In daily life, women who love skin care only care about the brand and packaging of cosmetics when they buy cosmetics. Because everyone’s skin is different, the suitable skin care products are also very different. The raw materials of cosmetics are often overlooked. Do you know there are preservatives in cosmetics? Are preservatives good or bad for cosmetics? And that will give you a new idea of what hydroxylacetophenone is as a preservative.
4′-Hydroxyacetophenone: plays a quality role in cosmetics
I don’t know when cosmetics companies began to advertise perfume free advertising in cosmetics. No perfume and no preservatives became an important publicity technique. What are the dangers of preservative-free cosmetics?
Cosmetics raw materials are mostly oils and nutrients, which deteriorate after microbial infection, resulting in a decline in product quality. Cosmetics deterioration is often shown as turbidity, precipitation, discoloration. Acidic products produced by microbial metabolism change the acidity of the product, and the resulting gas causes foaming, affecting the appearance and odor of the product. Toxins produced by microorganisms can cause discomfort, redness and even skin infection, or even septicaemia in severe cases. Therefore, the production of cosmetics requires a certain degree of antisepsis to increase display time and use time after opening.
The main function of preservatives is to maintain the freshness of the product and avoid bacterial and fungal infections. Inferior preservatives can cause skin damage, and frequent contact can cause allergic reactions. Therefore, the preservatives used in our skin care products and cosmetics must be mild in nature and stable in ingredients. 4′-Hydroxyacetophenone is the safest high-temperature auxiliary active stabilizer in the medical field. It is often used as a preservative in cosmetics and is harmless to the skin. It is said that many cosmetics and skin care products do not add preservatives, but using 4′-Hydroxyacetophenone instead of preservatives, the skin has no side effects at all, because the properties of 4′-Hydroxyacetophenone are very stable.
4′-Hydroxyacetophenone is equivalent to a panacea for cosmetics. By acting on the cell membranes, cell walls, enzymes and other targets of microorganisms, it destroys cell division, inhibits the growth and reproduction of bacteria, achieves the purpose of antiseptic, and maintains the quality of the cosmetics within its validity period. Therefore, the public must treat preservatives in a correct and reasonable manner.
