So here's a list of items I should avoid in my skin care products.
- Sodium Lauryl Sulfates, Ammonium Lauryl Sufates, all sulfates (Sulfates are harsh cleansers. Dry the Skin)
- Mineral Oil (Clogs pores and causes acne)
- Petroleum (Clogs pores and causes acne)
- Waxes (paraffin) (Clogs pores and causes acne)
- Dioxane ( A bad derivative of Coconut oil. May cause cancer) What!!!!
- Parabens (Of course, but how many products out there without parabens. But from my personal research Parabens can cause rashes and disrupt endocrine system)
- Alcohols (benzyl alcohol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, SD alcohol and methanol. They cause SKIN DRYNESS)
- Added Frangrances (They cause SKIN DRYNESS and contain harmful chemicals)
Can I really find products without and of the above ingredients at a decent price? I know there are products out there but expensive and you need another job just to fund your beauty products. To be honest, I still use hair products with some of the above ingredients. I will try to find products that don't have at least sulfates, mineral oil, petroleum, or alchols. We'll see.
So far while doing research I found one product that looks good BeeYummy Skinfoods Face Moisturizer. I ordered a sample for under $3. I will do a product review once I try it.
I guess I am going to have to change every skin product I own. I feel a product overhaul coming.
