At b.Skincaretx, we believe in embracing non-toxic, pure and simple skincare products. We are talking about your everyday routine skincare products, which sadly, can be more like chemical mixtures than gentle skincare.
A study by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) reveals that the average person applies over 126 different ingredients during their daily skincare routine. We encourage you to click the link and read the study. Alarmingly, many of these ingredients can be harmful, causing mayhem on our bodies and even on our planet.
Although there are so many harmful ingredients, here are some of the most common and concerning ones found in regular cosmetic products:
🚫 Parabens - Used as preservatives, parabens can disrupt human hormones in both men and women. They can increase estrogen production and interfere with fertility, length of menstrual cycle, even potentially leading to breast cancer. Parabens can also alter normal brain function.
🚫 Sulfates – Usually derived from petroleum or plant sources like palm oil, sulfates can irritate your skin, eyes, exacerbate asthmatic symptoms, lead to gastrointestinal (GI) problems. In addition they are potentially harmful to aquatic species, plants and trees by altering water and soil chemistry. Ethical beauty has never been more important!
🚫 Phthalates - Found in various products like fragrances, cleansers, lotions, phthalates are known endocrine (hormone) system disruptors, and have a negative impact on both male and female fertility. They have also been found to be toxic to developing fetuses.
When selecting skincare products, it's imperative to read labels carefully and choose those with fewer and more importantly, recognizable ingredients. At b.Skincare we are transparent about our ingredients and everything is listed and explained in detail on our website. Why do we do this? A huge part of our mission is to create gentle skincare that works without sacrificing quality! By making these conscious choices, we can safely and sustainably go forth on a healthy skincare journey.
As awareness grows about the harmful effects of various chemicals in our daily products, it underscores the importance of making mindful choices in personal care products for ourselves and our families. At b.Skincare, we are committed to offering products free from harmful chemicals, supporting your journey towards a non-toxic lifestyle.
Embracing non-toxic living and using ethical beauty products isn’t just a trend and it doesn’t have to be hard or overly expensive – it’s a new standard for a healthier, more radiant you.
Join us at b.Skincaretx in making non-toxic the new norm.
