Cosmetic producer shares skincare buying tips

CHOOSING appropriate skincare products is not an easy task. Even if you are very clear about your skin type, you may not understand the tiny, complicated formulation labels printed on cosmetic packages. Shenzhen-based French cosmetic producer Audrey Tournier has an easy tip for customers: “If you don’t understand the cosmetic ingredient labels, don’t buy.”

“If a skincare product’s ingredients are common words, such as coconut oil and rose water, this product uses natural ingredients. If the formulation looks too ‘scientific’ or has many rarely seen words, the product might use synthetic chemicals, which could harm your skin,” said Tournier, founder of Slow Living Ltd., a Hong Kong-registered company producing and selling handmade organic skincare.

Tournier believes that understanding cosmetic labels is as important as reading nutrition labels on food products. “Reading cosmetic labels also helps you understand whether a product is worth spending money on.”

Tournier studied Chinese language and literature at a university in France and worked for eight years in shipping in Shanghai. As she found yoga and meditation could relieve her stress from work, she quit her job to pursue a slower paced lifestyle. She then studied organic skincare formulation in Britain and founded Slow Living in 2014.

She now only sells her products on weidian.com or via WeChat, while occasionally organizing workshops in Guangdong to teach people how to make organic skincare and aromatherapy products and how to read cosmetic labels.
