I mean, why use products filled with substances that have been linked to cancer? All those parabens and sulfates have been proven dangerous and frankly, I don't feel the need to add more toxins to my body.
I'm guessing you feel the same way and are trying to figure out what to look for in all natural skin care.
A few months ago, I was in the same position as you and started researching good-for-you products and I came up with some winners.
So, here's what I found first, all natural skin care lines feature plant based substances to moisturize your skin and prevent wrinkles. That made sense to me and I started learning more.
I also learned antioxidants are key in preventing premature aging. If you don't know, antioxidants fight free radicals that zip around in your environment and body and cause cell irregularities which can lead to cancer.
Plus, antioxidants keep your skin looking younger longer so you have fewer wrinkles and sagging skin.
You can find antioxidants in your skin care products by looking for ingredients like natural vitamin e, phytessence wakame-a Japanese sea kelp used for centuries by the Japanese--active manuka honey and CoEnzyme Q10.
You can also up your antioxidant quotient by eating more berries and leafy greens on a regular basis.
Natural moisturizers to look for include shea butter, jojoba oil and pulling double duty from the antioxidant list, active manuka honey and phytessence wakame.
Your skin care should boost the health of your skin from the inside by slowing down the aging process whenever possible.
Look for ingredients that help your body boost it's collagen production--collagen is the "cushion" between your bone structure and your outer layer of skin. Phytessence wakame strengthens your collagen fibers and counteracts an aging enzyme that breaks down your skin cells. And a special microscopic formula of CoEnzyme Q10 called Nano-Lipo-belle H EQ10 helps to wipe out free radicals up to seven layers deep!
It can take a little more effort to discover an all natural skin care line but once you know what to look for and what to avoid, you'll be able to differentiate between a quality product and one that's just using "natural" as a marketing ploy.
