What is formaldehyde?
Formaldehyde is a colourless gas used in small quantities as a preservative and antibacterial agent. In cosmetics and hair care, you will find it in:
- Nail hardeners - for extra strength.
- Keratin treatments - to create long-lasting smooth and frizz-free hair.
- Some adhesives or eyelash serums - for fixation.
Although it may be allowed in low concentrations, many people deliberately choose formaldehyde-free products because of possible irritations or allergies.
Formaldehyde allergies
Formaldehyde allergy can occur in some people. Symptoms include:
- Redness or itching on the skin or scalp.
- Irritated eyes or airways when inhaled.
- Hypersensitivity on contact with nail products.
For anyone with sensitive skin, respiratory problems or known formaldehyde allergies, it is wise to choose formaldehyde-free products.
