Dangers
Glowsticks contain hydrogen peroxide, and phenol is produced as a by-product. Therefore, it is advisable to keep the mixture away from skin, and to prevent accidental ingestion, if the glowstick case splits or breaks. If spilled on skin, the chemicals could cause slight skin irritation or, in extreme circumstances, cause vomiting and nausea.[citation needed] However, many ravers will cut or break open a glowstick and apply the glowing solution directly to bare skin in order to make their bodies glow. It is also a widespread myth that glowstick chemicals cause cancer.[4] This is simply a myth and no research has suggested that it might. Also it is wise to avoid all contact with thin membranes such as the eye or nasal area. Despite reports to the contrary, it is not safe to smoke or ingest glowing phenol, and it will not produce any drug-like effects. The fluid contained in glowsticks can also dissolve some types of plastic.
Newer glowsticks in production are non-toxic.[citation needed] Wash with soap and water if liquid comes in contact with the skin. Flush eyes immediately with cool water if liquid comes in contact with the eyes. Some of the chemicals in glow sticks are flammable.
