Nothing is more involved than trying to explain the science of nanotechnology, with maybe the irregularity of rocket science or measure physics. So, why would any enterprise or maker who uses this science in there products, tell consumers about it? The short talk is they wouldn't. In fact, I am only aware of one enterprise that is forth arrival in their use of nanotech; and that enterprise is Entity Beauty. We as consumers like simple, and nanotech is far from simple. So, let me share some, of what I have learned.
Nanotechnology - The Science That is Changing the World - Should it Be Used in beauty Products?
I found that in writing this article that there are many distinct definitions of nanotechnology. Here is one definition which I thought was most revelant to the charm industry, and the context of this article. Nanotechnology, shortened to "nanotech", is the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Ordinarily nanotechnology deals with structures of the size 100 nanometers or smaller in at least one dimension, and involves developing materials or devices within that size. So now, I will explain that in laymen's terms; super small, itsy bitsy. Photograph one human skin cell. Now, imagine something about a 1/50th smaller than a human skin cell. That is the scale at which nanotechnology works. This is why some hair manufacturers incorporating this science. Due to nanotech's capability to allow shampoo and conditioning ingredients to penetrate the hair follicle, widespread texture, and hair capability improve, and you as a buyer recieve maximum results, and gorgeous hair.
I was never the kid in school who held his hand up first when it came to answering the teachers questions in science, or chemistry class. Not that I was a dunce or anything, I just never wanted to look like a fool in front of the class for perhaps giving the wrong answer. It was only later in life that I learned this easy truth. Ignorance never means your stupid; only that you don't know, or understand something. The only qoute I see with ignorance, is some habitancy select to remain that way. If, there is one thing that most of us don't understand, it is how important nanotechnology is in the world today, or more importantly how it is changing it. It is predicted that every salon, spa, and nail professional and their clients, will finally be exposed to nanotech in one form or another within the next few years. Which stands to reason, as nanotechnology is probably one of the most notable advancements in science in the past fifty years. I predict nanotech applications will be used for generations to come, and if we ever have any occasion at seeing a cure for cancer, or the base cold, nanotechnology will more than likely have something to do with it. But, is it literally needed in skincare, and more importantly the charm business as a whole? I say, yes, and the reckon is this.
As consumers are enduringly seeing for bigger, better, new and improved products. How often do you go out seeing for last generation products, when there is something newer? I would hazard a guess, never. Manufacturers, comprise statements like new and improved, on the labels of their products, because they know you will be more drawn to purchase them. What I literally want to know, and you should be asking, is what did they improve? Did they enhance the bottle, the fonts, or how well the product well the product will literally perform. The only way any lotion, or cream, shampoo or conditioner is going to give you any long term benefits, is by utilizing science that gets to the root of the problem. Did you know most ingredients in lotions, and creams only coat the exterior layer of the skin? Nanotech allows ingredients to penetrate the skin, and deliver the ingredients which you are paying good money for, where they need to be; below the exterior layer of the skin.
When it comes to new science, it is sometimes best to err on the side of caution. However, the fact is this. Most of us unknowingly have already used one product, or another which utilizes the advantages nanoscience and don't realize it. base products in which you may have had some caress with nanotech include, waterproofing agents, clothing, and furniture stain guarding products, run-flat tires, gravidity tests, televisions and some Mp3 players. Ever heard of a miniature thing called the ipod nano?
I, like most of you reading this probably don't care what, or how any given product works as long as it does what it promises as stated on the label. Heck! As long as my car starts in the morning, I could care less about what makes the alternator function. Please, don't get me started on Pvr's, or that I never even learned how to program the clock on the old Dvd player. Me, and technology don't mix. I openly admit it. So, when someone starts talking science, it typically goes in one ear, and out the other. I myself find nanotechnology to be boring, but I believe it deserves our attentiveness as consumers.
So, if you are currently using a skin cream which uses nanotech; kudo's to you! I'll assume two things about you. First, you are paying straight through the nose for it, as new science is seldomly inexpensive. Which by the way, is more than likely why more manufacturers don't use nanotech. Anyone that cuts in to profits is typically viewed as bad business. And secondly, that you are a informed buyer and take your skin care seriously. I myself, have personally witnessed the benefits of nanotechnology first hand. I have seen scars that magically disappear, and hands that look, and feel younger. If there is a such thing as a magic bullet, then, I think nanotech is it. Don't let your fears, or easy ignorance keep you from trying something that can make you look beautiful. The truth is, soon you may not have a choice at all. The medical, pharmaceutical, hair, cosmetic, and spa business have already embraced the benefits of nanotechnology. Now is a important for you to stay informed as a consumer, and what is happening in the charm world and how, how it can benefit you.
In parting, l would like to share this. As a child my mom always told me to strive to learn one new thing a day, and that is how you will grow to become a well rounded human being. So my guidance is this. If you learn one new thing today, let it be more about nanotechnology, and how it is effecting the products you use to stay beautiful.
