The manufacture of cosmetics is currently dominated by a small number  of  multinational corporations, that originated in the early 20th century, but the distribution and sale of this spread among a wide range of different businesses.

This broad definitions includes, as well, any material included for use as a component of a cosmetics product, the FDA specifically excludes soap in this category.
