International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients

The International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients (INCI) is a group of unique identifiers for cosmetic ingredients such as waxes, oils, pigments, and other chemicals that are assigned in accordance with rules established in 1973 by the Personal Care Products Council (PCPC), previously the Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association (CTFA). INCI names often differ from systematic chemical nomenclature or from more common trivial names and is a mixture of conventional scientific names, Latin and English words.
