First of all, we have to eliminate two major misunderstandings when choosing facial tissue.
1. Toilet paper cannot replace facial tissue In real life, some people think that toilet paper is no different from facial tissue, and both can be used to wipe their mouths and faces. In fact, this kind of thinking is completely wrong. Most toilet paper on the market is made of pure wood pulp; however, the selection of facial tissue is more strict. It must be raw wood pulp, and paper towels must not be recycled. According to national standards: recycled materials and fluorescent agents are allowed to be added to toilet paper. As long as the standard is within the regulations and does not exceed the standard, it is safe to use white toilet paper containing fluorescent agents. However, facial tissues must not contain any fluorescent agents. Another important point is that toilet paper has a different tolerance for "bacteria" than facial tissue. According to the national health implementation standard: the bacterial content of toilet paper is ≤600 total colonies/g, while the total number of fungal colonies is not regulated; the bacterial content of paper towels is ≤200 total colonies/g, and the fungal content is ≤100 total colonies/g. It can be seen that the bacteria content of toilet paper is 3 times that of facial tissue, and the hygienic standards of facial tissue are more stringent. Therefore, toilet paper cannot be used instead of facial tissue.
2. The whiter and slipperier the tissue paper, be vigilant. Nowadays, when choosing facial tissues, many people prefer the white and smooth texture of the tissues as their purchase criteria. In fact, this judgment is not 100% correct. Facial tissue that is too bright may contain fluorescent brighteners; facial tissue that is too smooth may contain talcum powder; long-term use of such facial tissue may cause skin itching in mild cases, or cause various skin allergies in severe cases , If pregnant mothers use it, it may also cause fetal malformations. The state has clear regulations on the whiteness of facial tissue: the whiteness of tissue standard A is 85.0%-90.0%. Facial tissue should be without any additives, the color is natural ivory white, natural white, not too white to be dazzling, and the texture is relatively uniform. Therefore, everyone must pay attention when choosing facial tissues!
Which is more important, choose facial tissue depends on these 4 points:
01. Pay attention to the qualified facial tissues produced by regular manufacturers on the outer packaging. The implementation standard number, production date, shelf life and main raw materials must be indicated on the outer packaging. Specifically, under normal circumstances, the implementation standard number is GB20810-2006, and the shelf life is three years. Generally, effective information such as the product number, address, and telephone number of the manufacturer will be indicated on the outer packaging. In addition, the packaging seal should be neat and firm without damage.
02. Pay attention to the production of raw materials. Among the above 2 misunderstandings, let me introduce them in detail here: the raw material for the production of facial tissue is 100% log wood pulp. Currently on the market, the paper produced from raw wood pulp is better, it is from wood to pulp, directly to paper, the paper has high purity and is not mixed with other materials.
03. Pay attention to facial tissues with good hand feeling, which is delicate and soft, and does not shed powder or hair. The bad paper towels are hard and loose, easy to shed powder and hair, and even feel painful when rubbed on the skin.
04. Pay attention to the tissue paper with good toughness, which has longer fibers, strong toughness, strong expansion force, and elasticity, and is not easy to be torn off. You can soak the facial tissue, cover it on the cup, press the cup wall, and then put a one-yuan coin on the tissue. If you put more than a dozen coins in the facial tissue, it will be damaged, which means that the tissue has good toughness.
