[1] Kozmetika was officially formed in 1978 by Vladimir Jovanović (guitar, vocals), Marko Pešić (synthesizer), Slobodan Konjević (bass guitar) and Mihajlo "Miško" Mihajlovski (rhythm machine programming), although Jovanović, Pešić and Konjević had been working together since 1974, first in the band Dijamantski Psi (Diamond Dogs) and then under the name Spajalice (The Staples).

[2] They spent four years recording the album, working patiently on each track with numerous guest appearances.

[3] Inspired by the works of Brian Eno as well as the current musical trends, the band used a technique in album production similar to the one which would later be known as sampling, creating their own vision of art rock.

[3] However, due to uncommunicative sound, the album failed to reach much feedback from the audience, with only the song "Utisci", featuring Nebojša Krstić on lead vocals, becoming a minor hit.

Kozmetika was polled in 1998 as the 98th on the list of 100 Greatest Yugoslav Popular Music Albums in the book YU 100: najbolji albumi jugoslovenske rok i pop muzike (YU 100: The Best Albums of Yugoslav Pop and Rock Music).
