Halal certified cosmetic products are increasingly finding an important market in the market and are preferred by consumers. Heavy metals, which can be seen as the biggest pollutants of recent times, are also mentioned in the cosmetics world. Studies on the levels of heavy metal pollution in the cosmetics industry have not yet reached a sufficient number in the literature. In the present study, nine halal certified cosmetic products (lipstick, eye shadow, face powder) were digested with hydrogen peroxide and nitric acid by microwave acid digestion method. The toxic element (Cr, Hg, Mn, Ni, Co, Cu, Se, As, Fe, Zn, Cd, Al, Pb) contents of purchased halal certified cosmetic products (lipstick, eye shadow, face powder) were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The results provide interesting data on heavy metal levels in the cosmetics industry. The presence of Ni and Cu in brand 1 powder, Hg, Ni, Cu and Zn in brand 2 powder, Hg, Ni and Cu in brand 3 powder were not found. Ni and Cu in brand 1 eyeshadow, Fe, Cu, Zn, Cd and Hg in brand 2 eyeshadow, Ni, Cu, As and Hg in brand 3 eyeshadow were not found.
