Welcome back today we will dive a little bit into the harmful ingredients….

Hi, and welcome back to SafeGlam, your go-to source for navigating the risks of counterfeit cosmetics. I’m Giorgia, and today, we’re diving into the hidden dangers lurking in fake beauty products.

Counterfeit cosmetics often contain harmful substances like lead, arsenic, and mercury—ingredients banned in most countries because of their toxic effects. Shockingly, some even include industrial chemicals like paint thinner and formaldehyde, which can cause severe skin reactions and long-term health issues.

These fakes aren’t just cheap imitations; they’re a serious health risk. The manufacturing conditions are unregulated, meaning contamination with bacteria and even human waste is alarmingly common.

So, how can you stay safe? Look for official retailers, examine product packaging, and avoid deals that seem too good to be true.

Remember, beauty should never come at the cost of your health. Stay informed, stay glam, and join me next time for more insights on counterfeit cosmetics.

Until then, keep shining and stay SafeGlam!
