Finding the perfect product is more than loving the packaging, the smell or the texture. What truly makes a product perfect is the synergy of ingredients waiting to infuse your skin with natural goodness. Sounds good doesn’t it, but how “natural” are your skin care products? Have you ever taken the time to carefully read the labels? How many of those ingredients are truly natural and can you even pronounce half the names?
Take the time today to sit down with your shampoos, toothpastes, skin care and make up products. Collectively we are becoming more and more conscious of what we are putting into their bodies and we should be equally concerned with what we are putting onto their skins, directly and indirectly.
It is estimated that your skin absorbs approximately 64% of what is applied to it and reaches your bloodstream within 26 second! Your skin lives.... it breathes, it eats, it regenerates. Are ingredients used in industrial antifreeze (propylene glycol) and car wash soaps (SLS) the ingredients you want to apply to your skin? Do you want to apply that to your children?
The pages of glossy magazines are filled with the latest and greatest cosmetic products, luring you in with shiny packaging, fruity fragrances and the latest greatest “technology”. Don’t be fooled, protect yourself and your family form hidden carcinogens and harmful ingredients by reading your product labels, and by consulting a skin expert.
