Retinol Banned In Europe? Body Butter CRACK For Spiders And ANOTHER Celeb Skincare Line?! Ugly News

[@anitathompson326]

Who cares if people like clean beauty. It’s not bull shit. It’s not hurting anyone. I agree that a lot of chemical ingredients are safe but what’s the problem with going with more natural stuff and leaving most of the chemicals out. We could all do with less chemicals in our lives.

[@JamesWelsh]

But that’s the issue. Even the use of the word ‘chemical’ as if it’s a bad thing. Everything is a chemical. Clean beauty, with all due respect, is mostly bullshit. It relies on outdated and incorrect information that’s not based in science and does more harm than good by making people believe cosmetics they have easy and affordable access to are ‘dirty’ or filled with ‘toxic chemicals’ when in reality, natural ingreidnats are more likely to irritate your skin. Clean beauty pushes outdated and non-evidence backed claims like, chemicals enter our blood stream, chemical sunscreens are bad, parabens cause cancer. When in reality none of this is accurate. But because the media and these brands use these incorrect ideas to sell their products through fear, many people out there believe this is science fact. When it’s not. So I will have to disagree and say it’s hurting people and it is in fact a load of bull shit

[@dresden123456]

Water is a chemical. It's frankly a dangerous trend to demonise more complex scientific formulas while hyping up all things natural. Just because an ingredient exists in nature does not equal safe or better. But it does play into anti science propaganda we're witnessing nowadays. Clean beauty means nothing but adds negative connotations to the "chemical" products.

[@jodhamster]

Water = H2O…chemical. Everything is a chemical, so they need to be more clear in the definition of “chemical”. Know what you’re saying, though 💜

[@amandaflippin5368]

Just because something is found in nature, doesn't mean that it's safe. There are plenty of plants and naturally occurring elements that can make you sick, or even k!ll you.

[@anankeeknana8298]

It's the issue when it is a claim made in an unregulated field with no proven benefits for the health, environment or Idk fair trade, to boost up the sales. False marketing is illegal and this is a grey area that needs regulation. Otherwise is fine. Produce your own organic plant and eat it or apply anywhere you want if it's your thing.

The Sol de Janeiro thing was crazy. I saw it start on the the Sephora Subreddit, and people generally knew it was a joke. It took me five minutes of research to find the review and see that they had made an almost word for word identical review on another random item on Sephora in March 2023. They were obviously just trolling, maybe even trying to get viral by repeating the same outlandish review half a year later. Someone on the Ulta Subreddit said they threw out all their Sol de Janeiro items and were told they wasted all their products for no reason because the spider review was a joke.

When I used a certain fake tan I would get stung by a wasp or a bee, happened like 5 times I thought maybe it’s the tan until I had a think about it maybe it’s because I wear tan in the summer, I’m more likely to be showing more skin and I’m outside more so it’s more likely to encounter a bee, though I wonder if it’s freshly applied moisture maybe the spiders just gets stuck and bites because it can’t get away 🙈 I got a huge wasp stuck in my arm I guess my freshly applied tan was sticky!

[@michelle5952]

random fact about fragrance and bees: isoamyl acetate is the compound bees use to provoke each other to sting in presence of a threat. It’s also a primary part of banana scented products (can be used in other fruit scents as well)! this can mean two things: one, bees have a higher chance of getting mad at you if you are using a banana scented or based product and two, an angry beehive will sometimes smell like bananas. 😛

I'm honestly a bit disappointed it doesn't attract wolf spiders. I love little wolfies. They're adorable. I remember last summer seeing a small on on the road, right at the edge of the grass, just chilling in the moon light. I was so excited I stopped to look at it for a couple min (I really wanted to pet it but I know better than to pet wild animals. 😆) I sometimes get them on my front porch (as well as many other spiders. The stray cats have been keeping most of them away this yr but many spiders nest underneath amd around it and there have been nights my front porch will be covered in a couple thousand spiders of various species.)

[@dragoncatoverload]

I actually really like retinol Bakuchiol combo. Bakuchiol is a lot more gentle and makes up for the lower percentage of retinol in the product. I also find I can use it way more frequently than a pure retinol product.

[@qfemale]

I don't think we should blame spiders for not knowing how kryptonite works 🤣

[@AKbaby89]

This reminds me of something that happened over the summer. My favorite brand, Kikiz Cosmeticz, kept having one person leave reviews on her products, saying the lip gloss she got had poop in it and rating it 1 star. She left several of these poop reviews on every product Kikiz Cosmeticz currently had on their website. So she had to change the way her review system works. Someone needs to teach their kids leaving fake reviews is messed up😂

[@apollolewis]

I understand why the EU is limiting retinal for the concerns over overuse, but I don’t think they should legislate just because someone might be over using something. It’s being very overly cautious. And I am far too paranoid to trust the certification for what is considered green. It’s probably just my trust issues talking though. I guess we’ll see how well it works when it’s fully implemented.

[@hannajung7512]

the thing is: the regulation serves to protect people that do not know better. basically: cosmetics you can get over the counter should be useable by everybody without them having to know exactly how and how often to use it. You can get higher percentages either by buying cosmetic ingredients to make your own cosmetics, or by getting a prescription by a dermatologist, which may not be covered by the health care system, but you still can get it this way. Since it is a so callled "privately paid" prescription you can get it even via those tele prescription services. So it mostly gets down to anybody wanting a higher percentage needing to show they talked to somebody who told them how to properly use it for their skin.

[@pantherhealing]

I’m not sure if I read it wrong, but I saw something about retinol being linked to loss in bone density and osteoporosis when used in high pourcentage for a long period of time.. 😅

[@hannajung7512]

​@@pantherhealingthe thing is: the EU has another approach to these things. basically you have to demonstrate your product/ingredient is safe to be allowed to sell it. Not the EU having to show it is not safe. The percentages allowed are the amount that producers and scuentific studies demonstrated that they are safe to use even for people with no education. You can get higher percentages as prescription or with certain licenses still.

[@KatK61227]

I disagree. Retinol IS effectively being banned because most people need to use a percentage over 0.3 to get sufficient results. I find it very misleading when people claim that it's not being banned. Yes, there are loop holes like switching to Tretinoin or Retinal, but effective high potency Retinol is banned.

[@binarytrash]

Well considering up until 2020 we could run to any pharmacy and get 0.05 or 0.1% tretinoin but now I got to a dermatologist in hopes that I’d be able to get a prescription tube of the same stuff I was able to get without prescription half a year ago (still in 2020) only to be told it’s not available at all anymore … like it’s not made or imported in the country anymore. I’m sure they definitely want to completely wipe any remaining functional forms of vit A entirely. Nobody can convince me otherwise.

[@Nicole-yw4vq]

I will just buy my products from another not EU country like the retinol serum from trinity London (english bramd). Just like I buy Korean products from Asian online markets.

[@erik7647]

​@@binarytrash there is not real benefit to wiping it off the market entirely. The reason it's not being imported is because it isn't profitable enough to do so for the small amount of people just accessing through prescription and with it being a recent change there probably also isn't as many brands approved to sell it as a medicine marketing the ingredient.

Even in the US Retinols/ Vitamin A are regulated but in different categories based on the percentages, the higher the percentage the more likely you need to get a prescription from your doctor. Alpha Arbutin isn't regulated the precursor to hydroquinone which is. It interesting that they are regulating Kojic acid. As for Green Washing it started in Cleaning products and then it started to move into beauty and Skin care here sectors. I guess you could say hybrid and electric car along with MPG cars were marketed as "Greener" options but it's more about regulation and incentives for those types cars here in the US.

When you were talking about the EU restrictions you implied it would happen in the UK too (or I thought that's what you were implying by using the word "we") but we're not in the EU - surely their legislation no longer applies here?

At 46 seconds I say this doesn’t include the uk ☺️

The most hilarious part? Kryptonite is not and attractant in the DC comic world unless you're Luther who only likes it because it harms Superman. The phrase "is the kryptonite of" is really "is the one weakness (not as in "weak for" but as in "weak in defense against"). Heck leave Supes around enough Kryptonite for long enough and it will kill him. Not a great use by that initial poster of the complaint about the "spider attracting" cream.
