Anti-aging wrinkle? Cosmetics are not so god!

The words “anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, and mites” are almost everywhere on cosmetic packaging, and these words will be considered illegal in the future. From September 1st, the "Regulations on the Administration of Cosmetic Labels" began to be implemented. Cosmetics with the words "anti-wrinkle", "except sputum", "sterilization", "activate cell organization" and other words to express or imply medical effects on the package will be fined up to 10,000 yuan.

At present, almost all cosmetic brands have anti-wrinkle, anti-aging, anti-sensitive, oil control, whitening propaganda, and this is also the focus of sales staff. In view of the fact that some cosmetic manufacturers still have a certain amount of cosmetic packaging stocks, in order to save resources, the State Administration of Quality Supervision decided that cosmetics produced and processed before October 1, 2009 can continue to use the original packaging logo.

In addition, the "Regulations" also require that no matter whether it is imported or domestically produced cosmetics, it should not be marked with exaggerated functions, false propaganda, derogation of similar products, express or implied medical content. So what kind of logo is content that exaggerates function, false propaganda, express or implied medical effect?

The "Regulations on the Management of Cosmetic Labels" issued by the Supervision Bureau of the Ministry of Health will exaggerate the terms of expression, explicit or implicit use of the treatment and effect language of the disease and the scope of medical terms, involving more than 180 terms. Among them, special effects, several cycles, special effects protein, improve skin anti-irritation, face-lifting, slimming, inhibit or block the formation of melanin, activate cell regeneration, bactericidal, antibacterial, mites, mites, remove toxins from the body, treat odor, Body odor, beauty treatment, prevention of dark spots, elimination of spots, anti-wrinkle, effective stimulation of important cell regeneration and metabolism are all phrases that are prohibited from labeling cosmetic labels.

Consumers believe that this regulation is a protection for consumers' rights, and it can guide and guide consumers' rational consumption by labeling effective ingredients. Experts said that in addition to protecting consumer rights, the healthy and benign development of the beauty and cosmetics industry can play a catalytic role. However, the people also have doubts. Some people may not understand the names of the more professional ingredients. Even if the full-component labeling is implemented, how can we fundamentally guarantee the consumers' right to know?

The "Management Label Identification Management Code" for the first time clarifies that cosmetics should be marked with a full ingredient list on the label, and at the same time regulate the content, form and responsibility of the cosmetics label. For the content of the logo, the cosmetics must be marked with the date of manufacture, shelf life, lot number and net content of the product, and must be marked on the minimum sales unit (package), and the label is prohibited from using the font size, color difference or suggestive language, graphics, symbols to mislead consumption. By. According to the person in charge, the meaning of asking all the ingredients of cosmetics is: once the consumers are allergic or uncomfortable in the process of using cosmetics, relevant departments can check whether there are ingredients that cause side effects according to the ingredient list to achieve protection consumption. The role of the rights of the people.

In addition, Liu Aimin, chief physician of the Department of Dermatology, Henan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that skin aging is a natural process, and cosmetic anti-aging may be ineffective. Some cosmetics add some medicines such as retinoic acid, which can play a certain anti-wrinkle function, but if the dose is too much to stimulate the skin, make the skin red. Consumers should be clear that cosmetics are health products, and “anti-wrinkle” and “de-sucking” are the functional areas of drugs.

Wang Yuping, chief physician of the Department of Dermatology, Henan Provincial People's Hospital, believes that some nutrients in cosmetics may have certain nourishment and health effects on the skin, but there is no scientific basis for cosmetics to be "anti-aging" and "anti-wrinkle".
