Information on the exposure to metal toxins through dermal contact is very scanty, and few data exist on the personal care products (Ayenimo et al., 2010). Complete understanding of the mechanisms of toxicity and knowledge on the mode of action is of practical importance. Detail description of the toxicity of heavy metals and their mode of action is beyond the scope of this article. However, the logical steps by which toxicity results are typically as follows: Delivery of toxicants > reaction of toxicants with target molecules > manifestation of dysfunction > counter reaction (repair)/failure of counter reaction (disrepair) > toxicity. Mode of action typically starts with the reaction of metals with target molecules and ends with toxic manifestations (Prasad and Shanker, 2008). The aim of this project was to ascertain the quality of various cosmetics products on the basis of heavy metal concentration. This research project will attract people to select human friendly products. It will also bring awareness among the people not to place in the market any cosmetic products which are spurious and liable to cause damage to human health when it is applied under normal conditions of use.
