Did you know that any chemicals you put on your skin can be absorbed into your body? The frightening truth is that most skin care products contain caustic chemicals, harsh synthetics, and unhealthy oils. This includes parabens, propylene glycol, synthetic colors & fragrances, and mineral oil, to name a few.

Furthermore, many of the registered chemicals used in body care products are not only toxic; they are also considered endocrine disruptors which means they have the ability to negatively affect our hormonal balance.

Reasons to Avoid Toxic Ingredients in Skin Care Products

• They can be absorbed into the body and cause toxicity
• Chemicals only create the illusion of healthy skin
• Toxic chemicals and colors can cause skin irritations
• Synthetic oils can prevent the skin from absorbing healthy nutrients
• Many chemicals are petroleum based and carcinogenic
• Xenoestrogens, such as parabens, can disrupt hormonal balance
• Not all chemicals have been tested for safe use on humans

The skin is a porous membrane that has the ability to absorb chemicals that it comes in contact with. Transdermal toxicity is beginning to gain recognition to the point that the Governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, has signed a bill SB 1379 that would create a state bio-monitoring program.

The Governor stated: “There are literally thousands of chemicals being used in our everyday products in the United States in cleaning supplies, pesticides, cosmetics, and more. It’s important to know more about how those chemicals are building up in our bodies or how they may be affecting our health.”

Chemicals and Xenoestrogens

Many of the chemicals used in body care products are not only toxic, they are also known as xenoestrogens.  Xeno literally means foreign; therefore, xenoestrogens means foreign estrogens.

There are approximately 100,000 registered chemicals for use in the United States and many of them have negative hormonal effects in addition to being toxic.  These substances can increase the estrogen load in the body over time, and are difficult to detoxify through the liver and compound symptoms of estrogen dominance.
