In modern fast-paced life, cosmetics are indispensable in people's lives, but sometimes it may be because the ingredients of the cosmetics themselves cause the skin to react, or it may be because the cosmetics are not cleaned during processing. Therefore, more and more cosmetics factories have built high-standard clean room, and the production workshops have also been dust free, and the dust free requirements are very strict.
