NATURAL VS CHEMICALS!!! ♡

YOUR SKIN AND BODY ABSORB WHAT YOU PUT ON THEM

Our skin absorbs some of what gets put on it.

• Ingest products through the mouth – lipsticks
• Inhale - Sprays & powders
• Hand creams can be ingested when we eat with our hands.

Sticking to natural plant based products will reduce your toxic chemical load.

WE ARE EXPOSED TO SO MANY CHEMICALS EVERYDAY

The average woman’s beauty routine is exposing her to hundreds of chemicals each day. From hair spray, to shampoo, makeup, facial wash, lotions/creams.

We would be so much better off if we could lower this amount.

CHEMICALS AREN’T REGULATED IN SKIN CARE PRODUCTS

The beauty industry is highly unregulated, with labels, claims and ingredients lists being very deceptive. Ingredients can be omitted from the list if they fall under “trade secrets” e.g Fragrance, companies don't have to test for safety, and only 11 ingredients have been banned in the US for safety concerns while the Europe has banned over 1000.

THESE CHEMICALS ARE CAUSING ENDOCRINE SYSTEM PROBLEMS

Parabens are endocrine disruptors. Over-consumption can lead to reproductive problems. UV filters added to products can delay puberty!.

UNBORN BABIES EXPOSED TO CHEMICALS

One study showed that exposure to parabens in utero may disrupt the growth of boys. Another study showed prenatal phthalate exposure impairs testicular function in boys.

NATURAL PRODUCTS WORK BETTER

Your body can use and metabolize natural substances. Nature makes things whole and complex, science dissects and separates. Whole substances contain everything they need to be effective.

Natural ingredients are effective, they nourish and maintain.

SIMPLE IS BETTER

Making your own products are simplier. If you have a reaction to something, it is easier to pinpoint the cause. Keeping things simple can reduce your cost and the amount of waste you produce.
