Nutritional Cosmetics
Beauty from Within
A 2006 study by Kline & Company found that the global nutritional cosmetics market was valued at $1bn, a figure the company says is set to double over the next five-year period. With companies such as Nestlé launching products in this sector, nutricosmetics’ promise of ‘beauty from within’ has started to generate a media buzz around foods and nutritional supplements designed to deliver skincare, haircare and beauty outcomes.

Nutritional cosmetics is an emerging area of intense research and marketing and encompasses the concept that orally consumed dietary products can support healthier and more beautiful skin. There are numerous dietary ingredients now being marketed for their potential skin health and beauty benefits and many of these are supported by growing scientific evidence. The purpose of this book is to compile the scientific evidence showing the potential benefits of some of the more extensively researched ingredients. As far as possible, information about the benefits of ingredients consumed orally for skin health is presented.
