How To Know If Skin Care Products Will Work
The platform for skin care products is growing daily
. In our struggle to be young and beautiful, we have also become victims to marketing and savvy advertisers. Oddly enough, if you start reading labels on the back of skin care products, most of them are the same.
So you decide to look for natural ingredients. Once again, you are drawn to the clever packaging and the use of natural products like coconut, avocado, Vitamin E or collagen. Just seeing these buzz words on the package gives you comfort because you feel you are getting a safe and natural product.
But when you flip the bottle over and check the label, you will see all those other ingredients again. Paraben, mineral oil, petroleum. The simple truth is, products can contain these components to use as preservatives, but still be called a natural product, as long as they contain at least 1% of natural ingredients. The other 99%, well, it can be, and often is, completely unnatural.
However, there are ingredients that you can look for that will in fact, improve your skin. To start with, look for an expiration date on the bottle. Natural products that don't rely heavily on preservatives will often have an expiry date, or a recommended shelf life after its been opened.
Some natural ingredients you can search for in a beauty product that will nourish and supplement your skin include jojoba oil, coenzyme Q10, manuka honey and sea kelp to name a few. Any ingredient naturally extracted from plants, herbs or the earth itself are more likely to benefit your skin, allowing it to breath, without clogging pores. Plus, non-chemical ingredients are better absorbed by your skin and disposed of by the body.
While many cosmetic applications will include additives and preservatives, look for natural ingredients that are high up on the label. Items are listed by quantity, from most to least, so you should see the natural ingredients listed before synthetic preservatives. That way, you know you're getting a product that actually utilizes the natural ingredient for the care of skin, and not just marketing.
