Abstract

Cosmetovigilence is the study of cosmetic products from a public health perspective. The Saudi Food and Drug Authority has assumed responsibility for regulating cosmetic items and issuing recommendations to ensure their safety due to the drastic growth of beauty products in Saudi Arabia. Addressing the safety of cosmetic goods is widely recognized as a public health concept. In tertiary care hospitals, identify potentially dangerous impacts from cosmetic goods and take appropriate action to prevent them. The goals of this text are to cater to the demands of dermatologists, scientists, cosmetic chemists, and formulators who have to grasp a variety of topics in order to develop innovative, successful skin care products for a particular market. In addition to chemicals, physical and biological risk factors also manifest in the skin, which is the biggest organ in the body.
