Beauty Cream

Definition:

Cosmeceuticals are cosmetic products that are claimed, primarily by those within the cosmetic industry, to have drug-like benefits. Examples of products typically labeled as cosmeceuticals include anti-aging creams and moisturizers. The word is a combination of the words "cosmetic" and "pharmaceutical".

The US Government's Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act does not recognize the term "cosmeceutical." It is the cosmetic industry's newest pet term.

Cosmeceuticals represent a marriage between cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Like cosmetics, cosmeceuticals are topically applied, but they contain ingredients that influence the biological function of the skin. Cosmeceuticals improve appearance by delivering nutrients necessary for healthy skin. Cosmeceuticals are the fastest-growing segment of the natural personal care industry.

According to the definition, Raiza Creme is a cosmeceutical.
