Cosmetics are formulated with ingredients from all over the world
They are listed in the International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients – known as INCI

The use of some materials is restricted by legislation
In the EC this includes antiperspirant actives, preservatives, colours and sun screen materials
Creativity associates these restrictions with each material affected
