AFTER SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Rejection of Papers Submitted: Papers not prepared in accordance with these directions or deemed to be
outside the scope of articles published in the JOURNAL will be rejected by the Editor.
After the paper has been reviewed by the editor and reviewers, the senior author will be sent any
comments that need to be addressed. If necessary, the senior author must submit a revised paper, as well
as a document referencing the line numbers that contain the changes and details regarding the changes,
which will be reviewed by the Editor prior to being approved for publication. If the revised paper is still
not acceptable, the Editor may reject for publication. Authors have 6 months from the date they received
the comments to submit a revised paper. If a revised paper is not received within that timeframe, the paper
is considered withdrawn.
Page Proofs: After an author's paper is accepted and before final publication, page proofs will be emailed
to the senior author for careful review and correction. Proofs should be verified against the paper and any
alterations annotated in the PDF. The Publication Committee does not accept this responsibility.
Alterations in an article after it has been typeset will be made at the author's expense, and the author will
be billed for such changes. Corrected page proofs must be returned within 10 days to the Journal office.
Offprints and Reprints: The senior author of each paper will automatically receive a PDF copy of the
final version of their manuscript on the issue’s publication date. The author will also receive 2 months
complimentary access to the Journal of Cosmetic Science recent issues online.
Charges: There are no page charges. Any material set into type but ordered deleted from publication at
the page proof stage must also be paid for by the author. These charges will be invoiced to the senior
author at the time of publication.
