Abstract With the rapid development of the national economy and the vigorous development of China’s cosmetics market, cosmetics have changed from a luxury product of skin care to a necessity, and its safety has increasingly become a concern of consumers. Hormones, preservatives, sunscreens and heavy metals in cosmetics are prohibited and restricted substances. The inspection of these prohibited and restricted substances is of great practical significance for enterprises to strictly control the product quality of cosmetics, ensure the safety of cosmetics and protect the health of the people. The incidents of illegal addition of banned substances in cosmetics emerge one after another, causing serious damage to the health of consumers and adverse effects on the domestic market. In order to provide technical support for relevant food and drug regulatory departments to find illegal additives in time and provide reference basis for Cosmetics testing, the author investigated and analyzed the possible prohibited components in cosmetics through collecting and inquiring relevant data of cosmetics and product investigation.
