## Description

Cosmadex is an independent, chemistry-focused encyclopedia dedicated to providing comprehensive information about cosmetic ingredients regulated by the European Union. Founded and curated by Julia, a biochemist with advanced degrees in chemistry, Cosmadex serves as a crucial resource for both consumers and industry professionals. Unlike many ingredient databases that primarily reflect American regulations, Cosmadex emphasizes the stringent EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009. This regulation prohibits approximately 1,400 substances and imposes strict labeling requirements for allergens. 

The platform distills complex regulatory data into accessible explanations for non-chemists, enabling users to better understand the safety and compliance of cosmetic products they encounter daily, such as shampoos and lotions available in European stores. Although it includes valuable regulatory information, Cosmadex is not intended as medical or legal advice. Users are encouraged to consult qualified professionals for personalized guidance regarding cosmetic safety and compliance.
