Explain the eight misunderstandings of herbal extracts

Many people now think that plant extracts or herbal extracts or cosmeceuticals are the best. The factory's trademark list is natural, non-preservative, soothing, healthy, and even has the function of repairing the skin, making everyone think "the best of nature." Of course, there are many plants in nature that can be a source of our daily necessities or skin care products. However, there are many exaggerated or plausible ideas, which have caused unrealistic fantasies among consumers under the help of manufacturers. Let's take a look at these myths!

Cosmeceuticals may not contain preservatives

1. Low-sensitivity herbal extracts do not cause allergic reactions!

The right concept: The term “low sensitivity” was first used in the cosmetics industry by the Essence Lauder product Clinique. If cosmetics are to claim low sensitivity, they must first undergo repeated skin tests to determine if there is any possibility of allergies. However, in reality, many cosmetic companies do not do this. Therefore, it is claimed that low-sensitivity herbal cosmeceuticals may cause skin irritation!

2, herbal extracts have no preservatives!

Correct concept: Declaring that there is no preservative is actually a wrong concept. All cosmeceuticals contain preservatives, and unless it is a creamy oil like petrolatum, there may be no preservatives. Preservatives exist to avoid rancidity or oxidation of chemical components and to prevent the growth of bacteria or microorganisms. Some preservatives are antioxidants such as tocopheryl acetate, ascorbic acid, or retinyl palmitate, while others are bactericidal ingredients such as Kathon-CG, Bronopol, parabens, or phenoxyethanol. Some preservatives have a scent, such as eugenol. Therefore, it is meaningless to claim a cosmeceutical containing no preservatives. At best, it can only be said that it does not contain preservatives that cause allergies.

3, the essence of herbal extracts will not be allergic!

The right concept: Any substance can have an allergic reaction, so the use of herbal extracts must be safe. Before using any cosmeceuticals, including perfumes, it is best to use them continuously for five to seven days on the inside of the arm. It is safe to use in other areas without allergies.

4, herbal cosmeceuticals will not cause acne, but also can control oil!

Correct concept: This sentence is also meaningless. Any cosmeceutical product that claims to not cause acne still needs to be tested in the traditional way, confirming that it is not acne-prone. Not all herbs are safe. At present, there is no real scientific evidence for oil control that the herbal extract can effectively control oil. In the current science, most of the ingredients that can effectively control oil are based on the characteristics of adsorbing oil, rather than actually inhibiting skin oil. The most famous ones are high molecular weight polymers composed of IBMA (isobornyl methacrylate), LMA (lauryl methacrylate), and DVB (divinylbenzene). However, this was not taken out by plants, but was developed industrially to absorb oil.
5, herbal cosmeceuticals can improve skin firmness!

Correct concept: In fact, this is a less correct concept. Tightness generally refers to the tension of the skin caused by muscle contraction. Skin cosmeceuticals generally do not really penetrate the muscle layer to shrink muscles. Most cosmeceuticals or masks at most improve skin smoothness, color, and texture.

6, the most natural safe!

The correct concept: the essence of herbal extracts is indeed from nature, but it must be subjected to a series of chemical treatments and processing, in one respect, it is actually not natural. In fact, when the chemical components in all cosmeceuticals are produced and synthesized, the raw materials are also taken from the earth's material. In one respect, it is also "from natural"! Therefore, claiming to be from nature does not make much sense. Moreover, not all natural substances are the safest. Some natural plants, such as poison ivy, are very susceptible to skin allergies.

7, the more herbs extract the better!

Correct concept: not necessarily good! Especially for people with sensitive skin, the more ingredients represent the higher the chance of causing skin allergies! Take a bottle of herbal cosmeceuticals, sometimes containing 20 to 30 herbal extracts. When a problem occurs, it is difficult for a dermatologist to trace what ingredients cause an allergic reaction.

8, plant extracts containing particles for washing your face can be deep clean!

Correct concept: Herbal remedies containing abrasive particles are just like the cosmetics or skin care products that usually contain granules. It is impossible to clean the sebaceous glands. At most, it removes the acne floating on the skin surface or causes the skin to exfoliate. Effect. Therefore, cosmeceuticals that claim to be deeply cleansed require special care when used. As a result of over-cleaning, it may cause sensitive skin. If you really want to use herbal abrasives containing granules, it is better to use skin care products containing sodium tetrahydrate decarborate granules, which will gradually decompose during the washing process without causing skin damage!
