When Sister Rabbit went to the website of the State Drug Administration yesterday to find information, she found that some unqualified cosmetics lists had been published recently.
Except for hair dyes, most of these unqualified products are masks. I have compiled a list of these unqualified masks for you. Let's see if you stepped on thunder first.
If you want to see the full version, you can download the attachment from the official website of the US Food and Drug Administration.
The reason why these masks are on the list is basically that the total number of colonies exceeds the standard, and the degree of exceeding the standard varies. The most "over-standard" one is 87 times over the standard. (According to the current regulations, the total number of cosmetic colonies except eye, mouth, lips and children's cosmetics shall not be greater than 1000 cfu/ml or 1000 cfu/g).

This mask is applied to your face, which is equivalent to treating your face as a Petri dish for bacteria. If it is just bacteria, the problem is not particularly serious, but basically there will be problems such as damage to the skin barrier.
But if there are pathogenic bacteria in these bacteria, and you happen to have a wound on your skin at this time, it is likely to affect your health, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Left qualified, right exceeded.
Fortunately, most of these masks are relatively small and the purchase channels are limited. The chance of stepping on thunder is still relatively small, but if it is bought unfortunately, I suggest you throw it away as soon as possible.
However, even qualified masks produced by regular brands will be blacklisted because of their ingredients and sense of use.
Today, Sister Rabbit will share my "mask blacklist" with you. At the end of the article, there are some misunderstandings and knowledge points about masks. Remember to see the last ~ (don't worry, there is no advertisement)
* Tips: The following reasons for pulling weeds are only based on my personal feelings. People with different skin types in different areas may feel different when using it. Everyone should read articles rationally and pull weeds rationally.
For a lazy person like me, it takes a lot of courage to get up after work and put on a mask. Herborist's freeze-dried facial mask can dissuade me from applying it in minutes.
Its use steps are somewhat different from those of ordinary masks.
STEP 1: Tear off the aluminum foil on the mask box and take out the aluminum foil bag in the box.
Step 2: Tear open the aluminum foil bag and put the film cloth in the bag into the mask holder.
Step 3: Take 25ml of clean water out of the measuring cup (included) and pour it into the mask holder.
Step 4: Wait quietly for one minute.
Well, the gift is full.
Of course, not everyone is as lazy as I am, so its (slightly troublesome) ritual use steps are not the main reason why I blacklisted it.
This mask is mainly used to brighten skin tone, and seven ingredients with whitening and antioxidant effects are added, but the addition amount is not too much, after hyaluronic acid. The instant whitening effect is not bad, and the follow-up is average. (Oh, yes, the effect of hydrating and moisturizing is not very outstanding ...)

Although skin feeling and gentleness are commendable advantages, on the whole, it is still not as good as its single chip price near 30 yuan, and its cost performance is a bit low. If you don't care about price and cost performance, you can try it.
Although I really like Lancome, I still have to stand up and spit out this mask …
It contains alcohol, salicylic acid and high concentration of nicotinamide. The pigment content is not low, and the fragrance is heavy. Therefore, after most people apply it to their faces, they may be red, swollen and tingling.
Intolerance to nicotinamide, inability to establish tolerance, and sensitivity to muscle beauty can be temporarily ignored.

Officially, it is a sleep mask, but the texture is really like glue. It's still sticky after being applied to your face for about half an hour, and it will definitely paste a pillow when you sleep.
Even after cleaning, you can obviously feel the problem of false slip, and the moisturizing power is not lasting. For healthy skin, no obvious whitening effect can be felt after continuous use.
Although it is not expensive in Lancome's skin care products, I personally don't think it is necessary to buy it. After all, there are still many masks that are easy to use.
Yi Lian, domestic products, everyone should have heard of it. It is a brand of Freda Pharmaceutical Group, focusing on the research and development of hyaluronic acid skin care products. Its hydrating spray is my perennial necessity, but I really can't love this cleansing mask.
The cleaning ingredients used in it are mainly montmorillonite and carbon powder, and there is nothing to say about the adsorption capacity, but the cleaning efficiency that dries slowly in the mud film will be much slower than other cleaning masks.
But you want to say, "What does it matter if you are slow? Why don't you spend a little more time? " ? NONONO, let's look at its composition table.
& lt& lt& lt swipe up and down to see all ingredients >>& gt
The preservatives it uses are not too mild, especially methyl isothiazolinone. The longer this ingredient stays on the face, the easier it is to be allergic.
Therefore, if you want cleaning power, you have to take the risk of allergies. If you don't want allergies, you have to give up some cleaning power. So it looks a little lame. I suggest Jimei, who wants to start, consider something else.
I made this mask with the idea of trying more new products. After all, there are many useful products in China now, and maybe I can find some cheap ones. As a result, I realized that even if I bought cheap products, I should do more homework in advance …
This mask focuses on soothing and hydrating, but after using it, I feel that these two effects are very general and can hardly help when my skin is unstable.
Jimei, who knows something about ingredients, should know that xanthan gum can take effect by adding a little (usually 0.2%-2%), and the following ingredients will not be added too much.
Therefore, from its ingredient list and my experience, it is of little significance to add chamomile and several other active ingredients to the mask.

The main humectant is only propylene glycol, but it is also relatively cheap and common, and its hydrating and moisturizing effect is not as good as glycerol.
Of course, it also has advantages, that is, its price is really cheap, its overall composition is mild, and it is quite friendly to sensitive muscles and student parties. Jimei, which has a limited budget and is afraid that other masks will be more exciting, can buy it and try it.
Beauty mask has not been used for many years. I saw it on the shelf when I was shopping in the supermarket one day, perhaps out of goodwill (? ), I'll take a piece and stuff it into the shopping cart. When I got home, I was glad that I only bought one.
The reason why I don't like it is actually very simple. First, because the film cloth is too thick, it feels stuffy and uncomfortable to stick it on. Second, because of its large amount of preservatives and strong irritation, it will sting when the skin condition is not particularly good.

The effect of hydrating and moisturizing is ok, but I won't buy it again even if it is cheap.
As far as my character is concerned, how can I just pull weeds? I must leave some dry goods for everyone before the end ~ so at the end of the article, I sorted out a few questions about the mask. A, they are all common issues that everyone cares about.
Q: Do I have to wash off the flaky mask after applying it?
You'd better wash it off.
Because after applying the mask, the "essence" left on the face is mostly some preservatives and thickeners. Cleaning can prevent problems such as pore blockage, and it will be more reassuring.
Q: Is the longer the mask is applied, the better?
A: Of course not.
When the mask is applied, the skin will be in a relatively closed environment. If the application time is too long, it will also cause excessive hydration of the skin, resulting in damage to the skin barrier and easy to dry out. Usually 15-20 minutes is enough.
Q: Can I apply the mask directly after washing my face?
A: Yes, but it is not recommended.
Although there is no harm in applying the mask directly after washing your face, it will be better if you apply moisturizing water or muscle base first ~
Q: Will it be better to apply a mask after refrigeration?
A: Not necessarily.
For the repair after sun exposure, it may be helpful to apply a cold mask, but it is of little significance in other cases, and if you keep taking the mask in and out of the refrigerator, it will accelerate the deterioration of the mask.
Q: Can patting the face after applying the mask promote absorption?
You'd better not.
The action of slapping the face itself is of little significance for promoting absorption, and the facial skin will be in a relatively fragile state when the mask is just applied, so it is easy to damage the skin barrier by slapping hard ~ so just massage a little after applying the mask, and slapping is really unnecessary.
Ok, that's the end of today's mask, Liao ~
Finally, let me explain to you that I didn't mean to speak ill of these products or brands, but I just wanted to share my personal feelings about these products and avoid stepping on thunder.
After all, everyone's skin and usage may be different, so it is very normal to have different feelings. Again, read the text rationally and pull out the grass rationally ~
