There are two roads to beauty: the cosmetic way and the natural way. More and more people are realizing the high cost of beauty the cosmetic way; the highest price being slow death. It is because many cosmetics contain toxic ingredients.
1. One of the hair straightening ingredients is formaldehyde, a carcinogen.
2. Shampoos and conditioners contain sulfates and preservatives like parabens, both potential hormone disrupters.
3. Eye shadow contents may include mercury, a neurotoxin, coal tar, a carcinogen, and 1,4-dioxane, which is linked to cancer.
4. Moisturizers may also contain parabens, while sunscreens contain oxybenzene, a hormone disrupter.
5. Your favorite lipstick may be contaminated with lead, a neurotoxin, as well as BHA, a potential carcinogen.
6. Skin whiteners are among the early cosmetics known to to contain mercury.
Natural is beautiful. But if you can't help it, why not go for herbal shampoos, activated carbon, virgin coconut oil, Bixa or anatto-based colors? There are do-it-yourself preparations, and stores specializing in organic products that can assist you.
