Phytocosmetics

Phytocosmetics is a part of cosmetology, which consists of using plants in cosmetics.[1] The popularization of the use of plants in cosmetics is attributed to the fact that these additives do not need regulation, being considered safe by the Food and Drug Administration, in addition to providing different benefits offered by the vast composition of plants that for the most part are known and enshrined by popular medicine.[2]

Flores, very used in phytocosmetics.
