Packaging plays a great role in the branding of cosmetics products. The overall look of a cosmetic product is one of the most important determinants of it market appeal, besides its quality. Cosmetic packaging should be easy to brand. It should allow the name for the product, the brand and other necessary information like composition, usage instruction and warnings to be printed as required. The container should be designed in such a way that they can allow the product to come out but not go in. this is to prevent the contamination. Almost all cosmetic products have a seal or a component which is broken when they are opened for the first time. This ensures that the product is brand new and hasn’t been tampered. The four main aspects that matter …show more content…
• The packaging must have a suitable size, thus rubber may present problems if it perishes
• The material must protect from light i.e. it must be ultraviolet absorbent
• The container must not absorb substances from product. E.g. absorption of water from creams into cardboard
Chemical Properties
• The container and the closures should not react together, either alone or in the presence of the product. This can occur with certain combination of dissimilar materials
• The product should not react with the container or the closure, as might happen if alkaline substances are placed in aluminium containers
• Substances should not be extracted from the product, such as the loss of bactericides from glass, plasticizers from plastic etc.
Biological Properties
• The material of the container must be able to withstand attack by insects if this hazard is likely to be encountered
• The packaging should not support mould growth. The risk is greatest with cellulosic substance and if the use of such materials is unavoidable, the attack may be minimized by

We all know that cosmetics existed thousands of years ago. Cleopatra used a heavy arsenal of beauty aids to help her shake the foundations of the Roman Empire. Yes, cosmetics and perfumes have a long history, but the consumer industry we live in is relatively recent, a creation of the decades 1890 through 1920. The products hawked in the 19th Century by druggists, perfumers, barbers, physicians, and a colorful assortment of other enterprising individuals were primitive by our standards. Certainly, active ingredients were used with abandon, notably arsenic, lead, and mercury. These were products that really made visible differences, and the consumer was well-advised to be wary of the majority of these mysterious concoctions.
The protective packaging industry can be segmented three ways by use: positioning, block, and bracing; flexible wraps; and void fill. Coated (e.g., AirCap) and uncoated air bubble products serve the flexible wrap and void fill markets (refer to Glossary). The flexible wrap market, which dwarfs void fill as measured by annual sales, is of primary concern to Sealed Air and will thus constitute the focus of this report.

Ensure gloves are worn at all times when handling strong acids and bases within the experiment of the preparation of benzocaine. 4-aminobenzoic acid (3.0g, 0.022 moles) was suspended into a dry round-bottomed flask (100cm3) followed by methylated sprits (20 cm3). Taking extra care the concentrated sulphuric acid of (3.0 cm3, 0.031 moles) was added. Immediately after the condenser was fitted on, and the components in the flask were swirled gently to mix components. It should be ensured that the reactants of the concentrated sulphuric acid and the 4-aminobenzoic acid were not clustered in the ground glass joint between the condenser itself and the flask. In order to heat the mixture to a boiling point, a heating mantle was used and then further left for gently refluxing for a constituent time of forty minutes. After the duration of the consistent forty minutes the rou...

One of the questions people may ask is does a label indicate the quality of a dietary supplement product. It is difficult to determine the quality of a dietary supplement product from its label but, the degree of quality control depends on the manufacture, the supplier, and others in the production process. In 2007, the FDA issued good manufacturing practices for dietary supplements, also a set of requirements and expectations by which dietary supplements must be manufactured, and prepared and stored to ensure quality. Manufacturers are now expected to guarantee the identity, purity, strength, and composition of their dietary products. For example, the GMP‘s aim to prevent the inclusion of the wrong ingredients, not to mention the addition of too much or too little of a dietary ingredient, increases the possibility of contamination, pesticides, heavy metals such as lead, bacteria, etc., and the improper packaging and labeling of a product. Another question is are dietary supplement standardized? Standardization is a process that manufactures may use to ensure batch to batch consistency of their products. In some cases, standardization involves identifying specific chemicals known as markers that can be used to manufacture a consistent product. The standardization process can also provide a measure of quality control. Dietary supplements are not
