Cosmetics are commonly considered essential and play an important role in daily life for individuals. The younger generation has a significant expense for beauty items. This generation prefers high-quality skincare and hair care products that enhance their appearance. The minerals and vitamins that make up the antioxidants are all natural. Antioxidants can protect against free radicals, which can destroy amino acids, lipids, and DNA. Dead skin cells accelerate aging, causing indications of aging, such as under-eye circles, dullness, dryness, and a loss of suppleness. When antioxidants are employed in beauty and skincare products, they can reach the skin's innermost layer. Antioxidants help to restore and regain living cells. Antioxidants make the skin look and feel younger. Moreover, the increased popularity of selfies and social media is driving the cosmetic antioxidants market.

This aspect is predicted to drive global demand for cosmetic antioxidants in the future years.

Restraining Factors        

To prevent rancidity, chemically produced antioxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and propyl gallate are often utilized in cosmetics. However, there are some concerns about their safety. According to research, BHA and BHT may be carcinogenic and cause allergic reactions. Propyl gallate, too, has been associated with allergic responses. Natural antioxidants produced from plants and food sources, on the other hand, are considered safer options, however, their efficacy in avoiding rancidity may be reduced. To assess the safety of synthetic antioxidants, consider aspects such as concentration, product type, and individual vulnerability. Consider the concentration in the product, the type of application, and individual sensitivity when evaluating the safety of chemically generated antioxidants in cosmetics.
