Cosmetics and personal
care products are used in enormous quantities all over the world. It
leads to the ongoing, covert release of cosmetics and personal hygiene products
into the environment. All of these have an effect on life because they are
bioactive, extremely persistent in the environment, and also capable of
bioaccumulation. Any product used externally on the body, such as the skin,
nails, hair, lips, and external genital organs, or applied internally, such as
the teeth and mucous membrane of the oral cavity, for oral hygiene, to keep
them clean, protect from germs, prevent bad odour, change in appearance, and
keep in good condition, is considered personal care or cosmetics.
Due to human activity, such as
bathing or washing, they are therefore more likely to enter the environment in
large quantities and cause more trouble for ecological systems. Common examples
of daily use personal care and cosmetic products include soaps, hair dyes, nail
paints, fragrances, emulsifiers, ultraviolet absorbers, acrylates,
preservatives, and antioxidants. Some of these are harmful to your health, and
prolonged exposure to chemical cosmetics like these can increase your risk of
developing cancer, endocrine disruption, mutation, allergy, and reproductive
toxicity.
