Course Curriculum
-5. Module 1 Syllabus: Cosmetic Chemistry & Raw Materials
1. The Anatomy of a Formula
-3. Module 2 Syllabus: Manufacturing & Industrial Scaling
Transitioning from a 50ml lab sample to a 500L commercial batch is where many formulations fail. This module focuses on the mechanical energy and engineering required to turn raw chemicals into a stable, bottled product.
-2. Module 2, Section 2: Material Science & Tank Engineering (316L Stainless Steel)?
In industrial nail polish production, you aren't just dealing with "chemicals"; you are dealing with aggressive, flammable, and corrosive solvents. Your equipment must be as robust as your chemistry.
-1. Module 4: Regulatory Compliance & Green Chemistry?
In South Africa, nail polish formulation and sales are governed primarily by the Department of Health through the Foodstuffs, Cosmetics and Disinfectants Act (Act 54 of 1972) and its associated LACS Regulations
-1. Module 3: Stability Testing & Quality Control,
A beautiful formula is useless if it separates, changes color, or dries out after three months on a retail shelf. This module teaches students how to "age" a product two years into the future in just a few weeks.
