Personal care products that you put on your face, hands, hair,
or body go right through your skin and get absorbed into your tissue and
bloodstream within 26 minutes. Skin absorption is just one entry route for
the 200-plus common chemicals the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) found that most people harbor in their bodies. The upside is that personal
care is a route you can control by choosing which products to use. To read the full article, please visit http://www.safecosmetics.org/article.php?id=1141. Here are three examples:
Shampoo: BAD CHOICE: Hemp
Hydrating Shampoo
EWG Score: 9 (the group gives its worst rating, “High
Hazard,” to products with a rating of 7 to 10)
Amazon reviewers enthused
that this product smells “delicious and organic, kind of like a homemade
hippie soap.” But it’s rare that either homemade or organic soaps would
include substances containing formaldehyde or oxtinoxate (which risks
“developmental or reproductive toxicity”).
Moisturizer: BAD CHOICE: St.
Ives Facial Moisturizer, Timeless Skin Collagen Elastin
EWG Score: 5
Though it’s one of the top
50 beauty products sold on Amazon, this moisturizer contains mineral oil
(toxic to some bodily organs), fragrance mix, and propylene glycol, an immune
system-challenging chemical that enhances absorption of its ingredients.
Pass!
Shower Wash/ Liquid Soap: BAD CHOICE: The
Body Shop Mango Shower Gel
EWG Score: 7
It’s surprising that this
iconic “healthy” brand contains ingredients associated with endocrine
(hormone) disruption, allergies, and damage to the immune system.

ViViD Hair Therapy
stays true to the mission of beauty through pure product innovation.
Over time, hair can
become dry, dull and damaged from styling, coloring, and the environment.
Even some shampoos can strip hair of essential, natural oils that nourish,
protect and enhance shine. And, if your hair care neglects the scalp, your
regimen is incomplete. Beautiful hair begins with a healthy scalp. Scalp
skincare is vital for vibrant hair.
So, don’t let your
hair down! Care for your hair with a daily regimen that is vigorous, full of
life – ViViD!

Plus Jojoba seed mimics natural skin lipids to help keep skin hydrated and healthy! |
We
continue to hear more and more about the beauty industry and their claims of
“natural” skin & hair care products. But the truth is you can’t
believe all of what you read or see. Most people know that food and drugs are
regulated, so they assume that the ingredients in personal care and beauty
products are as well. Major loopholes in U.S. federal law allow the $50
billion cosmetics industry to put unlimited amounts of chemicals into
personal care products with no required testing, no monitoring of health
effects and inadequate labeling requirements. In fact, cosmetics are among
the least-regulated products on the market.

HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!
