Cosmetics is a necessity of life for each woman. Hair, tattoo, white, cream, beauty lip, Breast, etc., are inseparable from the cosmetics. However, cosmetics are chemical compounds, although the protection and beautification of the human body functions, but also a variety of harmful substances essential for health.
American Herbal Association believes that more than 60% of the skin care ingredients enter the body through the skin surface, other words, if cosmetics toxic or synthetic materials, will increase the heart, liver, kidney and other organs of the burden of toxins, which harm health.
The United Kingdom in October last year, a study reported that British women are the most European countries the use of cosmetics, purchased last year cost about 64 various cosmetics billion pounds, the average daily use of 12 kinds of cosmetics, at least 175 kinds of chemical substances, average annual absorbed through the skin or the mouth about the chemical substances 2.25Kg.
Therefore, if the improper use or abuse of cosmetics, will endanger the health, ranging from a stimulating effect on the human skin, weight is caused "cosmetic dermatitis," and even cause cancer, life-threatening, not only by the beauty that cosmetic result, they became Beauty make-up of the trap. It can be said is the deadly temptation of cosmetics!
Temptation 1: makeup remover
Cosmetics containing chemicals, the most worrying are light-based preservative benzoic acid. Statistics show that 99% of the items on the makeup remover and 77% of light contain benzoic acid. Light benzene acid will destroy hormones. Evidence suggests that they mimic the female hormone estrogen, if women lifelong exposure to estrogen may increase the risk of breast cancer. One study shows that benzoic acid appears in the light of breast cancer tissue samples as high as 90%, may also damage the male reproductive capacity.
Essence contained in cosmetics, paint raw materials are mostly based on synthetic coal tar products, some of which are carcinogenic. Some hormones have a serious impact on human health of cosmetics, skin care, such as steroid cream, the skin can show a transient soft white smooth, once the wrinkles will be more disabled, more shriveled old. Eyelid cream, facial cream containing talcum powder, is very similar to the molecular and asbestos, the use of escaping air, with breathing into the lungs, can cause respiratory problems, asthma and even lung cancer.
Another troublesome chemicals are triclosan antimicrobial agent and insecticide. It is widely used in toothpaste, soap, household cleaning products and bath milk. Triclosan is likely to cause cancer, chlorobenzene phenols.
Temptation 2: hair
Long-term frequent use of hair dyes may cause permanent damage to the human body. Because the hair dye process, to use a large number of oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide, sub-sodium, formaldehyde, sodium bisulfite or sub-reducing agent and so would like the hair and scalp damage to some extent, causing the scalp pityriasis (dandruff ), scalp seborrheic dermatitis and contact dermatitis. Hair dye chemicals benzene, heavy metals, salts, can also be absorbed through the skin, in a number of long-term, after repeated exposure to these substances, leading to accumulation of these toxic substances in the body, while the damage blood, liver, kidney and other systems, the human body cause permanent damage.
Therefore, studies have found that the urine of women, hair dye, hair dye can be found in ordinary matter contained in the mutation, suggesting that the hair dye absorbed by hair, the possibility of cancer. American Cancer Society recently conducted on 13,000 women hair survey found that the number of women suffering from leukemia is 3.8 times that of women without hair. And women use hair dye, increased risk of lymphoma, 70% chance.
Temptation 3: perm
Perm strongly basic principle is the destruction of the hair perm agent organizations key to form a new hairstyle. Poorly in the hair perm, medicine will be more harmful to the hair.
The main components of perm agent thioglycolic acid class of benzodiazepine amines. Mercaptoacetic acid substances can easily invade the body through the skin, the skin and mucous membranes have a strong irritant, there is strong against the destruction of the hair surface role, and has mutagenic. Phenylene diamine substance is a toxic substance on the human body has a strong irritant, allergic and toxic side effects, can lead to allergies, scalp hair loss and even increased long-term use can result in the human body accumulates more damage, and even can cause skin cancer, leukemia, bladder cancer and other cancers.

Kojic acid formula pyran in the same direction with benzene compounds and benzene from the theory is the same as a carcinogenic; Kojic acid in the body also allows the accumulation of hydroxyl radicals, it is also carcinogenic. Therefore, the Japanese government banned the import and production of cosmetics containing kojic acid.
In addition, beauty cosmetics contain lead, mercury, acid, etc., these special ingredients irritating big risk is also large. Some unscrupulous businesses in order to achieve better publicity, often in cosmetics to add an excessive amount of heavy metals, such as the excessive amount of metallic mercury can enhance the skin lightening effect.

The basic core of Hong lipstick red, rouge in eosin, flame red, and so have a strong carcinogen. All the coal tar used in lipstick and other dyes, carcinogenic substances are terrible, which substances contained in the amount of lipstick, has greatly exceeded the levels allowed in food. Without bleaching lipstick added a powerful fixative, making pigment attached to the lips, but be careful.
Person's lips mucosal tissue itself, for those hazardous substances with a certain absorption capacity, leaving them to invade the body. Also, people talking, drinking tea, eating, they will inevitably inadvertently lipstick, lip gloss and lip attachment to the mouth, directly into the body, which is hazardous to health. According to foreign Relevant data show that cancer in young women, 18.2% of the etiology and apply lipstick, lipstick on.
Temptation 6: Breast

Normal menstrual girls in particular, the body is not the lack of estrogen, if for Breast and extensive use of artificial estrogen, which inhibit the secretion of estrogen itself, the results of self-defeating, but inhibited the development of the breast. To have a family history of breast or cervical cancer for women, may increase the risk of cancer, the fetus during pregnancy also increased risk of cancer.
Temptation 7: Nail
Since ancient times, the modification of the nail is an important part of female beauty. Apply nail polish may also be due to inappropriate stimulation of a ditch, causing ingrowing damage.

Conventional nail polish formulations generally include the following components: pigments, nitro cellulose, lemon acetyl tributyl phthalate esters, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, ethanol, toluene. Among them, the pigments of different colors according to the required, but also by the potassium silicate, magnesium oxide, iron oxide, alumina fired from. Nail polish some of the pigments, solvents and penetration enhancers, such as ethanol, benzene, ketones and other long-term use will damage the deck, resulting in a crisp, a longitudinal ridge, Huang A, A malnutrition damage, improperly applied also may stimulate a ditch, causing ingrowing damage. Benzene and benzene and clinical material, long-term use, and may cause respiratory system damage and carcinogenic suspicious.

The chemical composition of each fragrance will be as many as 600 kinds. 5000 kinds of chemical components in this, only less than 20% had toxicity test, the result is both toxic, is classified as dangerous goods in many countries. Studies have found that the chemical composition of aromatic harmful to health, skin, lung and brain damage is particularly significant.
