  Finding the ingredients lists for natural skin care products

   

  Beware of natural skin care product lines that don’t list all their ingredients on their website. If a skin care product line that claims to be natural or organic lists only “key” ingredients or only names a few natural or herbal ingredients, then it’s very likely that they  have something to hide.

   

  Most truly natural skin care companies, who really believe that all their ingredients are safe and healthy, will provide the complete ingredients list on their website.

   

  At worst, at least until today, an e-mail to the company will generally get the ingredients list or a link to where it can be found.

   

  However, I was sent on a wild goose chase yesterday and today when I tried to get the ingredients in the new “Pink Body” line by Victoria’s Secret. They claim the ingredients in their new skin care products are natural, organic and 100% vegan. If you try to locate the ingredients on their website, all you will find is two or three ingredients listed in a brief description of each product.

   

  When I see a skin care company that claims such high standards for the ingredients in their supposedly natural and organic skin care products on top of alleging they are also “green,” I want to check them out!

   

  Because I didn’t find complete ingredients lists on their website, I did the usual and sent them an e-mail. The response I got back mentioned the same few ingredients they list on their website and they directed me back to the website. When I replied and said I wanted the COMPLETE ingredients lists for their products, they sent me the phone number for the lab that does their MSDS’s (manufacturers safety data sheets). I called and spoke with a very helpful gentleman who then told me that the MSDS’s don’t contain ALL the ingredients in each product. He then gave me the corporate phone number for Victoria’s Secret and a lab that actually manufactures some of the products.

   

  I wasn’t about to waste any more time trying to chase down all the ingredients in these supposedly organic, natural and vegan skin care products. If they put that much effort into making the ingredients unavailable to the consumer, I can only assume that they have something to hide.

   

  Now it is up to Victoria’s Secret to come forward with full disclosure! I dare them!

   

  In the meantime, make sure you can read the entire ingredients list and all the ingredients are safe for any skin care product you intend to buy. Dying To Look Good will help you decipher the safety of ingredients you find on the labels when you shop.

  Tips to help you choose the best natural skin care products

   

  Always read all the ingredients on the label of every natural skin care product before you buy.

   

  Just because an herbal skin care product claims to be natural doesn’t mean it is. It may contain a few herbs along with synthetic ingredients, contaminants that cause cancer or chemicals that cause some type of harmful effects.

   

  Not all plant derived skin care ingredients are natural. If the label says an ingredient was derived from coconut, it may or may not be natural, depending on the extent and type of processing. Many plant-derived ingredients are so heavily processed they don’t come close to resembling the plant from which they were derived.

   

  A manufacturer of skin care products may claim that their products are natural or organic, but that doesn’t mean it’s true. The cosmetic, skin care and personal care products industry is highly unregulated. There’s a lot of misinformation presented by the companies in this industry. You can’t believe the advertising or the product labels. The truth is in the ingredients list.

   

  If you don’t want to read the ingredients list on all the natural and organic skin care products you buy, make sure that you choose skin care products that were certified organic by the USDA National Organic Program. Other organic certifying organizations allow ingredients that should not be in organic products.

   

  The bottom line: Read the ingredients list and make sure all the ingredients in every natural skin care product you buy are healthy. Or buy only USDA certified organic skin care products.

  Natural skin care remedies

   

  A good basic all natural and organic skin care program is important for everyone. But a simple, one-size-fits-all program isn’t always enough for each individual. Some people need a more personalized program than one that addresses even the different skin types.

   

  A healthy all natural skin care program may include additional specific products targeted to address certain situations unique to your needs.

   

  Here are a few natural skin care products for facial care that may help your skin become healthier and improve your appearance…

   

  For photodamaged skin, if you’ve spent too much unprotected time in the sun, try Probiotic Skin Brightener. It’s a certified organic skin care product that will help restore the pH balance of your skin, break down impurities in the skin and lighten and brighten your complexion.

   

  Does your skin look irritated and red? Soothing Couperose Gel is a toning and strengthening herbal natural skin care product for sensitive or reddened skin. It contains highly concentrated healing botanical extracts.

   

  If you have acne, you’ve probably tried a lot of different products on the market. Many acne remedies contain a wide variety of chemical ingredients that are best avoided in skin care products. Purifying Blemish Gel is an effective certified organic all natural skin care product with a combination of healing, calming and soothing herbs specifically designed for problem skin.

   

  When you feel stressed or your skin looks stressed and dehydrated, refresh with Rose Monsoon Hydrating Mist. It’s great if you work in an air conditioned office or when traveling on an airplane.

   

  Next time we’ll take a look at some all natural and organic anti-aging skin care products.

  All natural skin care tips for normal/combination skin

   

  A good cleansing, conditioning and moisturizing program is just as important for normal skin as it is for oily and sensitive skin.

   

  Cleanse with 100% organic and natural skin care products to eliminate the dead cells, perspiration and pollution from the top layer of skin and help keep your skin fresh and healthy looking. It will give you a vibrant complexion.

   

  Use a natural, organic skin care exfoliant a few times a week to clear congestion from dead cell build up and to get a glowing healthy look. Don’t exfoliate if you have blemishes.

   

  Deep cleanse your skin twice a week with an all natural and organic skin care mineral mask to draw out toxins within the skin that cannot be washed away with a cleanser or exfoliant. This is especially beneficial in helping clear up blemishes. Be sure to condition and moisturize after using the mineral mask.

   

  Using an all natural, herbal skin care conditioner is important after cleansing to nourish the skin and provide a base to lock in the moisturizer

   

  Finally, moisturize with a top quality natural certified organic skin care moisturizer to prevent free radical damage and moisture loss. It also helps keep your skin soft and smooth.

   

  Here are my top picks for certified organic natural skin care for normal or combination skin:

   

  Balancing Cleanser

  Garnet Exfoliant

  Balancing Mineral Mask

  Balancing Skin Conditioner

  Balancing Moisturizer

   

  Treat your skin well and you’ll look great!

  Best all natural skin care for babies

   

  Shopping for natural skin care for babies can be very confusing and frustrating. The packaging says things like tear-free, gentle, ultra mild, yet the product contains ingredients like

   

  ·         sodium laureth sulfate - a skin and eye irritant that may cause dermatitis; also a penetration enhancer

  ·         various different PEG compounds – eye and skin irritants which are known to contain the cancer-causing contaminant 1,4-dioxane; they’re considered hazardous on large areas of the body

  ·         quaternium 15 – primary cause of dermatitis related to preservatives in skin care products; releases formaldehyde which is known to cause cancer; may cause asthma, respiratory arrest and birth defects; also a skin and eye irritant

  ·         fragrance – may contain hundreds of different chemicals, some hazardous, some cause cancer; considered a trade secret, manufacturers are not required to disclose ingredients

  ·         D&C colors – most derived from cancer-causing coal tar; must be certified not to contain more than 20 ppm of lead and arsenic; certification does not address any other harmful effects they may have on the body

  ·         and more.

   

  You would not expect natural baby skin care to contain harsh and harmful ingredients.

   

  There are many natural brands on the market, but you have to be very diligent and read the ingredients carefully each time you buy because not all so-called natural brands contain truly healthy ingredients.

   

  One of the best natural skin care brand for babies is Miessence. You can feel confident in these Australian natural skin care products for your precious little ones. They contain only the finest organic and natural ingredients. No synthetic preservatives. No ingredients derived from petroleum. No ingredients containing cancer-causing contaminants.

   

  Only the finest organic, natural herbal skin care for your infants and children.
