Commercial products are typically loaded with preservatives to allow them to remain fresh during the long span between the time of manufacture and the time the customer finishes using it. Although the preservatives do extend the longevity of the products but preservatives themselves are unhealthy. Many cause or promote skin problems and some are even reported to be linked to cancer.
It is very important to use preservative-free products.
One of the many advantages to using handcrafted natural products is that you can eliminate the use of harmful preservatives. Instead, you can adapt natural methods of preserving and/or using your products.
Chemical preservatives are generally used because they are much cheaper than and extend the shelf life of the product.
Eating fresh natural produce is much better for you than eating denatured long shelf life food!! Well the same applies to your skin care products. Safe non – toxic fresh skin care products are much better for your health than synthetic, chemical based products!!
Become a savvy label reader will not only help you to avoid products that are misleading or filled with harmful ingredients, but it will also help you to more thoroughly enjoy the products that you use.
When shopping for products locally, get into the habit of carefully reading product labels before and after purchase. When shopping online, be sure to read all product information. If any information is missing about a product, contact the company to ask questions. This not only will help you, but it will help the company realize that he may need to elaborate on his Web site and product descriptions.
