Triethanolamine dalam kandungan produk anda??

Apa itu Triethanolamine?

Ramai tanye sis pasal status kandungan dalam produk yang kami jual, samada berbahaya ke x. So, meh sis nk gtau tentang apa itu Triethanolamine. Triethanolamine merupakan sejenis cecair yg agak likat, jernih dan bau macam Ammnonia (odor smell). Dalam kosmetik dan juga personal care products bnyak yg guna bahan ni such as eyeliners, mascara, eye shadows, blushers, make-up bases, foundations, as well as in fragrances, hair care products, hair dyes, wave sets, shaving products, sunscreen dan hamper diguna dalam skin care produk. Ini kerana, bahan ini berfungsi untuk membentuk emulsi dengan mengurangkan tegangan (surface tension) pada produk dan juga diguna utk mengawal pH pada bahan kosmetik. So, bahan ini berfungsi utk mengawal keacidan produk kita. Oleh itu, don’t worry la, this product is not acidic, so not harm our skin.

Based on Safety Information: Jom kita baca,

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) :

Triethanolamine, Diethanolamine and Ethanolamine has been assessed by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel. The CIR Expert Panel evaluated the scientific data and concluded that Triethanolamine, Diethanolamine and Ethanolamine were safe for use in cosmetics and personal care products designed for discontinuous, brief use followed by thorough rinsing from the surface of the skin. In products intended for prolonged contact with the skin, the concentration of Triethanolamine and Diethanolamine should not exceed 5%. Ethanolamine should be used only in rinse-off products. Triethanolamine and Diethanolamine should not be used in products containing N-nitrosating agents to prevent the formation of possibly carcinogenic nitrosamines.

Produk ini tidak mengandungi N-nitrosating agents, so no side effect bila menggunakan produk ini, even though there is Triethanolamine, so selamat untuk dipakai ye :)
