New Anti Aging Cosmetic Contains Nanotechnology

There has been a controversy over an anti aging cosmetic sold by one of the biggest cosmetic companies in the Untied States. This company makes anti-wrinkle creams that contain nanotechnology which is the use of nano particles that have the ability to be absorbed into the skin deeper than other types of similar creams using normal sized particles.

The Food and Drug Administration says that not enough research was done on this anti aging cosmetic that is causing such a stir among those using it. With all the new technologies being used in the cosmetics field the FDA is thinking that there should be regulations there in the same way there are with medications. They say they are concerned about long-term effects of using something that goes too quickly into the skin cells. Could it enter the bloodstream as well and if so what will it do?  The FDA wants answers.

Some claim the concern is really jealousy at the advanced process invented by this company and so the larger opponents are working hard to offer a similar anti aging cosmetic equally capable of getting deep into the skin quickly. These other cosmetic companies are coming up with their own forms of nanotechnology but using different names to describe the same process. One of the things that they put into these creams is nothing more than Vitamin C.

The Cosmetic Toiletry and Perfumery Association came out with statements of their own reassuring all the people who use these products that any anti aging cosmetic has been thoroughly tested. They wanted the world to know that cosmetic users were just as valued as those who need prescriptions and that they would never issue a product that had not none through extensive testing. 

Either way as the baby boomers continue to age the call for a good anti aging cosmetic, or maybe a few of them, is growing louder. The average boomer is approaching fifty to sixty and much more conscious of their appearance as they age then their parent’s generation.
