HISTORY OF

root was used in face powder,”

Ancient China
• rice powder was used to whiten and smooth out the complexion (globally-used
white powders was their service as, you guessed it, a status symbol). The whiter
and smoother your complexion, the higher class status you were.

In the Middle Ages

with flour and used harsh natural bleaches, such as lye, to get rid of freckles.”

were used to mattify and reduce shine on the face. “Perspiration and oily
secretions could also be rectified with powder, making it useful in places where
summers were warm and women were more likely to ‘glow,’”.

1920s and 30s

common shades [were] White, Natural, Flesh and Rachel/Brunette but some

regularly updated to match the season's fashion trends.
IMPORTANCE OF
INGREDIENTS
1. Covering Materials: These materials should be able to cover small
imperfections, enlarged pores and minor blemishes of the skin. The covering
power of powder is high, when its surface area is more..This can be achieved if
the particles are in finely divided form. Medium in which these covering materials
are dispersed plays an important role for imparting efficiency. Dry skin offers
better covering power compared to moist skin.

2. Adhesive Materials.

3. Slip Materials: Slip character helps in easy application and spreading of the
powder on the skin, which in turn provide smoothness to the skin.

4. Absorbent Materials: these materials should be able to eliminate shine from


the skin surface by absorbing the secretion of the skin i.e., sebum and perspiration
(sweat).
5. Colouring Materials: These materials are mainly used in the
formulation of face powders and compacts in order I impart colour

6.. Perfumes: Flowery fragrance or synthetic odour are used in the


formulation of powders.Perfumes should be compatible with the other
ingredients in the formulation. Otherwise, the perfume character will
change.

7. Binders: These ingredient to compact the product into a breakage


resistant cake

4. Absorbent Materials Colloidal kaolin, starch, bentonite

5. Coloring Materials Iron oxide, ultramarine, organic lakes and pigments

6. Perfumes Flowery fragrance or synthetic odour


7. Binders
