How Safe Is Your Moisturizer?
Cosmetic industry, a multi billion industry, is a very dirty one in need of better practices and more government oversight. Organic Consumer Association suggests that existing safety practices among skin care and cosmetics producers are not adequate and that consumers must be vigilant and more informed about the skin care products in the market. It goes without saying that we need tougher rules for organic skin care and cosmetics products labeled “organicâ€Â
It is like Dr. Elizabeth Warren’s “toaster†analogy, that is, you can’t buy a toaster in this country with a chance of explosion in one out of five. Yet, you can easily buy a mortgage. It’s the same in the skin care and cosmetic industry. You can go to the store and easily purchase a moisturizer that has all the harmful substances for your skin and nobody warns you about that. There is no government agency that protects consumer’s health and safety when it comes to skin care products and cosmetics.
It is everyone’s most ...
... fundamental right to know the ingredients of the food they eat but also the moisturizer or face serum they put on their skin as skin absorbs almost everything. There are toxic ingredients to avoid known for their carcinogenic and hormone disrupting effects such as dimethicone, paraben, formaldehyde, hexane, phthalates and aluminum among others. And there is no strict regulatory action.
So what to do? Look for the organic seal, as the Organic Consumer Association new campaign suggests “If It Doesn’t Have the Seal, It Ain’t the Real Dealâ€Â. Trust United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), ECOCERT, BIO, UK Soil Association or Biological Framers and Organic Growers of Australia (OGA) Certified Organic products before you make a purchase. These are the most respected, stringent and accepted organic standards in the world. Also, consult our Glossary of Ingredients and read the labels.
Your organic moisturizer is made with pure certified organic botanical and vegetable ingredients in sync with your skin’s Ph, sebum production and natural processes. You can buy confidently organic skin care products for they are safe, pure and clean. And we do understand your concerns over effectiveness. Is my organic daily moisturizer as effective as the regular one? Can my organic face serum compete with the department store luxury brand? The answer is yes to all of your questions.
When you switch to organic you’ll know the difference. And soon you’ll become an organic enthusiast like us. Organic products are in harmony with your body, your skin, your immune system and with our planet. They work with you not against you. So next time, you know what to do, read the ingredients list (INCI) and refuse to buy any skin care and cosmetics product that compromises your health.
