- Abstract
The implementation of nanotechnology in the cosmetic industry has developed promptly in recent decades. Among them are sunscreen, skincare, decorative makeup, and hair colorant. The cosmetics industry is a significant user of nanoscale raw materials in its manufacturing procedures. However, the supervision regarding the safety and quality of cosmetic products containing nanomaterials (NMs) in Indonesia conducted by the Indonesian FDA remains not fully optimized. This poses a challenge for the Indonesian FDA, particularly concerning the significance of employing appropriate characterization methods and the necessity for systematic evaluation. Hazard identification, exposure evaluation, microbiological testing, and NM characterization are some methods that can be conducted for monitoring nano cosmetics. Procuring instruments for nano-analysis will be a significant investment for the purpose of monitoring cosmetic products marketed in Indonesia.
