Pearl powder can play the role of health care and beauty, while fake pearl powder can not only protect health and beauty, but also endanger the health of consumers because of the excessive total number of Escherichia coli. So, how to identify its authenticity? Introduction is as follows:

High-quality pure pearl powder: raw materials are high-quality freshwater pearls, carefully selected and washed, produced according to drug quality standards, and passed the inspection.

Texture: the powder is white, uniform in color and free of impurities.

Handle: It feels delicate and smooth, and is easily absorbed by the skin.

Smell: It smells slightly fishy, but there is no other peculiar smell.

Fake pearl powder: Fake pearl powder is generally made by heating mussel shells with alkaline water and lime, then removing the black on the surface, crushing, sieving and packaging.

Texture: take a small amount of powder with your fingers, spread it out in the sun or light and observe it carefully, and you can find obvious flash. This is mica.

Color: obviously whiter than pure pearl powder.

This fake pearl powder is mixed with hydrolyzed animal protein powder, and mica will stick to the stomach after long-term use.

Inferior pearl powder:

Texture: The main raw material of this powder is the powder drilled during pearl jewelry processing, mixed with talcum powder.

Color: yellowish, mainly caused by high temperature and high heat during drilling.

Smell: there is a burning or smelly smell when taking it.

Black steel needles drill holes in pearls by heating and rotating, and the fragments of black steel needles fall into powder, which contains a large number of metal bodies. Long-term use will cause chronic poisoning. Therefore, when consumers buy pearl powder, they must go to regular big pharmacies and medical supermarkets and look for well-known brands. They must not be deceived by greed and loss.
