Zero-tolerance Policy for Toxin Ingredients

Zero-tolerance for Toxin Ingredients

 

Your skin is your largest organ and absorbs 60% of what you put on it.
Part of the problem is a long held misconception that skin is impermeable and is separate from the rest of the body. We now know that is not true. The skin is the largest organ in the human body which absorbs everything, including toxin chemicals. According to the Environmental Working Group, the average woman uses 12 “beauty” products per day, containing about 168 ingredients. That’s a lot of ingredients you’re putting into your body, and if we're not careful many of those could be toxic! Toxin ingredients in cosmetics are a problem for several reasons. When toxin ingredients (such as food flavorings, preservatives and food additives) are ingested through the mouth, the body has a well established channel of elimination (liver, kidneys) to safely deliver these chemicals out of the body. When toxin chemicals  such as (Fragrance (perfume), DMDM Hydantoin, Diazolidinyl Urea, Imidazolidinyl Urea, 1,4-Dioxane, Parabens and many others) are absorbed through the skin, however, they enter the bloodstream immediately and are deposited in tissues and organs. The body can easily become overwhelmed with toxins and has to work extra hard to eliminate them. If the chemical burden become too much, illness ensues.

 

Synthetic fragrance (perfume); an ambiguous term where many toxic chemicals are hidden under, fragrance oils are synthetically produced using petroleum or coal tar, containing phthalates - a plasticizing material used in polyvinyl chloride PVC which can mess with the endocrine system. Unfortunately a lot of chemical cocktails hide under the term “fragrance” which allows the company to not actually list what is in it and are considered “trade secrets“. [According to the Committee on Science & Technology, “Approximately 95% of chemicals used in fragrances are synthetic compounds derived from petroleum.”  What’s more, “Petroleum based chemicals are being found to cause significant attritional effects to the nervous system and immune system after prolonged exposure. Illnesses identified in the medical research include adult and child cancers, numerous neurological disorders, immune system weakening, autoimmune disorders, asthma, allergies, infertility, miscarriage, and child behavior disorders including learning disabilities, mental retardation, hyperactivity and ADD (attention deficit disorders).]

 

Toxin Ingredients are so widespread because they are inexpensive to manufacture, have an incredibly long shelf-life and are easy and  predictable to work with. Unfortunately your  skin and your metabolism are not designed to be doused with chemical cocktails on a regular  basis. Think of all the beauty products that you use every day, add on your personal-care and  household products that you use and or work with. As a result, many health conditions and allergies are either caused or aggravated by synthetics toxin ingredients  in your daily beauty regime. Small children and babies are especially vulnerable to chemical absorption through the skin.
