Claims Validation for Cosmetic

The consumers ask manufacturers the guarantees, the efficacy of cosmetics that (by law) can not boast therapeutic activities. Claims state the main qualities of the formulation (moisturizer, anti age, sebum regulator …). These statements can not be traced back to the use of active ingredients, but to the evaluation of the effectiveness of cosmetics in its overall formulation, due to the withdrawal from trade and heavy sanctions.

Veritable Clinical Trials conducted under close medical supervision on an appropriate number of volunteers should be carried out and then statistical results should be interpreted. Only competent and adequately trained personnel can successfully use the technologies required for this validation.

The validation process of the claim ends with a report that is delivered to the producer. Only then the functional value of the cosmetic can be writed on the label and indicated by the body certifying it.

In order to proceed to this specific validation there is a need for a recruitment facility, expensive quantitative analysis technologies (corneometers, sebumeters, pH gauges, ultrasound instruments, colorimeters, photometers for hair analysis …), specific professional competence and a large number of volunteers.

The Cosmetics

As in the past, we still want successful liquid herald amulets. We know, however that no real Elixir of youth or Aqua Mirabilis were ever produced by the alchemists: they separated the matter, purified the spirit from the phlegm, got fresh water from the sea water and therefore remained immortal in their tenacious dream of success.

Even today, as before, flowers grow on our hill and cosmetics and fragrances are produced. Here in Casalvento, among the ancient walls of Salingolpe, the Etruscans, in the Villanovian age, jealously kepts the sectrets of producing balms and perfumed ointments. The aromatarius ancient Rome shops used to sell the promise of youth enclosed in precious amps to the fascinating women of that period.
