The widespread applications of cosmetics in modern life make their analysis particularly important from a safety point of view. There is a wide variety of restricted ingredients and prohibited substances that primarily influence the safety of cosmetics. Sample preparation for cosmetic analysis is a crucial step as the complex matrices may seriously interfere with the determination of target analytes. In this review, some new developments (2010–2016) in sample preparation techniques for cosmetic analysis, including liquid‐phase microextraction, solid‐phase microextraction, matrix solid‐phase dispersion, pressurized liquid extraction, cloud point extraction, ultrasound‐assisted extraction, and microwave digestion, are presented. Furthermore, the research and progress in sample preparation techniques and their applications in the separation and purification of allowed ingredients and prohibited substances are reviewed.
