At that time, the seaweed granular mask was all the time, and Taobao's sales were amazing. Many merchants earned tens of millions by selling this eight -haired products ~ In fact, the large -selling seaweed granules have nothing to do with seaweed. Let me see who is still in this shocking scam!

In this article, we will reveal the entire process of finding the truth. If you don't want to see the detailed analysis steps and the seaweed photos that are not so (beautiful) (taste), you can directly pull to the conclusion later.

Over the years, from the student dormitory to the beauty courtyard line, you can see the active figure of seaweed granules. The young lady who loves beauty may have used or saw this stuff, grab a handful of seaweed particles in the bowl, soak in water for a while, and then stir it a few times, the seaweed particles will become a sticky film, which can be spread on the skin.

The whole process is real and interesting, easy to use and fun. Many bloggers shared on Douyin, station B, and Weibo. The seaweed mask also took short videos of express trains. It becomes milk, vitamin E, honey, pearl powder, etc., and merchants will deliver and set molds for the facial mask.

This sticky glue is very smooth and comfortable. It is easy to think of the words such as "closed" and "moisturizing", and the seaweed also gives people a pure natural sense of security. After use, the skin is indeed hydrating and moist. No wonder it is popular in the beauty circle ~

Slowly, you see the dosage of this product. It is very unique. It is neither water, milk, cream, essence, nor powder, mud, wax, spray, gel Granules.

What is even more surprising is that someone forgot after soaking the mask. After looking at it in two days, it can grow buds like leeks.

Shouldn't that germinate, shouldn't it be something that can be done? So these seaweed masks are also called seeds of seaweed.

But does the seaweed really have seeds? If it is a seed, who is it? With these problems, our cracking journey began.

Step first check the ingredient table

I bought a few models on the Internet. I made a career disease and checked the filing information.

The real shooting component table of "seaweed mask"

After the inquiry, there is no problem. The information on the product packaging is consistent with the public information of the drug supervision bureau website. I am curious, obviously the seeds of them. How can I just reflect various extracts in the ingredient table? Is it eliminated by cutting corners and cutting the ingredients directly.

When buying "seaweed mask", online data introduction will mention some keywords: seaweed seeds, Thai small granules seaweed seeds, plant masks, germinated masks, and so on. How can seaweed seeds be extract? Is this not contradictory? The extract can also pour some water to germinate. This is afraid of the 25th century plant stem cell technology!

The first conclusion: This should not be the XX extract in the ingredient table, which can germinate the seeds. They should be seeds.

Step 2

Are these seeds of seaweed?

In the "Catalog of Cosmetics and Raw Materials" released by the Drug Administration, you can query the following 4 types related to seaweed:

Since there is a specific seaweed name in the ingredient table, let's see the vines and see what these seaweed looks like. ① Cladosiphon Okamuranus

③ Lassonia Nigrescents

④ Sargassum FusiformE

Middle school biological classes should also be learned. Seaweed is a low -class nuclear plant with a simple structure. It does not have the differentiation of real roots, stems, or leaves.

The second step conclusion: This cannot be the seed of seaweed!

third step

Since the seaweed has no seeds,

Whose seed is this?

The Internet has memories. Earlier, some netizens have noticed that after applying this "seaweed granular mask", it is too late to throw the trash can sprout! The germination rate is quite high. Looking at it is quite festive ~ As the saying goes, from the fruit of the fruit, we grow up from the germination of what you start with, and we decompose. The problem can be broken! Looking at the small buds growing out after germination of the "seaweed granules", it is obviously Gemini plant. It is a plant of the land. It has nothing to do with the enchanting seaweed semi -cash.

Some netizens said that it is very similar to the Tianxian (莨菪, the family of Egishid was a plant). However, this seed is toxic, and in the cosmetics disable list, the probability is not high.

Some netizens simply planted them in the flower pots on the balcony, and found that it grew the same as the ice powder seeds making jelly after growing.

Douban netizens burst out the sea algae mask is ice powder seeds ｜ https: //www.douban.com/group/topic/11232738/ Museum magazine also said:

I checked the information of the ice powder seeds: the scientific name of the ice powder seeds, the fake acid pulp of the eggplant, the fake acid berdite is a plant, and the seeds have a layer of fog -like toxic, colorless, odorless, edible glue. Summer desserts of anti -inflammatory and diuretic, heat and thirst, which are the ice powder we often eat.

However, most businesses on a certain treasure vowed that their products were not ice powder, nor seaweed, but also small seaweed particles. They also made a lot of distinction between seaweed.

Step 3: There are at least three suspects -ice powder seeds, seaweed, and small seaweed.

Step 4 Analysis one by one

In fact, in the cosmetics industry, especially in the raw material side and production end, "seaweed particles have nothing to do with seaweed" have long been an open secret. It's just what its true identity is. It seems that no one can give me the answer. After inquiry for a long time, I only learned that this is a kind of unknown weed seeds imported from Vietnam and Thailand.

In this case, then start a research. I bought fake acids, seaweed, and small seaweed particles back to test. I found that the appearance of the three is similar, but there are still no difference in observation.

Dangdang, a case of case, microscope! Three particles show the original shape under the microscope: ① false acid pulp -ice powder seeds

② "seaweed"

③ "Little Sea"

Under a microscope, it can be clearly seen that pseudo -acid pulp is really different from large seaweed and small seaweed. However, although the seaweed and the small seaweed are significantly different in the size of the particles, the shape is quite similar. How to determine which one?

With the doubts in my heart, I sent the micro -picture to a friend who studied botany, and the response was: Pseudic acid pulp (nicandra physalodes (Linn.) Gartn.) And seaweed and small seaweed are the dry and mature seeds of the waterfront of the plants of the bed.

On the website of Zhejiang Chinese Medicine Digital Specification Museum, the pictures of the retrieval of Shui Yanyi are consistent with the seaweed I took in the experiment.

Check more information:

The seeds of Shuiyi Yi, also known as Nandian Fairy, are mainly produced in Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and other places. It is also known as imported Tianxian. In addition, according to the description of the search literature, the "seaweed granules" of different sizes of the same size can be the seeds of water. It is mainly imported by imports. The difference is caused by different variants of this plant, as well as the impact of origin, climate and other factors. Essence

Waterfish

Interested friends can retrieve according to the following keywords: Shui Shi Yi, Hygrophila Megalantha, Hygrophilasalicifolia (Vahl) Nees, HạT đình Lịch (Vietnamese).

Step 5 The truth is only one!

Combing the above clues, we can reveal the mystery for everyone.

The "seaweed granular mask" has nothing to do with seaweed. It is basically the seeds of water -coated clothes on the market, with large particles and small particles. The seaweed is too innocent, and the streets are full of "seaweed seeds", but the seaweed does not know that they can grow seeds.

The horizontal comparison of 3 granules

"Little seaweed" is indeed high (actually not glue, but polysaccharide), good viscosity, and good membrane. This is caused by various factors.

Back to the product itself, there is no wife in the wife's cake, and there is no seaweed in the "seaweed mask".

These "seaweed masks" are all illegal and unsatisfactory. This is not only a problem of product names. The composition table of these products is "** seaweed extract".在 蓑 Seed) is not in the list of cosmetics accurate ingredients, and even extracts are not considered.

Ice powder seeds may have been the raw material of "seaweed granular mask", which confirmed this private friend who followed the upstream supply chain. Moreover, when I observed the "big particle seaweed", I accidentally found that a lot of ice powder seeds were mixed with it. I do n’t know if this was intended to be mixed with the traitors, or was mixed together during the planting process of the two. After all, this year's "seaweed granules" are said to have risen very much, and the appearance of the "big granules" is closer to ice powder seeds, and it is not seen normally after doping.

"Big granular seaweed" was found to be doped with pseudo -acid pulp (ice powder seeds)

The size of "small granules" is much smaller than ice powder seeds, but nothing is mixed. In addition, "size granular seaweed" can be found in a small amount of sediment residues.

The century was concluded.

Finally, there are two more things to say:

(1) Regardless of whether the "seaweed particles" are the illegitimate children of seaweed or whether the seaweed mask is legal or legal, since this thing (water tadpole seeds) has been circulating in the folk for more than ten years, before it was put on the hat of "seaweed granules", it was put on the hat of the "seaweed granules". It also has a history of skin care in Southeast Asia for many years. If you feel easy to use, you can continue to use it after using your skin. I have nothing else. I just explain to everyone to explain that the "seaweed granular mask" is neither a seaweed seed nor a seaweed extract. There is no loss to the seaweed. (2) According to the predecessors in the industry, some people were selling this product at the beginning of this century. Some ancient forums were once popular. The earliest context of the "seaweed mask" was unknown. Those who can come up with this name are also a good player in the market! I don't know if the relevant department noticed this situation? A plant seeds that are not in the cosmetics accurate raw material directory have been registered for registration and registered by cosmetics companies to use the "** seaweed extract" for a long time. Among them, there are many large domestic brands. There is no questioning voice inside and outside the industry. This melon is your product, carefully. references
