Question

1. Read the passage and answer the questions that follow: 1. Experts say that what customers buy in the name of herbal cosmetics is often the same synthetic cosmetic with a herb or two added, which works to lure customers. A product that say it is 100% natural may be misleading in the sense that it's difficult to stabilize a fully natural base and is always quite expensive, requiring advanced technology. The desired shelf life of a product is expected to be at least two years, but that of a purely herbal product would be restricted to about six months. Also, the products have to include synthetic base ingredients to balance the formula. 2. Herbal ingredients might also cause allergies as they may contain a large number of constituents which may be allergic to that user. Thus, the concept of using 'total extracts' may be harmful, because there are several other ingredients going into the product. Also, things like pH need to be considered before using it. 3. According to the law experts, customers suing someone is considered extreme. Given the legal system in India and the long- drawn litigation process, customers tend to pursue legal action against manufacturers/distributors in the event of any problem. However, with the dawn of consumer forums and more effective laws protecting the interest of the consumers, the trend is slowly moving towards this direction. 4. At times it is not just manipulative manufacturers and passive consumers but sometimes weak and absent rules regarding the process of manufacturing can also get fake production licenses. Also, one cannot make a generalisation that synthetics are safe while naturals are harmful. I would say that the difference is that if one is a known devil (synthetic) the other is unknown. Unlike the case of synthetic cosmetic. herbal cosmetics are still in a nascent stage. You don't have well- defined standards for the use of raw materials in the production of herbal cosmetics. 5. Finally, customers can also check out their cosmetics by using the 'Cosmetics ingredients dictionary, a database of 19,000 ingredients. It claims to help users check out what chemical compounds they use daily.
