Siamo sommersi da ogni tipo di informazione sui cosmetici. La televisione ci bombarda di pubblicità, le riviste reclamizzano le ultime novità in fatto di mascara e di miracolosi shampoo riparatori e, in particolar modo su internet, ci imbattiamo di continuo in articoli che ci mettono in allarme su prodotti e ingredienti che ci possono causare disturbi e malattie.
