The Search For The Best All Natural Skin Care Products.
The movement towards all natural skin care products is gaining momentum. And for good reason. And so many women who are new to this area of the anti aging industry are now trying to work out which are the best all natural skin care products.
Gradually consumers are realizing that our skin care products and cosmetics as well as many other personal products can contain 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.
Its no coincidence that L'Oreal has recently bought The Body Shop, a huge seller of all natural personal products.
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?
We're looking because we want to use the best skin care products that are SAFE to use. We don't want to use any products that may pose any risk to our health in the process of using them.
So we can, once we know this, use this information to our advantage.
So how do we use this? We find the website for the Cosmetics Safety Database. Here you can search various ingredients used in products and find a rating of their potential health risks.
So you can use this information to search the ingredients of personal products to see if it is considered that they pose any health risk. As an example you could search "parabens" (a popular and cheap preservative often used in personal products) and see what you get.
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 the company that makes the products you use has signed you know they should make 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.
One company has both signed the compact and offer 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.
