Nano- cosmetics, the new revolution in cosmetics, keeping us all glowing and even more gorgeous than ever. Greater UV protection, deeper skin penetration, longer-lasting effects. Tiny little engineered particles significantly improving product performance. Amazing!
As a manufacturer, I now by law must list my natural hair products on the CPNP European Portal, the cosmetics police. I’m wondering whether the fact that studies show a range of adverse effects related to nano -particles such as being linked to genetic damage in mice, as part of the reason we in Europe are on the cusp of the introduction of new cosmetics legislation.
The rise of this new revolution means that by July 2013 every EU manufacturer must register whether they are using nanotechnology in their products and depending on the size of the particles, list this information also on their labels.
Consumer information or risk mitigation?. ……You decide.
