The Impact of Microplastics in Cosmetics:
Microplastics, typically defined as plastic particles ranging from 100 nm to 5 mm, have become a significant environmental concern. These particles can originate from the fragmentation of larger plastic items or be intentionally produced for use in various products, including cosmetics.
Their durability and non-biodegradable nature mean they persist in the environment long after use. Conventional wastewater treatment systems fail to filter out these tiny particles, allowing them to enter water bodies and accumulate in marine ecosystems. This not only disrupts aquatic life but also raises concerns about microplastics entering the human food chain.
Studies have shown that microbeads can carry toxic materials and heavy metals, posing severe threats to both marine life and human health. Despite these risks, many cosmetics still contain microplastics, highlighting the need for stricter regulations and greater industry responsibility.
