The dangers of modern skin care are under recognized. Each day millions of people are putting stuff on their skin that is so toxic, it has disposal regulations keeping it out of landfills. Yet the government has absolutely no regulation on what is put into skin care, where it comes from, or even if all the ingredients are placed on the label.

It is extremely vital to look for plant based completely natural and organically certified products because of this. These organic food products are the same ones that have passed either local or federal regulations. So if you would not eat it why are you applying it directly to the largest organ in the body? Even if they are ingested, organic skin care products have to be guaranteed for safety.

Think about what you are putting onto your skin

Right now there is a lot of talk about organic foods and clothing in the media and on people's minds. Look anywhere and you can see companies trying to get in on the bandwagon. Grocery stores across the nation are sporting organic foods sections. Some even offer a couple of selections of organic skin care products such as bar soap and toothpaste.

Chain stores are not where you should attempt to get products claiming to be natural. They are not necessarily natural if they contain things such as fruit extracts. It is like calling toxic waste healthy just because you added a carrot and said it was stew. Are you going to eat that? Are you going to give it to a baby? Are you going to do your laundry in it? What about animals? Death dealing toxins are put on the skin daily by unknowing millions.

Modern Skin Care has the dangers exposed

For the most part, people pay no attention to what they put onto their skin other than if it smells nice or they like how the package looks. Unknowingly, many people are overloading one of the most valuable parts of their body with noxious chemicals that cause cancer, brain damage, and other major health concerns such as aging, hair loss, impotency, and skin disorders.

However, without knowing it many are putting gasoline by products, fish scales, road kill, dead animals (and their rendered parts, even blood), beetles, rust, mercury, lead aluminum, uranium, toxic metals, and left over chemicals from processing plants onto their skin. Other death dealing and cancer causing, skin drying and killing ingredients are: Alcohol, Formaldehyde, Padimate-O, Alpha Hydroxy Acid, Petrolatum, Propane, Animal Fat (Tallow), Butane, Lye, Dioxins, Fluorocarbons, Mineral Oil, Methyl, propyl, butyl, and ethyl paraben, Sodium Laureth Sulphate, and the list goes on.

Make-up companies are allowed to put the majority of these into the items they sell and are not required to list them anywhere on the labelling.

Organic is the solution

People can undo the damage through the use or certified organic products on their skin. The skin is fed by these products. Simply replacing skin care products with organic skin care can reduce the amount of environmental toxin that go into the body. Imagine undoing the damage caused by these incredibly toxic chemicals. Imagine skin care products not based on petroleum (gasoline) so you don't burn as quickly. Can you imagine the skin breathing? Fewer birth defects and reproductive health issues are a step closer as a result.

For the longest time skin was not considered an organ. That it is one of the largest organs of the body is now well known. Not only does it protect from disease but it regulates moisture and body temperature as well. Not only does it breathe but it gets rid of wastes and toxins in the body as well as taking in information and nutrients from surroundings. This covering is semi-permeable and keeps us healthy.

You will feed the skin by using organically certified skin care products that do not contain toxins. Feeding the skin with organic products will reverse the growth of cancer cells, renew the skin's elasticity, stop aging and get rid of the dead weight of chemical skin care products so the skin can breathe again.
