ACCREDITATION CEU's - 0.2 IACET
View Course Outline

In 1973 The Cosmetic, Toiletry, Fragrance Association (CTFA) developed an industry voluntary process for assigning ingredient names that provides the consumer and medical field a common approach to understanding what is formulated in a personal care product. This process was accepted by the United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and the global regulatory community, eventually becoming known as the International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary & Handbook (INCI).

This intensive 90-minute accredited ON DEMAND course will provide a clear understanding of the current process to assign monographed nomenclature for ingredients used in consumer personal care products, along with how this is harmonized between the United States and the rest of the global community. The session will provide a snapshot of what INCI is, how it works, and how one should utilize it to meet government regulations and in communication to the consumer.

This course offers a comprehensive understanding of the global impact of ingredient back labeling, updated web registration requirements with w-INC, and new conventions, along with examples on how-to use in the development of formulations.
