Why you should choose natural skin care?

With all the media and the news to warn consumers of potentially toxic ingredients in many products commercially available skin care sold in supermarkets and department stores, it's an easy question to answer.

First, many commonly used products contain artificial skin care and / or synthetic ingredients that the body has difficulty eliminating, and therefore it tends to store these chemicals in its tissues. Research has shown that the accumulation of several of these drugs can have serious consequences for health.

If you're interested in learning more about some of the toxic chemicals used in products for skin care, please read the article "potentially toxic ingredients in skin products." You will be a lot of references and research information for you to be able to identify what is in your skin care and what should not be there.

Holistic care natural skin contain no artificial or synthetic ingredients. Not contain any isolated, strong substances such as parabens natural (pseudo-natural conservation) and others that have proven to be potentially dangerous.

How to choose natural products for skin care that are safe and effective?

This is where it starts to get really hard. You see many so-called skin care products natural or organic are actually nothing of the sort. Adding a minimum amount of aloe vera to the water is not a natural holistic skin care. It may be "natural" or even "organic", but it will not be effective and therefore are wasting your money.

For a product like aloe vera effective, it requires at least 10% of the total with aloe vera. Or, aloe vera should be combined with many other natural active ingredients are combined to obtain an accurate result.

The term 'organic' is another area where consumers are not misled. With the addition of one of the "organic" ingredients, and then calling the product as organic, it is simply wrong. You will see ads on television and in newspapers every day ... "Product XYZ that contains organic and biological," ... but makes no mention of any of the ingredients in these products, many of which have been shown to be hazardous to our health.

There is a problem with natural skin care products, which is an area of ​​confusion and potentially misleading. Just wondering what exactly is a "natural"? What is actually meant by the term "natural"?

"Natural" The word conger images of nature - pristine environments that make us feel good. A safe environment conducive to natural health and wellbeing. Spring water, waterfalls, lakes, a healthy salad, tropical forests, etc, are all the images we perceive as "natural" or in other words "good for us."

The cosmetics industry has made this and used the word natural in their advertising to instill a sense of well being and the idea that this product is good for us. Unfortunately, one or two natural ingredients is not a natural skin care are ... Far from it, the natural skin care should not contain ingredients that are not naturally occurring. This brings us to another problem with natural skin care.

Of course, by ingredient, such as a variety of Paraben, can still be dangerous. Just think about it - could put arsenic, lead to skin? Of course not, you. But they are natural, what is the problem? Natural substances may also be too deadly poisons.

Applying this to the products of skincare, may be looking for a product that is natural and contains AHA (alpha hydroxy acids), which is known to help remove the layers of dead skin cells which in turn helps to eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, skin revealing a new dynamic.

Now you can buy a product that lists one of its ingredients AHA, it may even contain AHA, in its name, or you can buy a product containing a concentrate called papain, a natural substance from the papaya. So, yes, papain is natural and yes, this product can, according to other ingredients, a product called natural skin care. However, papain is a concentrate and as such many people have experienced side effects, because the papain is present in concentrations too high for some people.

A natural product skin care does not contain papain truly integrated as an extract. On the contrary, it must contain within itself the papaya. You see, all the fruit also contains papain, however, also contains other ingredients that modify the effect of excessively strong papaya papain. Choose a product that, at least in large part to reduce potential side effects of papain, as the product is naturally balanced and contains natural ingredients balance that will benefit your skin rather than burn it.

The results of removing wrinkles and lines may take a little longer, but it is generally better, and you reduce the chances of "burn" your skin with an AHA concentration. Remember AHA stands for alpha-hydroxy acids and we all burn our skin.

Under normal circumstances, however, what kind of reaction if the products are kept, only takes a few days and this time the skin heals, and ultimately much healthier. This process is sometimes called a "healing crisis", and is a very good thing to happen.

This means that the ingredients do what they are supposed to, which is to repair and normalize the functions of the skin. This is normal and is actually a good reaction.

Bad Reactions New Products
