Nowadays, many children like makeup, such as applying makeup products such as mother’s lipstick and blush, so are children suitable for makeup? In this regard, Wu Ying, director of the Cosmetics Supervision and Management Division of the Chongqing Municipal Food and Drug Administration, said that for safety and health reasons, it is not recommended for children to use makeup. It is best to apply it on the inside of the forearm for a skin test before use. If you have no allergies, you can use it. After use, thoroughly wash and remove makeup. The person in charge specially reminded that the so-called children’s makeup that is popular on the Internet is closer to toys, and it is not recommended for children to use it.
