Functional cosmetics for human body cleaning that help relieve acne-prone skin are most often used as the main ingredient 'salicylic acid', which helps relieve acne-prone skin through exfoliation and sebum removal. However, it does not cure acne symptoms themselves, so consumers need to be careful.
In addition, after carefully checking the information written and displayed on cosmetics, such as how to use containers or packaging, precautions when using them, and the expiration date, you should select an appropriate product according to the individual's skin condition and use it correctly.
In particular, it should not be used on mucosal areas such as the inside of the eyelid and the nose, or damaged skin such as wounds and eczema, and long-term use of large amounts may cause side effects such as red spots, swelling, and itching. If it enters the eye during use, it should be immediately washed with water, and when side effects occur, it is necessary to seek medical treatment or counseling from a specialist.
On the other hand, if there is empirical data prepared according to objective and scientific procedures and methods in accordance with the 「Test Method Guidelines for the Demonstration of Cosmetic Labeling Advertisement」, general cosmetics can also be marked and advertised at the level of"Suitable for acne-prone skin use". However, since cosmetics are not pharmaceuticals, there are cases of false or exaggerated advertisements such as being effective or effective in treating or alleviating acne, so you should not purchase the product, and if you need treatment, you should receive proper treatment through a doctor's consultation.
In addition, functional cosmetics for human body cleaning that help relieve acne-prone skin should be reviewed (reported) by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. Therefore, consumers must check the letter 'functional cosmetics' in the product packaging, design, and efficacy/effectiveness, or check and purchase functional cosmetics on the website of the Drug Safety Country.
