Divine Cosmetics is a broad term that can refer to various cosmetic products from different brands. Here are some general information and tips on ingredients and materials that can be found in cosmetics:
-
Ingredients: Most cosmetic manufacturers can use almost any raw material as a cosmetic ingredient, with the exception of color additives and a few prohibited ingredients. It is a legal requirement to list the names of ingredients by their INCI name, which is recognized worldwide. Some cosmetics may contain active ingredients that address various skin concerns and issues such as dry or oily skin, eczema-prone skin, or to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. For example, Pat McGrath Labs Divine Skin: Rose 001 the Essence is reportedly formulated with 97% botanically derived ingredients, including rose water and ceramides.
-
Positive effects: Cosmetics can provide various benefits to the skin, such as hydration, protection from environmental damage, and reduction of the appearance of pores and fine lines.
-
Negative effects: Some cosmetics may contain chemicals that can be harmful to the skin or the environment. It is important to avoid certain chemicals, such as parabens, phthalates, and formaldehyde, which have been linked to health issues.
In general, it is useful to evaluate the ingredients of cosmetics before purchasing them. The EWG Skin Deep® Cosmetics Database is a useful resource for evaluating the safety of cosmetic ingredients. Additionally, it is important to note that good makeup does not happen without good skincare, and the use of both can elevate makeup to a professional level.
