Cosmetics are big business. They are used by almost every person walking on the Earth and by many students in your classroom. This program shows students how cosmetics are made and how they have been used for thousands of years. Bases, bulking agents, coloring agents, fragrances and preservatives are outlined. The making of an emulsion is demonstrated and the processes of distillation or solvent extraction explained. This is everyday science in action.
