Nanotechnology-Based Cosmetics

Potential for Inhalation Exposure in Face Powders

I'm cross-posting here from my Cosmetic Chemistry Blog on Medium to share about the potential health risks posed by nanoparticles in cosmetic powders.

The posts are based on a research paper titled "Potential for Inhalation Exposure to Engineered Nanoparticles from Nanotechnology-Based Cosmetic Powders" published in Environmental Health Perspectives.

The researchers investigated the potential for inhalation exposure to nanomaterials when using nanotechnology-based cosmetic powders.
