Cosmetics/Detergent

What are cosmetics and detergents?

They can be defined as chemical substances that we frequently use in our daily lives and are produced for various purposes. Both cosmetic products and detergents should be carefully analyzed and their contents should be regularly inspected in order not to harm the user's health. Cosmetic products are products such as lotions, creams, shampoos, perfumes, etc. used for skin care, personal cleaning and beauty applications. These products support skin, hair and body health and can be safe and effective when formulated with the right ingredients. Detergents are chemicals that are used for cleaning and dissolve dirt, stains and oils. They include laundry detergents, dishwashing detergents and surface cleaners.
