Halal Cosmetiques

As a ladies, it's our fate to make friends with cosmetiques. Maybe not a complete cosmetiques like this, but at least facial wash, moisturizer, loose powder, and lipbalm are must-have-cosmetiques-item for ladies *curhat.. :P 

No, it's not only about style. Each of the items I mentioned before has its function for our skin's health. You can ask Mr. Google to find it..  :)

On the other hand, as a moslems, we have to make sure that halal is our priority.
Now, as being a ladies and moslems, the next question is, "Are our cosmetiques halal?"

Lucky for us in Indonesia, there are some brands that already have halal certificate. Here they are:

1. Wardah
2. Ristra (news about it)
3. La Tulipe (news about it)
4. Sari Ayu (news about it)
5. Caring Colour (news about it)
7. Inez

If you use overseas brands, you could take a look at this page also. Hopefully anything written there could be accounted.  :)

What about the other brands?

I think it doesn't mean that the not-having-halal-certificate-brands-yet are not halal, but it's safer if we use the already-having-halal-certificate-brands.

Or, you could take a look at the ingredients. There are some ingredients that are categorized as musbhooh because usually they origins from animal. Here they are: allantoin (alantoin), asam amino, cholesterol, kolagen, colours/dye, cystine (sistina), elastine, gelatine (gelatin), glycerine (gliserin), hyaluronic acid (asam hialuronat), hydrolysed animal protein, keratin, lanolin, lypids, oleic acid (asam oleat), stearic acid (asam stearat), stearyl alcohol, tallow (lemak hewan), vitamin A.

Personally, I think that using cosmetiques properly is good, but using halal cosmetiques properly is the best.
