“…The waxes, dyes, pigments, and solvents are the main components of cosmetics and they are naturally non-volatile and permanent. [1,18] The human attraction with beautification dates back thousands of years. Moreover, as time passed, people became more worried about the quality of cosmetics and the effects individuals had and also, there are different types of diseases caused by the cosmetics and they have been found as trace evidence in different types of forensic crimes.…”

“…There are many high-quality cosmetic products on the market, that contain very few metals and non-metals and may be beneficial to human health because they are not much adulterated with any harmful chemicals and also there are some low-quality or lowcost cosmetic products that can have a negative impact (toxic) on both the human body and the environment. [1] There are different kinds of skin diseases caused by cosmetics. Cosmetic toxicity may be caused by inorganic (metallic) components such as chromium, arsenic, lead, antimony, mercury, and cadmium, as well as chemical molecules such as chemical preservatives and harmful by-products.…”

Most people utilize cosmetics to enhance or improve their physical appearance, regardless of their gender, race, or age. Heavy metals (HMs) are impurities or ingredients in many cosmetic products. According to recent studies, these metals can result in a variety of skin and health issues. Numerous studies demonstrate that the mismanaged formulation of such products without sufficient standardization of toxic metals throughout the production process is the primary reason for the high level of HM contamination in the samples. In order to prevent human exposure to such dangerous HMs, it is vital to monitor and manage the fate of HMs in cosmetic items, especially unbranded ones. Due to the wasteful interest of producers in making extra profit, the standards are not being imposed. Moreover, consumers are also ready to compromise with the product due to their unawareness of its hazardous impact on their skin and bodies. Short‐term results on their looks may cause fatal effects on their health. Another significant issue that requires attention is the lack of safety regulations in the country for evaluating HMs in cosmetic products. Additionally, there is an urgent need to establish acceptable limits for potential impurities in cosmetic products that must be enforced at local levels. This review provides a comprehensive insight into the content of HMs in cosmetics and their effects on several organs and the site of application.

“…From an analytical chemistry point of view, hair care products are considered to be complicated matrices containing numerous organic and inorganic compounds, thus requiring extra sample cleanup steps prior to the end-point analysis. Representative recent analytical applications in hair care products are presented in Table 1 [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ]. As can be seen in the examples of Table 1 , solid- or liquid-phase extraction steps are quite common even when sophisticated LC-MS instrumentation is employed, while dry ashing/wet digestion are necessary for the determination of inorganic analytes.…”

In this communication, we describe the first analytical method for the determination of free histidine in hair care products (shampoos and conditioners). Cation-exchange chromatography combined with postcolumn derivatization and fluorimetric detection enabled the accurate (recovery: 83.5–114.8%) and precise (2.4–5.6% RSD) determination of free histidine without matrix interferences at concentration levels down to 1.5 mg kg−1. Real commercially available samples were found to contain the amino acid at levels ranging between 70 and 535 mg kg−1.

“…Main ingredient of cosmetics are some surfactants, oils and other ingredients which are required to be active, long durable, sustainable and safe for human use. Since the modern civilization, most of the cosmetics industries produce synthetic products because of easy manufacturing process and possibly to avoiding the dependency on the natural raw sources [1,2].…”

The paper highlights the metallic contents of cosmetic product includes whitening cream and lipstick of different brand and colour and they are commonly used products in Bangalore city. Sample were analysed to determine the heavy metals like Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe) and Nickel (Ni) using Atomic absorption spectrophotometer (F-AAS). The heavy metals like Cu, Fe and Ni were detected in all the samples with varying concentration except iron, iron was below detectable level in lipstick samples. The concentrations (ppm) of Iron (Fe) ranged between BDL and 4.4881ppm in both lipstick samples and whitening creams samples. The concentration of Copper (Cu) ranged from 0.5392ppm to 0.5054ppm in lipstick samples and 0.5704ppm to 0.495ppm in whitening creams. The concentration of Nickel (Ni) ranged from 28.2911ppm to 26.713ppm in lipstick samples and 31.383ppm to 27.670ppm in whitening cream. The partial elimination of heavy metals from cosmetic products after manufacturing can be possible. However, the quality of the products can be improved by consideration of raw materials and heavy metal levels. The excessive use of cosmetics should be discouraged by public awareness. Therefore, efforts are necessary to make aware of the users and the general public especially pregnant women and children about the harmful consequences of cosmetics use. It is suggested to regular monitoring of heavy metals and chemicals used in cosmetics as pose health risk among the users.
