Highlighting functional changes in the structure of the epidermis and the stratum corneum,
this book presents overviews of clinical and consumer testing approaches together with ex vivo
evaluation procedures. It covers key aspects of personal moisturizing and washing products, such
as efficacy and formulation of moisturizing ingredients, safety and regulatory guidelines involved in the
formation of skin-improving technologies, development of new products, and effects of consumer testing
approaches. The book explores the science behind formulating a moisturizer and uses it to the criteria for
evaluating and
recommending moisturizers.
