Don't Put Toxins/Carcinogens on Your Skin


Your skin is the largest organ you have and as such is a huge conduit for bringing toxins into your body. Yet daily, you probably apply 12 or more cosmetics to your body which may contain ingredients that are absorbed through your skin and transferred to your internal systems – nervous, endocrine, immune and digestive system. Contained within these everyday products may lurk dozens of health hazards that not only endanger your well being.

Be careful with the cosmetics made with harmful ingredients. How do you know the product is contains harmful ingredients? What you need to do is just reading carefully the ingredients at the back of your products. You need to start to exclude any cosmetic products which contain harmful ingredients below:

·         Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA)
·         Coal tar dyes (known as D&C or FD&C colors)
·         Formaldehyde
·         Heavy metal (mercury, lead, chromium and so on)
