Solution

The contribution of chemistry in the cosmetic is:​
  • Water, emulsifiers, preservatives, thickeners, moisturisers, colours, and scents are all common elements in cosmetics (chemicals are being used for the preparation). ​
  • Ingredients can be natural or synthetic, but their potential impact on human health is mostly determined by the chemical compounds from which they are created (due to knowledge of chemistry) ​.
