Six Good Reasons to Use Organic, Non-toxic Skin Care Products
by Brenda Gouin, Certified Esthetician
- Your skin absorbs things easily (some people may argue this is not true, but all you need to do is think about nicotine and birth control patches to see that your skin really does absorb things effectively).
- In North America 90% of ingredients in your personal-care products have never been tested for safety by anyone. Even scarier, the FDA has only restricted 9 ingredients in 67 years.
- As we all know, cancer rates are really high and even the established medical community is starting to realize that it’s largely due to the huge number of carcinogens that we’re exposed to on a daily basis with woman generally being exposed to more than men because of their beauty routines.
- Hormone-disrupting ingredients found in personal-care products are affecting everyone from teenage girls to newborn babies to grown men and woman; many of these ingredients (e.g. phthalates) are not even listed on ingredient lists as they can be hidden within other ingredients or listed under "fragrance."
- Good quality organic brands are not only more healthy for you, but also strongly support sustainable farming methods, fair trade, and eco-friendly policies.
- You're worth it! Treat your body with the respect it deserves. Feed it junk and it will respond accordingly. Feed it well and it will serve you well!
