Why Aren’t You Using Holistic Skin Care Products?

What if I told you that holistic skin care products are much more effective than chemical based products. Many people simply do not believe that natural products are effective at reducing the signs of aging.

Natural products are safer for your skin and more effective as well. There are many different chemicals used in creams and lotions these days that should not be put on your skin.

As you are probably aware, there is a shift around the world to a greener living. This includes the food we eat, the vehicles we drive, the energy we use and now the products we apply to our skin.

Here Are Some Harmful Ingredients You Should Avoid

Parabens: These preservatives are added to skin care products to prolong the shelf life. This includes methyl, butyl, ethyl and propyl paraben. These ingredients can cause skin rashes and allergic reactions. In addition, studies indicate that parabens could also cause cancer.

Triclosan: Hard to believe that a chemical used in weed killer is also found in some skin care products. Studies indicate that Triclosan may contribute to creating strains of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Clearly, something you should be avoiding.

Phenol Carbolic Acid: This substance can cause circulatory and respiratory problems. It is used in many different creams and lotions.

These ingredients that I have just covered here will not be found in holistic skin care products.

Why do some cosmetic companies continue to use these types of ingredients? Many people still believe that these chemicals are not harmful to us. In addition, chemical ingredients are cheaper to manufacture than natural ingredients.

Ingredients Used in the Best Holistic Skin Care Products

One of the main culprits in causing our skin to age is free radicals. Free radicals are caused by oxidation. Normally, a small amount of free radicals is ok; however, they can get out of control and cause a lot of damage to our skin cells.

Coenzyme Q10: Coenzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant that penetrates deep into the layers of the skin and destroys the free radicals.  This substance is found in the best holistic skin care products available.

Now, another cause of aging skin is due to the loss of collagen and elastin, which are two vital skin proteins needed for healthy skin.

Cynergy TK:  This substance is a major breakthrough in the holistic skin care industry. It is rich in functional keratin, which is a protein that is very similar to our own skin proteins. It helps to stimulate the re-production of collagen and elastin.

A holistic skin care product that contains both Coenzyme Q10 and Cynergy TK is one that will provide noticeable results in reducing the signs of aging.
