Löysin tällaisen sivun surffailessani lisätietoja Hydantoin DMDM:stä:
http://personal.inet.fi/business/empowe ... aineet.htm
Kopioin tänne yleisimmin hiustuotteissa käytettävät aineet:
Alpha Hydroxy Acids: Käytetään yleisesti ns. ryppyvoiteissa. Niiden on todettu ohentavan ihoa. Tutkimuksen alla ovat AHA:ta sisältävien tuotteiden herkkyys auringolle ja syövän yhteys.
Ammonium Hydroxide Compounds: Ammonakki koostumukset ovat hyvin yleisesti käytetty kosmetiikassa. Ne ovat hyvin myrkyllisiä ja pitkäaikaisessa käytössä ne saattavat aiheuttaa vakavia hengitysoireita.
Benzzophenone, Benzene, Benzylphenyl, Kenone: Käytetään hyvin yleisesti aurinkovoiteissa, shampoissa, puhdistustuotteissa ja parfyymeissa. Ärsyttää silmiä, ihoa ja hengitystä. Vaarallinen hengitettynä ja ihoon imeytettynä.
Diethanolammine (DEA): Käytetään kosmetiikassa tasapainottamaan PH-arvoa. Käytetään myös hyvin rasvaisissa
sekoituksissa. Pitkäaikainen käyttö tekee siitä hyvin toksisen. Aiheuttaa ärsytystä iholle, silmille ja saattaa olla yhteyttä syövän kehittymiseen.
DMDM Hydantoin: Käytetään monissa kosmeettisissa tuotteissa ja pidetään hyvin vaarallisena. Epäillään olevan syöpää aiheuttavan.
EDTA: Ethylenedinitrillo - Edetuc Arid:
Kemiallinen aines, jota käytetään pehmentämään vettä. On hyvin myrkyllinen ja saattaa aiheuttaa allergisia reaktioita. Maailman terveysjärjestä luokittelee tämän aineen teratogeeniseksi (epämuodostumia aiheuttava).
Imidazolidinyt Urea & Diazolidinyl Urea: Nämä ovat Parabeenien jälkeen yleisimpiä käytettyjä säilöntäaineita kosmetiikassa. Amerikan Dermatologian yliopiston mukaan ne aiheuttavat ihottumaa. N ämä kemikaalit ovat toksisia.
Isopropyl Alcohol - Propyl Alcohol - Propanol:
Petrokemian tuottamia kemiallisia aineita. Käytetään kasvovoiteissa. Häiritsevät hermostoa. Aiheuttavat silmien ärsytystä. Hengittämällä näitä aineita aiheuttavat pahoinvointi päänsärkyä, ja jopa tajuttomuutta. Samoin herkistävät ihoa, maksaa, munuaisia, sydäntä ja hermostoa. Hyvin myrkyllisiä. Saattaa olla epämuodostumia (teratogeeninen) aiheuttava.
Mineral oil: Mineraali öljy. Tätä ainetta käytetään kosteuttavissa voiteissa kasvoille, huulille, silmille, käsille ja vartalolle. Myös värivoiteissa ja hiusten hoitotuotteissa käytetään hyvin yleisesti. Mineraali öljy peittää ihon hyvin ohuella kalvolla. Iho ei voi hengittää kunnolla eikä päästää läpi haitallisia aiheita ulos kehosta. Iho ei voi kosteuttaa itseään eikä tuottaa uusia terveitä soluja. Hyvin yleiset ihoreaktiot ovat mustapäät, näppylät, ihon kuivuminen, herkistyminen auringon valolle (maksaläiskät) kuten myös ihon ennenaikainen vanheneminen. Aiheuttaa myös sydän- ja allergisia häiriöitä, immuunihäiriöitä ja masennusta. Myös maksa ja munuaisongelmia sekä hengityshäiriöitä.
Methyl - Propyl, Butyl Parabn - Ethyl Paraben:
Parabeenit. Käytetään kosmetiikassa säilöntäaineena ja pidentämään tuotteen ikää. On hyvin yleinen, vaikka pidetään hyvin toksisena. Näistä ainesosista tulee paljon ilmoituksia allergioista ja ihon sairauksista. Brunelin yliopisto on todistanut, että iho voi imeä näitä ainesosia. Pidetään naishormonina. Heikentää sperman laatua, aiheuttaa kivessyöpää ja häiriöitä suvun lisääntymisessä miehillä. Myös naisilla aiheuttaa rintasyöpää.
PropyleneGlycol: On kemikaali, joka kosteuttaa. On halpa ja helppo tuottaa. Aiheuttaa allergisia ja toksisia reaktioita iholle, koska se "varastaa" kostetutta ihon syvimmistä kerroksista kosteuttaakseen ihon pintakerrosta. Tätä kemikaalia käytettään pakkasnesteissä autoille ja autojen jarrunesteissä. Sen raportoidaan aiheuttavan maksa- ja munuaishäiriötä.
PUP/VA Copolymer PUP/VA: Petrokemian tuote, jota käytetään hiuslakoissa ja geeleissä ja muissa kosmeettisissa tuotteissa. Pidetään toksisena, koska ainetta on jäljitetty ihmisillä, joilla on keuhko-ongelmia.
Quaternium - Poly -Quaternium: On ammoniakki tuote, jota käytetään kosmetiikassa säilöntäaineena. Aiheuttaa silmien ärsytystä, hiusten lähtöä, ihon hilseilyä ja vakavia allergisia reaktioita. On toksinen.
Sodium C 14 - 16 Olefin Sulfonate: Käytetään shampoissa ja muussa kosmetiikassa kosteuttajana. Ovat petrokemian tuotteita ja hyvin toksisia.
Stearalkonium Chloride: Kemikaali, jota käytetään hiustenhoitoaineissa ja kasvovoiteissa. On alun perin kehitetty vaateteollisuudelle. On hyvin halpaa verrattuna kasviuuteperäisiin ainesosiin, jotka todella hoitavat hiuksia ja ihoa. On toksinen.
Sodium Hydroxide: Käytetään puutereissa, saippuoissa, kiinnittävissä hiusten hoitotuotteissa, partavaahdoissa, kosteusvoiteissa jne. Imee nopeasti vettä ja käytetään puhdistamaan viemäreitä. Amerikassa aine on kielletty, jos viemärinpuhdistajassa kyseistä ainetta on enemmän kuin 10 %. Aiheuttaa ihottumaa ja nieltäessä oksennusta , voimattomuutta ja äkillistä heikentymistä. Hengitettynä aiheuttaa vakavia keuhkovaurioita.
Sodium Lauryl Sulphate: Voi olla synteettisesti valmistettua (petrokemian tuote) tai kasvipohjainen (kookospähkinästä) riippuen valmistavan yhtiön filosofiasta. Käytetään shampoissa ja muissa kosmeettisissa tuotteissa. Aiheuttaa silmä-ärsytystä, hilsettä ja allergisia reaktioita.
Triethanolamine (TEA): Käytetään kosmetiikassa PH-tasapainottajana ja voiteiden pohjana. Tämä ainesosa aiheuttaa allergisia reaktioita, silmäongelmia, hiusten ja kasvojen kuivumista. Pitkä aikaisessa käytössä toksinen.
P.S. En sitten tiedä, kuinka vakavasti pitäisi yllämainittuja varoituksia ottaa. Luultavasti näitä ainesosia pitäisi käyttää valtavia määriä, ennen kuin vaarallisimmat ennusteet alkavat käymään toteen. Omista kokemuksista voin sanoa, että Hydantoin DMDM on saanut päänahkani kutisemaan muutamiksi kuukausiksi aivan järkyttävästi ja lisäksi olen sen jälkeen ollut herkkä silikoneille.

Kasviuutteet ja -öljyt INCI:ssa (luettelo)
Kosmetiikassa käytetään paljon kasviuutteita ja -öljyjä. Niitä ei kuitenkaan kovin kattavasti löydä INCI-listoilta, joten päätin tehdä omin päin yksinomaan näistä koostuvan listan. Aineet ovat listassa sellaisina kuin ne INCI:ssa esiintyvät. Pääosin käytetään latinankielisiä nimiä, mutta tästä on myös poikkeuksia. Mukana on myös muutamia ei-kasvikuntaan kuuluvia aineita, kuten hunaja. Virheitä saattaa löytyä, huomautathan niistä!
Toivottavasti tästä on hyötyä ja apua monelle!

Voisikohan tänne FAQ-osioon koota jonkun yleispätevän ohjeistuksen incien lukemiseen. Vaikka ihan muutaman kohdan listan että mitä hyvässä muotoilutuotteen incissä on ja mitä huonossa muotoilutuotteen incissä on tjmsp.
Noita ainesosien selityksiä on kyllä varsinkin englanniksi saatavissa, mutta sellainen hieman lyhennelty incien lukemisohje olisi mielestäni silti kätevä.

^ Hyvä idea. Maallikotkin tajuais.. Mut tossa voi tulla hankalaks se, et eri ihmiset haluaa hiuksilleen eri vaikutuksia. Toiset ihmiset haluaa karheille hiuksilleen silikoneja, toiset missään nimessä ei. Sit jotkut tykkää öljyistä, jotkut lasimaisten hiusten omistajat taas ei välttis niitä arvosta..
Vuosikausien hiusten hennauksien ja kasvatuksen jälkeen takaisin omaa vaaleaa sävyä kasvattamassa...

^Hiustenhoitopuolella (vai oliko hämpässä) on sellainen ketju kuin INCI-suosikit ja -inhokit. Sieltä nyt ainakin löytyy aineita, joita juurekset incissä suosivat ja päin vastoin karttavat. Osa löytyy myös perusteluineen, joten siitä voipi saada itselleenkin vinkkiä, vaikkei ihan kaikki nimet olisikaan hallussa!
EDIT: Ketju on pudonnut hoito-aiheen sivulle 6 ja löytyy siis täältä
