| Resumo: | In the face of the growing consumption of cosmetic products and the consequent generation
of waste, concerns arise about the conscious disposal of these materials by consumers. This
study aims to present the profile of cosmetic product disposal in Natal over 18 months,
seeking to raise awareness among health authorities about the need for specific legislation.
The study was conducted through an exploratory and descriptive approach, analyzing the
waste discarded by the population during the actions of the Conscious Disposal Project at the
Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte from March 2022 to September 2023. The
collected material was properly separated, considering safety, compliance with the Brazilian
Regulatory Agency (Anvisa) regulations, and the purpose of the product, and was
subsequently destined for the incineration process. In total, 947 products were collected, with
highlights including nail polish, sunscreens, hair products, and lipsticks. The improper
disposal of these materials contributes to environmental impacts, emphasizing the need for
5
effective public policies. When combined with public education, these policies have the
potential to reverse or mitigate the situation. Therefore, the government, at the municipal,
state, and national levels, should adopt stringent measures to promote conscious and
sustainable disposal of cosmetic products. |
