INCI is it? English Lesson

To determine whether a cosmetic product is valid or not, it is important to know which active ingredients have and in what quantities. But even before that, we must be sure that it is not harmful to the skin or the environment!

To understand this is important able to read the INCI, which is the label of ingredients. There are in fact lists the components of the product quantity order: first those in the higher dose, then gradually those in lower doses (1%, 0.1% etc...) Do not make the mistake of believing that if an ingredient is approved, either automatically or effective harmless: no risk of allergy, the accumulation of comedogenic, even scientific studies linking cancer to certain ingredients or pollution of rivers and the environment. So ... eye!

But to interpret an incident should not be chemical cosmetologists. Some ingredients or active ingredients are repeated in many products (such as tocopherol or vitamin E), and there are specific sites that help in the undertaking. In the famous Italian Biodizionario, which allows you to search for ingredients and buckles green dots, yellow or red depending on the brevity or harmful. If you know English, however, there is the famous Skin Deep. You can look for the ingredients, tell you what they are and in which products are located, and gives a score from 0 (very safe) to 10 (evitare!), and also lists the scientific studies that prove dangerous suspect.
