Follow on Google News | Natural Skin Care Company Offers Chemical Free ChoicesThe average American uses up to 12 different skin care products daily with a combination of 168 different ingredients. Many of these chemical-based ingredients are designed to penetrate the skin’s inner layers and end up inside the body.
By: Pure & Essential Minerals Natural Skin care Because the FDA has very little oversight of skin care products, consumers have to be hyper-aware about what they're putting on their skin. Here are some numbers gathered by the Environmental Working Group, a citizen-based research group, that quantifies the state of safety in skin care products we use daily: - American adults spray, slather or rub on average 12 different cosmetics or personal care products on their skin every day. - While using these products, they apply on average 168 different ingredients to the skin each day. - 22 percent of personal care products on the market contain at least one chemical that is linked to cancer. - Our skin absorbs into the body 60 percent of the makeup, creams and lotions that we apply each day. Unless consumers are hyper-vigilant about the ingredients contained in the products they put on their skin, there's a pretty likely chance that one or more of their skin care products contains a carcinogenic or cancer-causing ingredient. This is mostly due to the fact that cosmetic companies are responsible for testing product safety themselves. FDA guidelines state, "Cosmetic firms are solely responsible for substantiating the safety of their ingredients and products before putting them to market." They also state that, "a manufacturer may use any ingredient in the formulation of a cosmetic or lotion provided that the ingredient and the finished cosmetic are safe, the product is properly labeled, and the use of the ingredient does not otherwise cause the cosmetic to be adulterated or mis-branded under the laws that FDA enforces." These are very loose guidelines and open to all sorts of low standards when it comes to customers health. Fortunately, for consumers in search of more natural alternatives, Pure & Essential Minerals has taken the guesswork out of choosing the most natural products available.
