Since the very childhood each girl dreams
to be able to handle all these fanciful tubes and boxes, which found their
place on her mother's toilet table. «You are too little» - smiled the mother.
But some time passed, and now we use decorative cosmetics without the slightest
fright, trying to create all kinds of various images.
Though we have to keep in mind that some
women still have doubts - whether they should use make-up or not? Can it be the
reason of premature aging? To drive away the doubts one should listen to the
weighty opinion of dermatologists and cosmetologists.
As you know, all decorative cosmetics is
subdivided into three groups: mass-market cosmetics, de luxe cosmetics and
dermocosmetics. The specialists say that even the inexpensive cosmetics of the
first group can't do much harm to your skin, except those cases when the
quality of such cosmetics is rather poor.
In this case it is, certainly, hard to be
sure that you can avoid appearing comedones, pigmentation and dehydrated skin.
But on the whole cosmetic means of mass-market group don't cause accelerating
of ageing process and don't do any harm to your organism.
De luxe cosmetics, except general
protective characteristics and easiness of its usage, contains components,
which moisturize the top layer of your skin; mineral screens, protecting you
from ultraviolet rays; microsponges, which absorb the surplus of sebum,
antioxidants and antiradicals and in this way prevent such phenomenon as
photoageing. Problems may arise only in case of individual intolerance of this
or that cosmetics component.
So, only cosmetics of poor quality or
out-of-date cosmetics may harm your organism. High quality decorative cosmetics
is the cosmetics whose safety has been tested - i.e. it doesn't have any
irritating of allergic effect and is noted for its good organoleptics (nice
