Dangerous Formulas to Avoid When Buying Cosmetics

"Dream - Wearing makeup and skincare has become a necessity for everyone. It's no wonder that the cosmetics industry has grown rapidly in recent years."

"However, not all makeup and skincare products sold in the market are safe to use. Some of them do not have distribution permits and contain harmful substances."

"Perhaps, Dream friends have heard information about harmful substances in cosmetics that are often highlighted by dermatologists. Harmful substances can not only cause common skin problems such as blackheads or acne, but also spots and permanent lesions that are difficult to remove."

"Avoid and prevent the use of skincare or makeup that contains harmful ingredients by checking the labels on the packaging. Here are some ingredients in skincare, makeup, hair care products, perfumes, and other cosmetics that should be avoided for safe regular use."

"1. Metal"

"Not all chemical substances contained in cosmetics are safe for the skin and body health. The metal content in lipstick is one of the things that is harmful to skin and body health."

"Hazardous chemicals such as metal content not only cause irritation or allergies but can also trigger chronic diseases. Especially if the cosmetic products are used regularly."

"2. BHA or BHT"

"These two compounds are commonly used as antioxidants and preservatives in some cosmetic products. Although they are not very dangerous, their content can trigger allergies on the skin if used for a long time."
