Normas antioxidantes para rizadores de pestañas utilizados en climas húmedos
In regions with high humidity, such as Southeast Asia or coastal South America, cosmetic tools are prone to rapid oxidation. For an eyelash curler¡ªa tool used in close proximity to the sensitive eye area¡ªrust isn’t just an aesthetic flaw; it¡¯s a hygiene crisis.
Material Selection: The First Line of Defense
Most budget eyelash curl tools are made of basic carbon steel with a thin nickel plating. However, for humid markets, premium manufacturers adhere to higher material standards:
304 Acero inoxidable: The gold standard for rust resistance. It contains chromium and nickel, which form a self-healing oxide layer.
Carbon Steel with Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD): A process that provides a more uniform and durable coating than traditional plating, sealing the metal from moisture.
Testing Protocols
Reliable factories utilize Salt Spray Testing (ASTM B117). A high-quality curler should withstand at least 48 a 72 hours of continuous salt fog exposure without showing signs of red rust.
The Role of the Silicone Pad
Humidity can also cause mold growth under the silicone pad. Standards now require High-Consistency Rubber (HCR) or antimicrobial-treated silicone to ensure the interface between the metal and the lash remains sterile.
