Korean Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary (KCID) | CosIng Overview

The Korea Cosmetics Association (KCA) has been operating the Korean Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary (KCID) since 2008 and naming standardized names through the Cosmetic Ingredient Standardization Committee. The intent is to provide standardized names for use in "Cosmetic Ingredient Labeling".

The KCID includes a wide range of commonly used cosmetic ingredients, such as active ingredients, solvents, preservatives, fragrances, and colorants. Each ingredient is accompanied by detailed information, including its chemical name, functional classification, source information, and usage restrictions. This database is closely aligned with international cosmetic ingredient naming systems, such as INCI names, but has been localized to comply with Korean regulations and market demands.
