Skin Care Review Uncovers The Shocking Truth About Mainstream Cosmetics
Natural Skin Care Secrets - Day 3 " Industry-Wide Skin Care Review Reveals The 'Dirty Dozen' Health Risks Of Mainstream Skin Care And Fake Natural Beauty Products On The Market" Today I will reveal the results of an industry-wide skin care review that exposes the "Dirty Dozen Health Risks" of toxins in mainstream skin care products. This report comes from the combined resources of the Natural Skincare Authority and the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics. As we talked about yesterday, absorption of chemicals through the skin is the dirty little secret that the government and chemical corporations don't want you to know. The reason why is because if the general public knew this, the $29 billion skin care, cosmetic and chemical empire would fall apart over night. There is too much at stake for heartless corporations (and government) to ever allow this to happen. However, all is not lost. You, by virtue of being a member of our underground natural skin care community can turn the tables on these corrupt institutions by being an IOC and having the last laugh! In a recent industry-wide skin care review we found that the average adult uses 9 personal care products daily, with 126 unique ingredients that contact and penetrate the skin membrane. Staggering isn't it? But it gets much worse. It turns out 99% of these ingredients have never been tested for safety by any publicly accountable institution, government or otherwise. Here is a summary of the major findings: 14,108 products were assessed - 990 brands of lotion, lip balm, deodorant, sunscreen, moisturizer, toothpaste, shampoo, hair conditioner and many other popular products. Also assessed were the 6,899 ingredients that form these products which shows that only one percent (1%) of products are made from ingredients that have all been assessed for safety. Nearly every product on the market contains one or more ingredients that have never been publicly assessed for safety, and some products contain carcinogens, reproductive toxins, and other chemicals that may pose health risks. Below is the ground-breaking skin care review that exposes the "Dirty Dozen Health Risks" of mainstream skin care, hair care and cosmetic products sold to the general public everyday. (The number on the right is the percentage of products that contain that particular health risk). Skin Care Review by Natural Skincare Authority and Campaign for Safe Cosmetics 1) Ingredient(s) not assessed for safety - (99.7%) 2) Insufficient safety data - (94.3%) 3) Cancer hazard - (36.7%) 4) Cancer - evidence of carcinogenicity - (33.8%) 5) Reproductive/developmental toxicity - (45.9%) 6) Reproductive or developmental harm - (45.7%) 7) Immune system toxicants (allergies, sensitization) - (78.9%) 8) Penetration enhancers - (57.0%) 9) Estrogenic chemicals and other endocrine disruptors - (58.8%) 10) Sunburn/skin cancer risk - (9.3%) 11) Potential for harmful impurities - (75.3%) 12) Unsafe for use in cosmetics - (7.3%) Enough to make your skin crawl isn't it. Well maybe so, but fear not. In the next few days I will reveal an "under-the-radar" method on how you can take control back from the chemical cartel by becoming an expert ingredient detective, almost instantly!
