Anti-Aging Skin Care Can Do More Harm Than Good
True Anti-Aging products should be safe, gentle, and free of known toxins, allergens and irritants. This is because, like the sun and pollution, irritating synthetic ingredients can age the skin prematurely leaving it dull and lackluster. Unfortunately, most companies that use cosmecutical grade ingredients are counteracting their corrective benefits by using harmful additives in the formulating process. Just like food, your body quickly and efficiently ingests what you put on your skin and just like food it should be of the highest nutritional value and purity.
Here is a list of the most commonly used skin care ingredients that you should avoid:
Synthetic Fragrance
Synthetic Color
Synthetic AHA's and BHA's
Sodium Laurel Sulfates
Petrochemicals
Formaldehyde releasing preservatives
Urea, Vinyl, Nylon and Nitrates
Alcohol, Phthaletes and Amines
PABA and other synthetic sunscreen
Propylene Glycols
Parabens
Sulfates |
