Abstract
Herbal cosmeceutical is a rapidly growing category in the field of cosmetics and personal care products. The safety perception is the major contributing factor for the growth of this category. Therefore, the design of these products requires introspection from seed to shelf stage of the product. From good agricultural practices, through selection of ingredients for the base formulation, herbal research to eco-friendly packaging are the aspects that need to be considered to design herbal cosmeceutical products that are safe to environment and safer to consumers. This chapter talks about ways of making a cosmeceutical formulation base green, current herbal knowledge and future research perspective, regulatory considerations and industry approach to herbal products in terms of product claims.
