CNDSN March 12th news [] (Sina fashion) a recent Crest whitening toothpaste advertising fraud was fined 6030000 news gives consumers a wake up, all kinds of magical effect on product advertising may be only PS, in addition to do false propaganda by image, film and television, advertising language also has exaggerated, or mislead consumers phenomenon. Today let small make up for you to expose some cosmetics industry behind the common language of advertising the truth, after the buy buy buy when long dessert! Ad 1: pure natural ingredients The truth: the product contains pure natural ingredients said, only hinted at the component from plant or organic matter, rather than synthetic. The term "natural" aroused widespread concern among consumers, many people think that natural ingredients must be safe or effective. But when the plant extracts added to the product, after corrosion, stable treatment, in phase mixing with other ingredients, basically has lost its "natural". Ad 2: no preservatives The truth: there is no real sense does not contain preservatives, skin care products, even without adding production of preservative, also cannot guarantee the raw material without preservatives. But do not add preservatives, and how to prevent microbial growth? The more commonly used method is to replace the antiseptic to microbes can survive the solvent. But it and common preservative, has addressed the risk of pox. More importantly, the antibacterial effect of this kind of composition difference, especially bottled cream products in Kaifeng, basically are direct digging by hand, the repeated use of the cosmetics, it is difficult to avoid the pollution two. Ad 3: spring water save sensitive skin The truth: the hot spring water is very famous in France, it contains a variety of minerals, can be to help the skin The new supersedes the old. and supplement the trace elements, with the treatment of skin diseases, so as the auxiliary material for skin care products will be safer, more effective, a lot of MM praise spring water as a protective umbrella for sensitive skin. But not all of the hot spring water is suitable for sensitive muscle, in fact, acid hot springs water is more suitable for healthy skin, carbonated hot spring water is more non healthy skin care. Ad 4: no alcohol The truth: many people will take the product whether the alcohol as the main basis whether to use this product. In fact, in many cases, the wrong people to understand the alcohol. Alcohol is a common ingredient in skin care products, often used as a solvent, it can play a stabilizing role of plant active ingredients, can also help clean up horny skin metabolism. Of course, alcohol does to skin have a certain stimulus and drying effect, generally speaking, the larger the content of the stimulus, stimulus is more evident, but if alcohol is listed in the table at the end of before and after the composition of preservatives, it shows that the content is very low, will not stimulate the skin. Ad 5: No fragrance The truth: originally this is used to tell the consumer products do not contain flavor or aroma components, but the fact is not necessarily so. Many products are selected plant extracts fragrant, so may cause skin irritation, cause allergic reactions or phototoxic reaction (intensified sun damage). Whether natural or synthetic spices do not belong to the skin beneficial ingredients. And "does not contain fragrance" this term is not subject to FDA regulation, so the column has no meaning in the product label, surface composition finally you must pay attention to the product. Ad 6: low sensitivity or suitable for sensitive skin The truth: the two term implies that consumers will not cause allergies, but this has no meaning, in fact, does not exist to test the product to determine will not cause skin allergies aspects of the regulatory standards, any cosmetic companies are free to use these two terms. Since there is no clear definition and standard, cosmetics companies in the use of these terms does not need to study to confirm. Ad 7: instantly smooth fine lines and wrinkles Truth: without any external anti wrinkle ingredients can instantly smooth fine lines and wrinkles, molecular glue glial component but has adhesive ability can. Don't feel sleep without any anxiety, glial component easily by hydrolysis, water still standing after the wrinkles. Ad 8: the baby can use, mothers to use The truth: the baby can use skin care products, do not stimulate the skin to mom, just, these products cannot meet the demands of the age of the mother maintenance. Women over 25 years of age, the skin will change greatly, repair force decreases obviously, at this time of the skin care needs, must by the infant moisture protection to enhance skin repair capacity, deep moisturizing promote cell energy. At this time, the baby oil will appear, mothers or buy a bottle of suited to their demand for products. Ad 9: silky smooth feeling The truth: want to make cosmetics have silky smooth feeling, does not really add in the product of silk extract true, and is usually the use of silicone elastomer such as raw materials to create the so-called smooth feeling. Only siloxane can create satin smooth but not sticky oil touch. The addition of ingredients in skin care products, the use of modified pleasure harmless, but much penetration will hinder subsequent product. Ad 10: explosion water technology, hydraulic conversion technology The truth: the market once the fire is boasts water cream burst water science and technology, mostly with the use of silicone emulsifiers and 90% about 10% of the water, the silicone water (W/Si) cream body. Because silicone emulsifier ratio is low, so there will be similar to a high proportion of water in a very thin egg shell, a little hard to rub, moisture is broken shells drop out of action. The silicone emulsifiers is not breathable, when water droplets hatched, silicone emulsifiers have been covering on the surface of the skin after the shell is broken, water, most difficult to enter the stratum corneum. Ad 11: adding high concentrations of snail slime, 100% snail slime The truth: the so-called adding high concentrations of snail slime products either cream or essence, there will be such as maltose as sticky and elongated filamentous glioma. But in fact this is adding macromolecular PEG (polyvinyl alcohol) created texture, has nothing to do with the snail extract. Snail extract does not contain such as mucosa thickness. Be honest, large molecules of PEG to skin no harm, but too much adhesive sense cause skin airtight, but easy to plug the pores of acne. * (original title: Crest false advertisements were severely exposed behind the surprising truth of cosmetic advertising language) Editor: Blue
