First of all, Mao Geping's official response: the source of the sample cannot be verified.
Some media reported that the content of heavy metal chromium in Mao Geping Qingrun Traceless Powder Paste was high, which was 1.32mg/kg. Mao Geping Qingrun Traceless Powder Paste was listed as one of the top ten products not recommended in 2026, with 5438+0. However, Mao Geping said that all its products must pass many tests, such as hygiene and safety tests, toxicology tests and repeated skin irritation tests. And it will not be put on the market until it reaches all the relevant standards in the National Technical Specification for Cosmetic Safety, and it will not have any impact on health. Mao Geping Company has doubts about the objectivity, authenticity and scientificity of the report, and claims to keep misleading information in the report and pursue legal responsibility. In addition, Mao Geping issued a statement in the official Weibo, saying that the test mentioned in this report failed to pass the company's sampling inspection, and the specific sample source could not be verified.
Second, the harm of excessive chromium content to human body
Excessive chromium content is harmful to the skin first, because chromium compounds can stimulate and sensitize the skin. Long-term use of skin care products with excessive chromium will lead to red envelopes and edema, which will lead to skin ulceration and even cancer in severe cases. Excessive chromium content will also cause damage to the digestive system. Long-term exposure to chromate is prone to stomach pain, gastritis, and even gastrointestinal ulcers. In severe cases, it will be accompanied by systemic pain and fatigue. After a long time, the patient's sense of taste and smell will gradually decline or even disappear. In fact, too high chromium content is also very harmful to human respiratory system, which is likely to cause diseases such as perforation of nasal septum, nasal mucosal ulcer and pneumonia.
