Round-the-clock moisturizing for radiant, youthful-looking skin – without putting your health at risk

It’s no secret among researchers that small but frequent exposures to potentially hazardous chemicals can potentially be more harmful than a few larger exposures. The danger lies in their cumulative effect. If you’re using one of today’s many moisturizers that include these often hidden ingredients, you may be risking your health in the pursuit of glowing, youthful-looking skin.
Clear and healthy-looking skin doesn’t just happen on its own, at least not for most people. For radiant, youthful-looking skin you must pay attention to more than one variable – from eating a healthy, fresh diet to regularly cleansing and moisturizing to replenish your skin. Moisturizers are important for relieving dry skin, but they offer many additional benefits for your healthy skin.
They enhance and preserve your skin’s smoothness and help avoid the dry skin cycle that can make your skin look older than your years.

Plus, a high-quality moisturizer with the right ingredients can help...

  • Soften your skin and protect against and alleviate chapping, cracking, itching and roughness due to dryness.
  • Promote your skin’s tone and elasticity and smooth the appearance of wrinkles.

  • Hydrate your skin while replenishing and protecting your skin’s moisture barrier.
  • Protect your skin against the abuse of the elements and prevent damage caused by dryness.

  • Revitalize and brighten the appearance of your skin.

Why the words “Organic”, “Natural” or “Botanical” don’t guarantee you’ll receive authentic natural ingredients

Many are surprised to learn that, unlike food, there are no federal regulations for beauty products, including moisturizers. Any company can claim its product is “natural” or “organic.” Just because some brands of moisturizers contain ingredients derived from natural sources, it doesn’t mean they are organic or natural.

So unless a product displays the USDA Organic Seal on its packaging, the word “organic” may be meaningless. A product containing a small handful of organic ingredients can’t be called a Certified Organic product, no matter what the label says. For a product to bear that prestigious seal, it must contain at least 95 percent organically produced ingredients.

With moisturizers and other products that you apply to your skin, the devil is in the details. Your skin is your largest organ and when you lather on moisturizer, its chemicals flow right through your skin and into your bloodstream without any filtering. From there, they go straight to your organs.  Because your body doesn’t have enzymes to break down chemicals, they accumulate over time. Here’s what’s especially troubling about the long-term accumulation of chemicals in your body..

Small but frequent exposures can be more harmful than a few larger exposures.

The danger lies in the cumulative effect of chemicals. Any product that’s designed to moisturize is by nature more readily absorbed into your skin.  However, some products contain chemicals that enhance skin absorption even further, with the potential to drive toxic ingredients deeper into your skin
and, ultimately, your organs.

8 chemicals you may be applying to your skin if you use some top-selling moisturizers

You have many choices when it comes to skin moisturizers. However, not all are ideal for your skin or your health. Many top-selling products contain
potentially hazardous ingredients. However, it’s surprisingly difficult to find out what those ingredients are, especially with moisturizers sold online, as
their ingredient lists are often hidden from view.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the more challenging it is to view all the ingredients in a product, and not just the top two or three active ingredients, the more its manufacturer may have to hide.
So, when shopping online for moisturizers, search until you discover all the ingredients in a product. This can take some effort, but it may be the only way to know what exactly you’ll be applying to your skin. Those hard-to-find ingredients could include one or more of the following nine chemicals rated potentially harmful by the Environmental Working Group (EWG):
An alcohol used as a skin conditioning agent and fragrance ingredient, its concerns have been rated “high” by the EWG for skin, eyes and lungs and “moderate” for organ system toxicity. Plus, it enhances skin absorption, which adds to its negative effects.

This family of preservatives mimics the action of the female hormone estrogen and can drive tumor growth. Plus, parabens can act as potent hormone or endocrine disruptors. EWG gives them a “high” rating for endocrine disruption concerns.

This is a surfactant that comes with “high” concerns for contamination with potentially toxic impurities (such as 1,4-dioxane, a likely carcinogen), and “low” yet still significant concerns for enhanced skin absorption.

Used as a barrier to lock in skin moisture, this semisolid mixture of hydrocarbons from petroleum has earned “high” concerns for both contamination and organ system toxicity. The European Union classifies petrolatum as a carcinogen and restricts its use, but it is widely used in American products.

A silicon-based polymer used as a lubricant and conditioning agent, this chemical has been rated by the EWG as “moderate” for concerns of organ system toxicity.

A polyethylene glycol ester that acts as a surfactant, it has earned “moderate” concerns for contamination and organ system toxicity.

A polyethylene glycol ester that acts as a surfactant, it has earned “moderate” concerns for contamination and organ system toxicity.

Fragrance or “parfum” is rated “high” for overall concerns for health and “moderate” concerns for immune system toxicity, allergies, skin, eye and lung irritation and organ system toxicity. A synthetic fragrance can contain dozens of untested and unlisted chemicals, including carcinogen phthalates, which accumulate in human tissue. There are many more ingredients that may be harmful to not only your skin but your overall health. For the most part, ingredients in personal care products are not tested for safety.

“Fragrance Free” and “Hypoallergenic” moisturizers – enough to help you avoid harsh chemicals?

If you have sensitive skin or need a product that won’t exacerbate an existing skin concern, you know how important it is to avoid ingredients that can be irritating.

So what do you do?
If you’re like many others, you look for products labeled “fragrance free” or “hypoallergenic”.

But is that enough to truly give you the insurance you need?
A university dermatologist and his colleagues recently put that question to the test. They searched online and visited big-box stores to identify 174 of the most popular brand-name moisturizers. What they discovered when studying their contents was truly stunning…

The majority of products labeled “fragrance-free” or “hypoallergenic” contained some form of potential skin allergen. And nearly half of products advertised as “fragrance free” contained a fragrance. Only 12% of the best-selling moisturizers advertised as “hypoallergenic” were free of potentially allergenic chemicals.

Another study by a dermatologist-led team took an even closer look at moisturizers. Here’s what they found when they analyzed 276 products:

68% contained synthetic fragrances or “parfum”
62% contained parabens
20% contained propylene glycol and formaldehyde releasers
While “fragrance-free” is certainly a step in the right direction if the product is truly free of synthetic fragrance, relying on the word “hypoallergenic” to
avoid potentially harmful ingredients may be misleading and potentially dangerous.

I suggest a different approach…
Rather than choosing products with questionable ingredients that may pose a risk to your health, I recommend looking for ingredients like these that you can not only pronounce, but trust…
