Decorative paper itself is non-toxic, but its composition and manufacturing process may affect its safety. ‌ Decorative paper is usually composed of organic or inorganic pigments, glue, etc., which do not pose a threat to human health under normal use. However, if the decorative paper contains heavy metals or other harmful substances, it may have adverse effects on human health. Especially for decorations such as tattoo stickers used by children, if inferior materials are used, they may contain carcinogens such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which enter the body through skin contact or the digestive tract and may pose potential risks to health. ‌

Therefore, when choosing decorative paper, you should pay attention to its composition and production process, and ensure that environmentally friendly materials and products produced by regular manufacturers are used to reduce potential health risks.
