Excuse me, are the chemicals in cosmetics harmful to the skin? Is it harmful to health?

Use Skin Whitening Cosmetics with Caution (200 1-7-9) Excerpted from: et.com.cn/ Oriental Beauty Cosmetics Resource Network Many women who love beauty pursue fair skin, which makes skin whitening and hair care products with faded pigments widely welcomed and favored by women. Therefore, Mi Leide, a British dermatologist, warned people to pay attention to the toxic chemicals such as inorganic mercury salts and hydroquinone in depigmented cosmetic preparations, which are potentially harmful to human body if used for a long time. Dermatologists point out that mercury in some soaps and skin whitening creams is usually mercuric chloride or mercuric iodide. Mercury ions can replace copper in tyrosine molecules, thus deactivating copper. Researchers believe that both organic mercury and inorganic mercury are easily absorbed by normal skin. According to related experiments, 6% of the local dosage can be absorbed within 5 hours, while inflammatory skin is more easily absorbed. Therefore, if you apply this whitening cosmetic 2-4 times a day, the chronic accumulation of mercury should not be underestimated. Medical research shows that the local toxicity of mercury can accumulate heavy metals in the skin, sometimes causing hyperpigmentation and contact dermatitis on the face and neck. In addition, the potential harm of mercury to the whole body can cause weight loss, burnout, anemia, alopecia, stomatitis, kidney injury (such as proteinuria) and central nervous system symptoms (such as headache). In view of the potential harm of skin whitening cosmetics to human body, people should use them with caution. Once local or systemic toxic reaction is suspected, urine test and blood test must be carried out to facilitate early prevention and treatment. Manicure cosmetics can cause infection and allergic reaction (from/search arc network) According to Reuters Health News, infection and allergic reaction are two main problems caused by manicure and manicure makeup. Manicure cosmetics will bring people four problems: (1) allergic reaction to the ingredients of nail cosmetics; (2) response to stimuli; (3) Factors causing trauma; (4) there are infectious conditions. Perhaps the most serious health problem related to nail makeup is contact infection caused by manicure tools that are not effectively disinfected. Tools that are not properly disinfected will bring many viruses to customers, such as HIV, warts, hepatitis B and hepatitis C. Most salons attach great importance to disinfection tools and even give or sell tools that cannot be disinfected, such as sand tables. The most allergic substances are methacrylate for nails, toluene-based substances in nail polish and formaldehyde in nail hardener. Beware of the disfigurement of hormonal cosmetics (cosmetics and beauty products from/China). Now almost every household has cosmetics, and some people use substances containing hormones to get quick results. As everyone knows, those mixed with hormones, often used, will not only affect beauty, but also cause harm to health. Some young women like to use ointment such as fluoxetine or triamcinolone acetonide instead of beauty cosmetics. As a result, their temporary pituitary function, that is, adrenal function, is inhibited, which leads to endocrine disorder and brings pain to themselves. In order to make their breasts fuller and more attractive, some women use estrogen-added "breast cream" for a long time, resulting in irregular menstruation, pigmentation, dark spots, thinning and shrinking skin and other adverse reactions. According to relevant statistics, among 50 patients with facial hormone-like dermatitis treated by a doctor in a hospital, 40 patients had facial acne and 10 patients had facial contact dermatitis. They all use hormone-containing dermatitis cream instead of beauty cosmetics to wipe their faces. As a result, hormone-like dermatitis-telangiectasia, skin dandruff and dark purple skin-appeared on the faces of people who were short for about a month and old for about two years. Therefore, beauty cosmetics containing hormones should not be used in beauty makeup to avoid the occurrence of "hormone beauty cosmetics syndrome". When buying beauty cosmetics, you should pay attention to careful selection and know its ingredients and functions in detail. When it is necessary to use beauty cosmetics containing certain hormone ingredients for the treatment of diseases or other special circumstances, they should also be purchased and used under the guidance of a doctor, and indiscriminate purchase and abuse are prohibited. In the process of use, if there are allergic symptoms and phenomena such as itching, eczema, redness, abscess and ulcer, stop using it immediately. Side effects of cosmetics 39 Health Network Many women pursue fashion and pay attention to beauty when making up, but they often pay insufficient attention to the side effects of various cosmetics. In fact, cosmetics (including all kinds of shampoo, hair dye, skin cream, facial cleanser, nail polish, etc. ) are all chemical synthetic products. It not only has the function of protecting and beautifying the human body, but also emits various harmful substances, which have a great stimulating effect on human skin, and some can also cause "cosmetic dermatitis" such as skin edema, itching and macula. The common cosmetics in life are mostly processed from various pigments, spices, preservatives, fungicides and other raw materials. Some special-purpose cosmetics also contain hair growth, hair dyeing, perming, breast enhancement, bodybuilding, deodorization, freckle removal, sun protection and other ingredients. Some people often have cheek swelling, running water, itching, dermatitis and other injuries or skin allergic reactions after using it, especially long-term use of hair dye, which not only easily causes contact dermatitis, but also causes other diseases. In cosmetics, the side effects of hair dyes cause the most allergic reactions. According to the investigation, a large number of hair dyes can easily lead to blood diseases and Hodgkin's disease. Therefore, the side effects of cosmetics should not be underestimated. On the one hand, we should use it as little as possible and not abuse it; On the other hand, we should choose carefully, and we must choose cosmetics with good quality and small side effects, which are suitable for our skin characteristics. People with a history of skin allergies should be especially careful. If you find that cosmetics have adverse reactions to Baekje skin, you should stop using them immediately. How to prevent the toxic and side effects of cosmetics In order to minimize the adverse factors of cosmetics, we put forward some suggestions on choosing cosmetics for your reference: 1. Don't wear heavy makeup. Wear light makeup in life. Heavy makeup will not only make people look weird, but also inhibit the skin from "breathing" smoothly. 2. Make-up should be intermittent. Restless skin is scarred by the endless accumulation of cosmetics. Therefore, let the skin get a proper rest. If you don't go out, don't wear makeup, just apply a little nutritional cream. 3. Don't "stick to the rules" when choosing cosmetics. Some people use this brand of cosmetics for several years or even longer in order to pursue or get used to a famous brand, which seems to be the best choice. I'm afraid there are many hazards. Any cosmetic has the property of inhibiting certain substances, so when only one cosmetic is used, some substances are inhibited and some substances are flooded, which will also bring adverse effects to the skin. 4, makeup removal should be timely and thorough. Some people don't even want to take it off when they sleep because they look good after makeup; Even some young women deliberately put on makeup at night to please their husbands, which is inappropriate. Without rest, the skin will inevitably age and rupture. 5. Identifying inferior cosmetics should be eye-catching. Buying cosmetics depends not only on appearance, but also on content. Generally, there will be some changes in the poor quality of cosmetics after expiration. For example, the color of cosmetics has changed from the original normal color to black, yellow and brown; Bubbles and peculiar smell appear; The surface presents different colors and mildew spots; Cosmetics become thinner, and the surface water comes out when not in use. 6. Carefully check the supervision label of cosmetics and choose the one with shorter production date. Develop strengths and avoid weaknesses, polish your eyes, carefully identify, and make high-quality cosmetics your beautiful partner. Be careful not to use fake and inferior products.
