If you wouldn\u2019t eat it, why would you put it on your face? <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A lot of care goes into checking the labels on foods from your local supermarket nowadays, but the same care doesn\u2019t transfer to the things we use on our face. Talk about double standards! That\u2019s right, checking the ingredients in your skincare is just as important as checking what goes into the foods you eat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s important to use natural ingredients<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The main reason why you should be ditching your poisonous skincare items and opting for better organic and natural products is because you\u2019ll literally be switching to a much healthier lifestyle. Typical skincare products contain so many harmful ingredients in the form of toxic chemicals that reportedly have damaging effects on our bodies, such as: hormonal imbalances, development of tumors, and many more.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, organic and clean products contain ingredients that are actually super healthy for us, like lots of good antioxidants that do wonders for you skin<\/a>. These ingredients can not only prevent any harmful effects that other products might cause, but they can even reverse the damage done by<\/span>\u00a0other free radicals <\/a><\/span>that you come into contact with.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What makes a skincare product \u201cclean\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A clean beauty product is considered simply a product that does not contain any of the known toxic skincare ingredients that can be extremely detrimental to our health. You might think that you don’t use any products that don’t fall under clean beauty, but until you check the label, there’s no way to know for sure. Since the cosmetic industry has very low set rules and regulations, many companies can use this to their advantage and describe their products in ways that would lead consumers (you) to believe that they are natural and good for you. Unfortunately, until you check the ingredient list there is no way of knowing for sure.<\/span><\/p>\n
