product and among the best

characterized and clinically tested compounds!

Silicones for a Silky Skin Feel Silicones (occur in nature as silicates in sand) are polymers with

unique properties and have numerous benefits in all aspects of

personal care. They are superb emollients providing great slip and

can feel like silk on the skin. Silicones also act as skin protectant,

conditioner, pearlizer, film-former, moisturizer, thickener, and emul-

sifier. As silicones are very mild, they are often used to reduce irri-

tation of harsh surfactants. Claims that silicones in any form cause

or worsen acne have not been substantiated in research, nor

have reports that silicones are irritating or "suffocate" skin.

Cleansing agents cleanse and build foam by acting at the surface between fat and water (surface-

active agents or surfactants). They are able of being mixed with water and fat of the skin, allowing dirt

to be removed. Surfactants form the base of all personal cleansing products and can also have wet-

ting, conditioning, emulsifying, & thickening effects. Surfactants are also very useful for making soaps to

improve lathering and decrease harshness. They are added to the oil-lye mixture during the boiling

procedure. Surfactants greatly accelerate and improve the soap making process.

Conditioners Conditioners are special surfactants (quaternary ammonium com-

pounds) carrying positive electrical charges, thereby neutralizing the

negative charges of the hair that occur especially on dry hair. The

effect is a reduction or elimination of static electricity on the hair and

the ‘fly away’ associated with it. Conditioners also improve detan-

gling, combing and give shine and luster to the hair. Proteins in condi-

tioners help repair damaged hair by refilling shed cuticle scales.

duce perspiration and thus reduce the moist climate in which bacte-

ria thrive. Aluminum-based complexes react with the electrolytes in

the sweat to form a gel plug in the duct of the sweat gland.

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation can produce erythema and pigmentation on the skin. When directly

exposed to the sun, there is 10 to 100 times more exposure of UVA than UVB. UVB (considered the

Burning Ray) has an immediate, harmful impact on the skin within minutes. UVA (considered the

Aging Ray), which you do not feel, can damage the skin by penetration deeply into the dermis

able of producing premature aging, wrinkles, and tumors. Sun screens are able to avoid chemi-

cally or physically UV radiations (UVA and UVB) to penetrate the skin layers. They provide effective

protection from the skin damaging effects of the sun rays. Chemical sunscreens act by absorbing

UV-light. Physical sunscreens reflect or scatter UV light. Efficacy of sunscreens depends upon their

UV-absorption, concentration, formulation, and ability to withstand water.

Sunscreens

Please Note: If you intend to sell sunscreen products please be aware that, on June 14, 2011, U.S. FDA issued new rules for sunscreen prod-ucts. These present dramatic changes to current regulations and rules by U.S. FDA for suncreen products. New labeling and testing require-

ments are effective for all sunscreen products. Many common phrases used on sunscreen products, such as "sunblock," "waterproof,"

"prevents skin cancer," etc. are no longer permitted by U.S. FDA. In addition, specific testing must be completed for each sunscreen prod-

uct before other claims about the product's UVA and UVB protection can be made.

Sunscreen Labeling Includes Now UVA The FDA has proposed that sunscreen labeling be expanded to

provide a rating system that informs consumers how well the

product protects them against "Ultraviolet A" (UVA) light. UVB

light is primarily responsible for sunburn. UVA light penetrates the

skin more than UVB light does, and causes tanning. Both types of

UV light contribute to premature skin aging, skin cancer, and

other types of skin damage. Currently, sunscreen labels are re-

quired to carry a "Sunburn Protection Factor" (SPF) value that

informs consumers how well the product protects against UVB

light. Now, a new UVA star rating system is being introduced.

More info is available at www.fda.gov/ForConsumers.

The most effective sunless tanning product available today is dihy-

droxyacetone (DHA). As the colorless sugar interacts with the dead

skin cells located in the outer layer of the epidermis, a color change

occurs which usually lasts about seven to ten days from the initial

application. Self-tanners should not be confused with bronzers which

can be found in powder or cream form and, unlike self-tanners, can

be instantly removed with soap and water. Erythrulose is another self-

tanning agent that, together with DHA, produces a natural, deep &

even tan (DHA alone may create an orange tone & stripes). Erythru-

lose prolongs the tan and leaves the skin less dry.

Self - Tanners

Description : FDA-approved self-tanning agent obtained by bacterial degradation of natural phosphate sugar, pH 4-6, soluble in water & alcohol. Off-white, fine crystalline powder, no odor. CAS# 96-26-4. INCI Name: 1,3-dihydroxy-2-propanone. Properties : DHA reacts with proteins in the skin thereby forming melanoidin-like brown com-pounds within 2 hours producing a suntanned appearance, this tan does not protect against UV-rays like the melanin-tan produced by sunbathing. Use: Add to formulas as is, use level 2-8%, DHA may lose its tanning effect (or induce discolorations) when combined with AHA‘s, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, iron oxide pigments, or certain perfumes. Applications : All kinds of self-tanning cosmetic products including creams and lotions, cream foundations.

Fragrances & Preservatives Cosmetic products become easily contaminated by microbes as cosmetics contain water, oils,

peptides, and carbohydrates which form a very good medium for the growth of bacteria and mold.

All these factors contribute to the fact that cosmetic products need very good preservation to pre-

vent microbial growth and spoiling of the cosmetic product and also infection of the skin. Preserva-

tives are active ingredients able to prevent the growth bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Our perfume Ingredients are all oils of the highest quality available

and are designed especially for personal care products. Most oils are

a blend of natural oils and specific aroma compounds which make it

possible at all to create stable fragrances and scents. All fragrances

are strictly undiluted, full-strength oils that have not been cut with

solvents. This allows you to use much less oils. The level of fragrance

you will need to use varies according to the product type and per-

sonal preference. Typically, a face cream may contain only 0.01%

fragrance, while a soap bar might range from 0.5 - 3.0% fragrance.

Colorants are classified as either organic or inorganic depending on their chemistry. Both or-

ganic and inorganic colorants are available in dry form or liquid form dispersed in castor oil. Micas

are another important group of colors and very fun to work with. Their colors range way beyond

the rainbow, and mixing creates even more unique and beautiful shades. In addition, micas can

provide exciting sparkle and glitter effects.

Inorganic colors are composed of insoluble metallic compounds

which are mostly derived from natural sources. Based on their com-

position they are divided into iron oxides, zinc oxides, carbon blacks,

chromium oxide greens, and ultramarines. Inorganic colors are used

mainly in solid makeup such as lipsticks, lip gloss, powders, and eye

liners. As inorganic pigments are not irritant to mucous membranes,

they can be used in the eye area.

Organic colors (lakes and dyes) are chemically complex mole-

cules but are often soluble so that they can be used not only in solid

cosmetics, but also in aqueous products as nail lacquer and liquid

makeup. Since certain organic colors can be irritant to mucous mem-

branes, they must be certified by the FDA. There are three certifica-

tions: FD&C = colors that are for use in food, drug & cosmetics; D&C =

colors that are for use in drug & cosmetics including those in contact

with mucous membranes; External D&C = colors that are for use in

drugs & cosmetics that do not come in contact with mucous mem-

branes.

Our pigment blends are a mixture of different iron oxides including

iron oxide yellow, red, brown and black and titanium dioxide. Blends

are typically used in foundations and face powders. When further

mixed with mica pigments and other cosmetic colors, however,

these blends can also be used for making lipstick, lip gloss, eye

shadow, blush and lip liner pencils. Many more shades can be cre-

ated by adding titanium dioxide, more of the various iron oxides, or

simply by blending the different pigment blends with each other.

When pigment blends are used to make liquid foundation they

need to be dispersed in an emollient using a mortar and pestle. Only

then the colors will develop fully. Likewise, for making mineral

makeup the pigment blends need to be blended with mineral pow-

ders using the mortar and pestle.

Products may display the USDA Organic Seal and must display the certifying agent’s name and address. Organic : Product must contain at least 95% or-ganically produced ingredients (excl. water, salt). Remaining product ingredients must consist of nonagricultural substances approved on the Na-tional List or non-organically produced agricultural products that are not commercially available in organic form, also on the National List. Products may display the USDA Organic Seal and must display the certifying agent’s name and address. Made with more than 70% organic ingredients : Products contain at least 70 percent organic ingre-dients and product label can list up to three of the organic ingredients or “food” groups on the princi-pal display panel.

Rewards Program

MakingCosmetics offers you the opportunity to participate in a Rewards Program. This program provides extra discounts to customers that

shop at MakingCosmetics.com. The more you shop, the more opportunities to save money on future orders!

How to Earn Points • For every full $1.00 in product purchases you will earn 1 point. Points will be held in your account as “pending” until your payment has

been approved and the order has shipped. After that your points will become active for loyalty rewards and you are eligible to use

your point for savings.

• Points can also be earned on orders where you redeem your points. Even without creating an account you still can earn reward

points. However, only an account allows you to check the status of your earned and used points.

• Points can be earned only upon launch of the program (10/15/2011). Points cannot be applied retroactively to orders that have

been placed before 10/15/2011.

How to Redeem Points • Points can be redeemed at a conversion rate of 40 points per one dollar. So, if you want to pay with your points for an item that costs

$20.00, you would have to use 800 points. This redemption conversion rate equates to a savings of 2.5% on each order applicable as

a discount on a future order. Reward points can also be combined with coupons.

• To check your points just log into your account where you can see the point accumulation and the history of orders. The page will

also reflect points that have been removed from your account for reasons such as product refunds and point redemption.

• When you start the checkout process our system will verify the order against your point balance. If you are eligible to redeem points,

you will be presented with the opportunity to use points for savings on that order. If you prefer to grow your point bank for larger fu-

ture savings, you can also save the points and not use them on this order. There is a lag time of 5 days to redeem points earned from

a previous order.

• If you choose to redeem the points, check the box "Use My Reward Points" and the dollar amount of the savings will be shown on

your invoice under "Discounts" and the total dollar for products purchased is reduced. Points can not be redeemed when checking

out via Paypal Direct, Amazon Checkout, and Google Checkout.

How to Order The fastest and easiest way to place an

order is through our secure website at

Payment Options We accept a variety of payment options

including credit cards (Visa, Amex, Master-

card, Discover), Google Checkout, Ama-

zon Checkout, Paypal, checks, money or-

ders, and bank wires.

Shipping in the USA Orders within the US are generally shipped

with FedEx Ground, USPS Priority or USPS First

Class. However, you can also choose FedEx

Expedited services. Please note that FedEx

does not deliver to P.O. boxes. Orders

above $500 will require signature confirma-

tion. Packages can be tracked on-line.

Insurance can be added at buyer expense.

USPS Express Mail indemnity coverage of

$100 is included automatically. Coverage

up to $5,000 is available also for Priority

Mail. There is a handling fee of $3.00 on all

packages.

International Shipping We offer 3 different shipping options for

international packages including FedEx,

USPS and Bongo. Bongo provides interna-

tional customers their own US address

which allows you to make purchases with

us as well as other US based online retailers

and have the goods shipped to your inter-

national address all together whenever you

want. Bongo customers can save up to 82%

off typical international shipping cost. There

is a handling fee of $3.00 on all packages.

Back Orders All products are usually in stock and readily

available. However, although we are con-

stantly increasing our inventories, it may

happen that an item runs out-of-stock.

Please advise us you desire the item back-

ordered as out-of-stocks are not automati-

cally back-ordered.

Return Policy Products are returnable in the event of

shipping error or if items are damaged or

spilled. We must be contacted within five

days of receipt of the order to authorize the

return. We then will pay for shipping and

reship the new item. All sales are final after

five days. If orders are returned to us with-

out authorization and/or after five days of

receipt we reserve the right to send it back

to the customer without notice or charge a

restocking/discarding fee of 25% of the

original purchase price.

If packages are damaged upon receipt,

you must contact us immediately and also

the shipping carrier immediately in order to

make a claim as we can not take responsi-

bility for damaged packages. We will then

file a claim with the carrier.

Refunds Refunds for returned or cancelled items are

credited to your credit card the purchase

was made from. If you have paid with a

different payment system (e.g. Google

Checkout) we will use the same system to

give you the refund.

Prices Although we strive to maintain low prices,

they are subject to change due to market

fluctuations. Prices do not include sales tax,

shipping and handling charges.

Sales Tax For residents of the State of Washington

(WA), a sales tax of 9.5% is applicable

(subject to change) unless we have a valid

WA State Resale Certificate on file. If WA

residents are not charged taxes for any

reason, we reserve the right to charge

taxes even after a purchase has made.
