Cosmetic ingredients are emerging pollutants too. Their environmental monitoring is at a very early stage. However, it is known that they reach the environment in multiple ways, often through water, posing health risks to marine and freshwater ecosystems and to humans. Thus, in public health science, the term “cosmetovigilance” began to represent a kind of health surveillance where the aim is the safety of the cosmetic product for commercial purposes. This surveillance is very important to control potentially hazardous ingredients and can thus set our minds at ease on the products placed on the market. In recent years, the cosmetic industry has increased its use of preservatives, surfactants, perfumes, stains, and other ingredients in the creation of cosmetic goods. On the one hand, such chemicals improve the quality, properties, and shelf life of cosmetics; on the other hand, many of these substances are poisonous to humans, posing health concerns ranging from a moderate hypersensitivity reaction to anaphylactic shock or even death. As a result, the indiscriminate use of cosmetics might become a public health concern. There is more scope of future research in this field as there are large number of cosmetics products which are untouched from this perspective.
