INCI

INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) is an international designation for the declaration of the ingredients on the packaging of cosmetics. The INCI names are allocated by the American Cosmetic Association 'Personal Care Products Council' (PCPC, formerly CTFA) and are used internationally. The INCI designations are mainly intended to give allergy sufferers the opportunity to check the ingredients of a product before buying it.
