ABSTRACT
The phrase "pharmacovigilance" refers to the tasks of collecting,
detecting, evaluating, monitoring, and preventing adverse drug
reactions. The term "vigilance" has recently been expanded to include
the
safety of herbal
and cosmetic
items. The word
"cosmetovigilance" was coined
to describe
industry-wide
surveillance to address the safety of cosmetic products. A cosmetic is
any preparation applied to the skin, eyes, lips, hair, or nails for the
purposes of cleansing, enhancing appearance, providing a pleasant
scent, or providing protection. Despite the fact that cosmetics are
mostly diffused compounds applied topically to wash, scent, or
improve appearance, the number of documented adverse reactions is
extremely low, because to underreporting. Cosmetovigilance allows
us to rule out or regulate potentially harmful substances, putting our
minds at ease about the items we buy. The goal of the study was to
determine the prevalence and characteristics of adverse cosmetic
events (ACEs) reported, through survey.
