Harmful Substances in Cosmetics and Impact on Ocean
Summary
This article examines the toxicological profile of microplastics, heavy metals, and active ingredients in cosmetics and their hazards to the biosphere, humans, and marine environments. Microplastics in cosmetics can leach toxins into the ocean and act synergistically with other pollutants to increase overall toxicity to living organisms.
The article expresses the toxicological profile of micro plastics, heavy metals and active ingredients on cosmetics. The focus is on pollution hazards to the biosphere, humans and the environment. Animals easily absorb plastic particles, which not only spread throughout the food chain, but have also been shown to exist in humans. While the micro plastics in cosmetic bags themselves can leach toxins into the ocean, synergies between micro plastics and other pollutants can increase the toxicity of micro plastics to living things. Cosmetics are also harmful in the use of processing additives, polypropylene like absorb organic pollutants. In the future, in order to reduce the environmental pollution of cosmetics, we should use green cosmetics and reduce the use of packaging bags.
