The book also addresses the pressing need for sustainable development in the beauty industry, aligning with global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this book, through scientific research and practical applications, readers will gain insights into how natural and eco-friendly ingredients are revolutionizing skincare and cosmetic products.
Divided into 3 main parts, the chapters cover a wide array of topics, including the role of herbal extracts in achieving SDGs, sustainable cosmeceuticals using natural colorants from plants, and the potential of zooceuticals derived from animals. Readers will also discover groundbreaking research on cosmetics sourced from marine algae and mushrooms, as well as green biotechnological applications in aesthetic medicine. The book closes with a section dedicated to future trends and challenges, exploring cutting-edge technologies such as gene array technology and nanotechnology in skincare, while addressing critical issues like microbiological safety and cosmeceutical legislation, and providing a Life Cycle Assessment perspective in eco-cosmeceuticals.
Given its breadth, this book is an essential resource for researchers, scholars, and practitioners in the fields of cosmetic science, biotechnology, and environmental sustainability. It invites readers to consider how these innovations can transform the future of beauty products, and it is particularly valuable for those interested in integrating eco-friendly practices into their work or studies.
