The Search For The Best All Natural Skin Care Products.

There is a worldwide movement towards more natural skin care products. And there’s a good reason for this. There are now millions of women looking for natural skin care and trying to determine which are the best all natural skin care products.
Gradually consumers are realizing that our skin care products and cosmetics as well as many other personal products can contain harmful ingredients.
As an example a study done recently found lead in over 50% of big brand name lipsticks that you may well use now.
And whilst its good to look better or have better skin or use a nice smelling soap or deodorant or other personal product its not as important as guarding your health. After all, who wants lead in their system?
And big name manufacturers are now recognizing this and trying to get a foothold in the natural products market.
L’Oreal has recently bought The Body Shop, a big seller of natural personal products.
Now lets consider skin care. Firstly, what does “all natural” mean when applied to skin care? Well there is no definition of natural for either cosmetics or skin care or other products.
It’s not known what natural formally means, and for this reason there are companies out there marketing “natural” products containing chemicals that most would not consider “natural”.
So if there are still “natural” products out there that we should avoid how do we find the best all natural skin care products?
If you’re looking for a “natural” product it’s pretty sure you’re looking for a product what works well and is SAFE.
So once we recognize this we can use this information to find what we want.
So what do we actually do? Firstly search out and find the Cosmetics Safety Database website. It looks at most of the ingredients found in a wide range of personal products and considers their potential health risks, and rates those health risks.
So you can look at any product and search the ingredients to see if they are considered unsafe to health. You could search “parabens” for example, (a popular chemical preservative) and see what risks parabens pose.
Then search out the website of the Campaign For Safe Cosmetics. There you can find a compact that any company can sign to pledge them to only producing safe products that don’t contain potentially dangerous ingredients. Get there and you can search this to see if the company that makes the products you use has signed.
And if a company has signed that compact it should make safe skin care products. You can search this compact for any company name to see if they have signed.
So that covers safety. How do you know if the company that makes those all natural skin care products actually makes good skin care products? Well the best way I know is to find a company that gives you a money back guarantee on their products. Even amongst the good natural skin care companies getting a money back guarantee is rare.
Yes there is a company that has signed the compact and offers a full money back guarantee on their products, and they make the best all natural skin care products.
Find out who they are on my website.
