Description:

The 15 edition the Book International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary & Handbook provides the most comprehensive listing of ingredients used in cosmetic and personal care products.

The combined Dictionary & Handbook contains 21,000 monographs of International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient (INCI) labeling names for the United States, the European Union, and other countries.

These are cross-referenced to more than 68,000 trade and technical names and 3,000 suppliers from 100 countries.

The 15th Edition contains more than 1,700 new INCI names since the last edition!. Before 2008 the PCPC was known as the Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association (CTFA).

This society was first organized in 1894, and was known from 1935 until 1971 as the Toilet Goods Association. Its task was to look after the interests of the Association’s members, and in the 1940s it developed standards for cosmetic ingredients. Later, it generated a comprehensive list of cosmetic ingredients and distributed a master list, compiled from the memories of 20 companies in response to a request by CTFA, which was then sent to all CTFA members for comment. Eventually, under the chairmanship of James Akerson, CTFA was able to publish the first edition of the CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary in 1973. It consisted of just over 250 pages.

The first edition became recognized officially in the USA as the controlling compendium to be used by manufacturers preparing ingredient labels for their products. When the fourth edition was published in 1991, CTFA acknowledged its growing international popularity, particularly in those countries considering labelling legislation, and changed the title to the CTFA International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary. Now, combined with the previously separately published Handbook, the compilation has become the standard reference on ingredient names for cosmetic companies throughout the world.
