Air quality and cosmetics
Although you probably don't think about it while getting ready, it unknowingly has a negative impact on the air quality in your home. This is because your favorite cosmetics contain VOCs, or "volatile organic compounds. These chemicals have a strong odor and evaporate easily at room temperature, making the air unhealthy to breathe.
Fragrances
Although some cosmetics give off a pleasant smell, it is not exactly healthy to breathe it in.
Chemicals
Chemicals are chemicals found in many of our everyday products; think cosmetics like perfume or deodorant, scented candles and cleaning products.
Headache
When the air in a room is not sufficiently refreshed, CO2 and water vapor from our breathing (as well as pollution sources) keep increasing. This lowers oxygen levels, causing headaches. In addition, many everyday products contain chemicals that contribute to this.
Airways
When pollutants are inhaled, they can irritate the airways, causing difficult breathing and/or irritation of the cavities and trachea.
