As you may have heard, your skin is the largest organ in your body. So you wouldn’t want to put anything on your face that you wouldn’t want to put into your body.
If you’re applying potentially toxic chemicals every day, they get absorbed into your body and may lead to acne, irritation, redness, sensitivity, or even health issues like skin cancer, nervous system issues, reproductive issues, and more.
What is acne?
Acne is an inflammatory skin condition characterized by red pimples on the skin, especially on the face. It occurs when your hair follicles clogged with oil and dead skin cells. The primary cause is the excess activity of male hormones, like testosterone, that present in both men and women. The higher level of male hormones stimulates the growth of skin cells and the production of sebum. When the pores are plugged with dirt and dead skin cells, it creates a perfect environment for bacteria to grow, causing an inflammation that leads to acne.
What is clean beauty?
Clean beauty is still open to interpretation, so it’s hard to settle on one definition. Essentially, clean beauty means that you can use a product without risking your own health. The term ‘clean’ refers to products that are mindfully created and formulated only with safe, non-toxic ingredients (natural and/or synthetic). Unlike natural and organic beauty, clean beauty doesn’t shy away from synthetic or lab-created ingredients.
