Society of Cosmetic Chemists
The Society of Cosmetic Chemists (SCC), founded in 1945, is a learned society (professional association) based in the United States that supports scientific inquiry in the field of cosmetic science.[1][2] The Society publishes the bimonthly Journal of Cosmetic Science.[3][4] Together with Société Française de Cosmétologie, SCC also publishes the International Journal of Cosmetic Science.[2][5]
History
Founded in May 1945 in New York (some says 1948[2]) following the suggestion of Mr. Maison G. de Navarre, the Society of Cosmetic Chemists (SCC) had 23 founding members with Mr. Freddie Wells being its first chairman.[2][6][7]
In 1959, the SCC became a founding member of the International Federation of Societies of Cosmetic Chemists (IFSCC).[2]
As of 2023, the SCC has over 6,000 members globally at all degree-levels.[1] The Society has 19 Chapters throughout the United States and Canada which each conduct monthly meetings, hold educational seminars, and publish monthly newsletters.[8]
Funding
The primary source of income of the SCC is from membership dues, but also receives donation from stakeholders of the cosmetic and personal care industry.[9]
Educational and professional activities
The SCC holds a national meeting once a year in New York City, and a national scientific meeting once a year in various cities around the country.
It publishes a scholarly bimonthly journal, the Journal of Cosmetic Science: The Official Journal of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, as well as various monographs about cosmetic testing and cosmetic ingredient technology.[4] Together with Société Française de Cosmétologie in France, SCC also publishes the International Journal of Cosmetic Science since 1979.[2][5]
