Technology of Perfumery and Cosmetics Products

Bukhara State Technical University Perfumery and Cosmetics Technology Program

Overview

Perfumery and cosmetics technology is one of the promising fields that combines modern chemistry, biology, and technology, focused on creating, manufacturing, and controlling the quality of products designed for personal health and appearance care. This program trains specialists in developing the formulation of perfumery, cosmetic, and hygiene products, selecting raw materials, organizing technological processes, and evaluating the quality of finished products.

The Perfumery and Cosmetics Technology program at Bukhara State Technical University equips students with theoretical knowledge and practical skills in designing modern cosmetic and perfumery products, managing production technologies, studying the properties of product components, and monitoring quality and safety indicators. The curriculum is combined with modern laboratory methods, innovative technologies, and practical projects.

What will you study?

• Fundamentals of perfumery and cosmetic products — the types, composition, properties, and applications of cosmetic and perfumery products.
• Cosmetic raw materials — the properties of natural and synthetic raw materials, plant extracts, essential oils, fats, vitamins, and other active ingredients.
• Cosmetic product technology — the technological processes for manufacturing creams, lotions, shampoos, gels, masks, balms, and other cosmetic products.
• Perfumery product technology — the creation of perfumes, eau de parfum, eau de toilette, and other fragrance products, including formulation and manufacturing technologies.
• Cosmetic chemistry — the study of substances in cosmetic products, their interactions, and their effects on product properties.
• Formulation and recipe development — developing product composition, determining component ratios, and creating stable formulas.
• Quality control and standardization — determining the physical-chemical, microbiological, and other quality indicators of finished products, and controlling them based on current standards.
• Packaging and storage technology — the processes of modern packaging, labeling, storage, and safe delivery of perfumery and cosmetic products to consumers.
