The difference between children's makeup and adult makeup
People often ask whether there is a difference between children's makeup and adult makeup, whether adult makeup can be used on children, and whether children's makeup on the market is equivalent to adult makeup. We are often asked by customers about the above questions. Then, I will tell you the difference between children's makeup and adult makeup.
There are obvious differences between children's makeup and adult makeup in design, ingredients and use, mainly to ensure safety and applicability, including the following points:
1. Ingredients
Children's makeup
Use safe, mild, non-toxic ingredients, without irritating chemicals such as heavy metals, fragrances and preservatives.
The formula is mainly based on water-soluble or plant-based ingredients, easy to clean, and suitable for sensitive skin.
Does not contain substances that are prone to allergies or skin reactions, such as certain pigments or sunscreen ingredients.
Adult makeup
The ingredients are more complex and may contain chemicals with functions such as high-efficiency makeup holding and concealer.
Some ingredients may irritate children's skin, such as alcohol, preservatives, silicone oil, etc.
2. Uses
Children's makeup
Mainly used for fun and imitation, it belongs to the category of "toys", emphasizing entertainment rather than actual beauty effects.
Usually, the colors are light and elegant, and there is no requirement for long-lasting makeup.
Adult makeup
Used to beautify and modify the appearance, it is more functional, including concealer, contouring, sun protection, etc.
Richer colors, higher durability and professionalism.
3. Design
Children's makeup
The packaging design is cute and colorful, often incorporating cartoon patterns and animal images to attract children's interest.
The products are small and light, easy to hold and operate.
Adult makeup
Pay more attention to simple or high-end packaging design to attract mature consumers.
Pay more attention to accuracy and user experience, such as professional brushes and tools.
4. Safety standards
Children's makeup
Complies with toy safety standards (such as EN71 or ASTM F963) rather than cosmetics standards.
More stringent restrictions on the content of harmful substances to ensure that even if ingested or contacted with the eyes, there will be no serious consequences.
Adult makeup
Follow cosmetic regulations, focus on beauty and skin care needs, and have less protection against children's misuse.
The core of children's cosmetics is safety first, while satisfying children's curiosity and play needs; while adult cosmetics focus more on functionality and beauty effects. When choosing children's cosmetics, parents should give priority to brand reputation and ingredient safety, and avoid letting children come into contact with adult cosmetics.
