The Search For The Best All Natural Skin Care Products.
Posted by Peter Albertonach at Mar 7th, 2010 in General Health
Worldwide there is a groundswell of women looking to find more natural skin care products. Millions of women are now searching out the best all natural skin care products, and for good reason.
Because there is a growing realization amongst consumers that our skin care products as well as our cosmetics and many personal and beauty products contain potentially harmful ingredients.
A quick example, a recent study found lead in over 50% of big brand lipsticks tested.
And whilst its good to look better or have better skin or use a nice smelling soap or deodorant or other personal product its not as important as guarding your health. After all, who wants lead in their system?
And big name manufacturers are now recognizing this and trying to get a foothold in the natural products market.
Recently L’Oreal has purchased The Body Shop to get a toehold in the natural personal products market.
So back to skin care. Firstly lets ask ourselves what all natural means. First thing to note is that there is no formal definition of all natural when it comes to skin care products, or cosmetics or other products.
It’s not known what natural formally means, and for this reason there are companies out there marketing “natural” products containing chemicals that most would not consider “natural”.
So what do we do if we’re looking for the best all natural skin care products and there are some out there which can still contain potentially nasty ingredients?
Well remember, for most women the reason they are looking for natural skin care products is that they want products that are SAFE to use, as well as work well.
So we can, once we know this, use this information to our advantage.
So what do we actually do? Firstly search out and find the Cosmetics Safety Database website. It looks at most of the ingredients found in a wide range of personal products and considers their potential health risks, and rates those health risks.
So you can actually search the various ingredients used in products and see what risks they pose, though of course these are hotly debated by the mainstream cosmetics and skin care industry. For example go there and search parabens and see what you get. A list of the various parabens (a chemical preservative) used in products, and their considered risk potential to health.
Then search out the website of the Campaign For Safe Cosmetics. There you can find a compact that any company can sign to pledge them to only producing safe products that don’t contain potentially dangerous ingredients. Get there and you can search this to see if the company that makes the products you use has signed.
And if you find a company that has signed the compact you know they have pledged themselves to making safe products.
So you’ve found a company that makes natural skin care products and has signed. So their products are safe. But how do you know they’re any good? Well to me any company that offers a money back guarantee on their products must have good products. But even amongst the natural skin care companies that have signed getting a guarantee is very rare.
And once you’ve done your search you’ll find that one company has signed the compact AND offers a full money back guarantee, and it’s that company that makes the best all natural skin care products.
Find out who they are on my website.
