Ingredients in Skincare Products

After paying a small fortune for “Hope in a Bottle,” it is a great disappointment to discover that what you just bought is actually pure poison in a bottle and nothing else. Forget about hope!!! The time has come to expose the truth!
Did you know that it is not unusual to find things like mercury, lead, cyanide, formaldehyde, antifreeze, sulfates, phthalates, petroleum products and carcinogenic preservatives in almost every product you’ll find in the stores? (And in your bathroom!) I’m not kidding – this is the absolute truth! And the worst thing is, you’ll find most of these chemicals in organic products as well, products that you buy from your health food store in good faith!!!
If you don’t believe me, get your magnifying glass out and start reading the ingredient lists on the labels. Look at Jason, Alba Botanicals, Derma e, Arbonne (Note that Arbonne only lists “key ingredients” and nothing else! Why do you think that is???), Avon, Rachel Perry and whatever else you have in your bathroom. Rachel Perry has a collagen cream that doesn’t even have collagen listed as one of the ingredients. (Never mind the fact that collagen molecules are too big to enter the skin anyway.)
This is deceit, pure and simple. You are willing to spend more money because you think the product is organic, healthy and good for you, and made with integrity and love, while the truth is, it is a business. The products are made to make money, and when there is a question of money, integrity often flies out the window. After all, business is business, and what the consumer wants, needs or thinks she is getting, becomes a secondary priority.
I have found a website where they have a huge database of the chemicals used in skincare products and a rating of how safe or dangerous they are. So, if you are wondering if one of the products you are using daily is safe to use, I’ll be happy to look into it and tell you the truth. Let me know which brand or product you want me to expose, and I’ll write a post about how many moderate or high risk substances it contains. Let’s expose the deceit in the makeup industry so that women will no longer be fooled by great advertising and empty words!
Remember, we are the only ones responsible for what we put on our skins! If we know the truth, we can no longer be fooled! And if we can no longer be fooled, the industry will have to change if they want to stay in business. Lets create the change we want!
