Abstract

Powders are the ingredients that make cosmetics “eye-catching”. Furthermore, there is powder surface design that makes powders even more attractive. In this report, I will first introduce surface treatment methods that directly change the powder surface and surface treatment methods that coat the surface with other substances. I will then explain the effects obtained through surface design. Specifically, these features give cosmetics new functions and appeal, such as “improved stability”, “make-up effect”, “improved usability and makeup durability”, “effects on the skin”, and “deodorizing effect”.Finally, I will also explain the impact of cosmetics regulations such as “microplastics regulations” on powder surface design.
