Abstract

Chemicals in skincare products are very critical because they not only have an influence on the safety of cosmetics but also on all aspects of the human body and life. For sensitive skin, a particular type of skin that should avoid cosmetics containing harmful chemicals, it is significant to evaluate the toxic and protective mechanism of products by using scientific methods. Besides, using the experimental data to explore the protective and toxic effects of functional skincare products on sensitive skin is more clear to clarify the pathophysiology, biochemical changes and particular clinical manifestations of skin diseases. These phenomena occur after the skin contact with chemical substances, and the dynamic process of the chemicals damages the skin barrier and percutaneous absorption. By observing the performance and improvement of sensitive skin protection before and after the experiment, the research evaluates the toxicity of the different chemical substances in skincare products on sensitive skin. The research in this article is also helpful for people to use skin care products reasonably and promote skin health.
