Cosmetics are mixtures of certain ingredients, such as surfactants and oils, and some heavy metals, and must be effective, long-lasting, stable and safe for human use. Since most cosmetic products are applied topically, skin exposure is considered the most important route for cosmetic products. The dermal absorption of heavy metals is very low. The absorption of individual metals is affected by some factors and the physical and chemical properties of the mixtures.

Many cosmetic products contain heavy metals as ingredients or impurities. Recent research shows that these metals cause many health and skin problems. In advanced laboratories, heavy metals such as iron, chromium, zinc, lead and cadmium, including copper, are analyzed using flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer after appropriate digestion.
Copper is a naturally occurring metal in plants and animals as well as in the environment. Copper powder is metallic copper in powder form and is included in the formulation of eye makeup, face powders, lipsticks, hair dye sprays and hair coloring products in cosmetics and personal care products. It is generally used to give a brown color to cosmetics and personal care products.
Our organization, equipped with extensive technological equipment and a trained and experienced staff, applies the most modern methods in the tests and analyses we conduct, adhering to both national and international standards as well as current legal regulations . Among the numerous tests performed within this scope, copper (Cu) testing services are also provided within the framework of elemental analysis.
