Women and men spend millions of dollars every year attempting to
improve the quality and health of their skin. They spend time and money
on products and services to refinish the surface of their skin only to
return to habits and routines that continue to damage both their skin
and bodies. Most cosmetic and beauty products contain additives,
preservatives, and chemicals designed to improve appearances at the
cost of health. Not only do conventional cosmetics clog pores and weigh
down skin, they also contain harmful toxins that absorb into the blood
stream and into the body.
Companies
create conventional cosmetics and beauty products using oils and
fillers that weigh down skin and clog the pores. Although some of these
products create the appearance of smooth, even skin, bacteria and dirt
become trapped in the skin by the oils in conventional cosmetics and
create pimples and blemishes. Most men and women then resort to even
more cosmetic use to cover up these skin problems, resulting in an even
greater incidence of clogged pores. Skin absorbs the oils and fillers
in conventional cosmetics resulting in makeup that literally weighs
down the face. Not only does foundation and powder look heavy, it also
feels heavy. This heavy feeling results from not just the skin’s
absorption of the
product, but
also the inability of the skin to breath.
The
heavy binders and fillers of conventional cosmetics also contain
chemical additives that are harmful to the body. Conventional beauty
products such as foundation, blush, eye shadow, and bronzer contain a
myriad of binders, toxins and dyes that absorb into the blood stream. A
build up of such chemicals can produce allergic reactions and increased
sensitivity in some men and women. Some of these allergies and
sensitivities can result in chronic conditions and sustained
sensitivity to conventional dyes, cosmetics and perfumes.
Hypoallergenic products have risen as a result of consumers’ needs to
use products less harmful on the body. Although most of these products
still contain fillers that clog skin, the rise of products for
sensitive skin proves that consumers have reacted poorly to
conventional cosmetics.

dyes, colors, fillers, binders, waxes, or any other ingredient beyond
