Abstract

The field of aesthetics has grown a lot in recent years and Brazil is considered the third largest market in the world in beauty products and services, even with an unfavorable financial scenario, beauty salons are still part of the daily lives of Brazilians. In this context, there is a concern with the quality of services provided with regard to customer health, since it is a very favorable environment for microbial contamination and as a result the proliferation of diseases such as seborrheic dermatitis, nail mycosis, hepatitis, conjunctivitis, among others. Thus, it is important that the good professional practices of the establishments are being applied, the correct hygienization of the utensils and surfaces, the sterilization in the materials that must go through this procedure, such as: nail pliers. Thus, the research proposal is to evaluate if the good professional practices are being well applied, through microbiological analyses (mesophiles and moulds and yeasts) of utensils and surfaces of beauty salons participating in the research, besides approaching the development of a formulation with bactericidal action under study, in order to be used on surfaces of beauty salons and utensils to avoid microbial contamination. The result of the microbiological analyses, after the hygienization of the most critical surfaces, with the multipurpose product containing microbicide substance, was excellent, a very low microbial growth was obtained, on some surfaces there was no such growth, as for example, the workbench of Bessa's salon, thus showing once again the effectiveness of the product and that it is suitable to be used for this purpose. Regarding the make-up brushes, the results were also satisfactory, besides proving that the product removes dirt, through the weight of the brushes before and after cleaning, it was also proved that there is no microbial growth when the brushes were submitted to cleaning with the multi-purpose cleaner product. Thus proving the effectiveness of the multi-purpose product for salon appliances
