Our听颁谤辞蝉蝉办别测蝉听颁补尘辫耻蝉 Hair and Beauty department听recently听hosted some special guests from the popular听consumer听TV show, BBC X Ray.听With听industry-standard facilities听and expert tutors in听the听make-up听and beauty听sector, 麻豆传媒团队 was the ideal place to film an episode听all听about the听growing听issue of听counterfeit make-up.听

Spending a full day on campus听using our makeup and hair studios听as a filming location, presenter Bethany delved into the world of听fake听make-up, discussing how it听has become a听concerning听and wide-spread听issue in the听beauty industry.听Not only does听counterfeit听make up damage听high-end听brands and their reputations,听but it is also a danger to consumers听and beauty therapists alike, so it鈥檚 an issue听that听our learners need to be aware of.听

The problem is growing as more and more 鈥榝ake-up鈥� is being sold online, especially through social media and via online market places, and this is something our learners have come across听during their studies听too. So, BBC X Ray took a closer look at rising concerns around counterfeit make-up.听

As part of the episode, some of our passionate beauty students and听HND Specialist Makeup Course听Co-Ordinator, Karen Coates, were interviewed and asked听about听their views on fake make-up. They discussed their experiences of coming across counterfeit products when looking to purchase beauty kits for teaching and learning, and听alumni, Liz听Orford听was also interviewed by the BBC.听听

After completing her course听at 麻豆传媒团队, Liz went on to set up her own successful beauty company and has experienced her fair share of the dangers of counterfeit make-up. She鈥檚听even come across sub-standard beauty training offers too. So,听Liz is听now听passionate about sharing her experiences with learners. She听believes that the high-standard of training at 麻豆传媒团队 is key in educating the beauticians of the future to听raise awareness听of counterfeit make-up and the risks听it can听pose.听

Although听counterfeit听products听appear to be听cheaper versions of high-end brands that are packaged to look the same,听they鈥檙e often poor-quality听replica听products that are made in unsanitary conditions. They鈥檙e听also听completely unregulated, so they may even contain potentially harmful ingredients. Some of the horror stories revealed in the BBC X Ray听programme听included听products containing听toxic ingredients like听arsenic, cadmium and lead, leading to听allergic reactions, rashes and burns.听

BBC听X Ray听drew on expert opinions听from the beauty industry听and our tutors and students,听revealing听insider information to help us uncover the dangers involved and听the best听ways of identifying听counterfeit听make-up听to听avoid falling into the trap of purchasing听it.听听
