您有想過怎樣定義“質素”嗎? 一般來說，我們常說的“高質素”及“低質素”，又是什麼？您們量度“質素”的準則又是什麼? 由名牌產品以至到快餐店，每個品牌背後都有一套維持質素的哲學。
現在就讓我們認識怎樣去尋找有質素的健康及美容產品。在市面上現時有很多有機及天然的產品。若您對草本成份安全性沒有認知，您便不能正確地選購安全的護膚品。
您對美容產品的標籤是怎樣釐定嗎? 產品的標籤一定要列明所有有關產品的資料。通常最容易遺漏的資料是草本成份的安全性。您可能會在產品標籤上看見類似“不含有害化學物質”的聲稱，但您有否看過關於草本成份安全檢測的資料? 當一間公司於護膚品採用草本成份，您又怎樣知道那些草本植物沒有被污染，沒有受真菌或細菌感染, 或沒有天然植物毒素呢? 只有有良好研發背景的公司才有能力及技巧處理這些問題。若那間公司沒有標明成份的安全認證，那您大可對那些產品質素作出保留了。
一件高質素的草本美容產品應進行過草本成份安全測試。以後每逢購買任何美容產品，最好問清楚美容顧問關於成份安全檢測的資料。畢竟，每當您做多一步，都是為自己長遠的肌膚健康投資。
Beauty Product Quality and Ingredient Safety
Have you ever thought about how to define “quality”? In general, we always say “good quality” and “bad quality”. But what are they? Do you know what your quality parameter is? From designer goods to fast food corner, every brand has its own way to maintain its quality.
Now let's us understand how to look for quality in health and beauty products. These days the market is offering a wide range of organic or natural products. Without understanding about herbal ingredient safety, you cannot have the right product.
Do you ever understand the format of beauty product labelling? Product label must describe all about the product to the consumer. The most common thing missing from the label is herbal ingredient safety. We have seen product clams using no harmful chemicals, but have you seen products claiming that their ingredients are checked for safety? When a company uses herbal ingredients, how do they know that the herbs are not polluted,not infected with fungus and bacteria, or do not contain any natural plant toxins? Only good companies with proper research and development background have skills and are able to address this key issue. If ingredient safety is not addressed, you can keep your reservation about the product quality.
A herbal beauty product with good quality should come with a herbal ingredient safety test. From now on, whenever you buy any beauty products, it is better to ask the beauty consultant about ingredient safety. After all, you are investing in a long-lasting beauty for yourself.
