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,[citation needed] 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][3]
