Natural Makeup Products Can Improve The Look Of Skin

By Haywood Hunter


Natural makeup products are better for a person's skin. Conventional cosmetics tend to look artificial. They cake up, clog pores, and often look and feel heavy and uneven. All natural products compliment a women's natural appearance without adding harsh chemicals and preservatives.

Many store shelves are filled with products that would never sell if women really knew what was in them. Mercury, lead, industrial chemicals and more do not sound like something anyone should be putting on their face or anywhere near their body for that matter.

Recently a study was conducted on women's lipstick. Four hundred different brands were included in this study. The findings showed that most commercial lipstick included a significant amount of lead. According to the United States food and drug administration the lead levels fall into the category of "safe" amounts for human exposure. Many disagree. One mother in particular pointed to a situation involving her young daughter. After using an FDA approved children's play makeup the child experienced an extreme reaction that required immediate medical treatment. The mother indicates that the young girl's face had become swollen beyond recognition at three times its usual size. Safe use? Perhaps not...

The skin is the human body's largest organ. Without it life can not be sustained. It is also absorbent and susceptible to everything in its environment. Now, we can not completely control what is in the air around us, but we certainly have full control of what we put inside and on our bodies. Understanding that what we put on our skin can be absorbed into the bloodstream will make most people think twice about what they may be willingly exposing themselves to.

Just as the human body relies upon nourishment in order to maintain balance and good health, so too does the skin. We have all heard "you are what you eat". The question then becomes "what are we feeding our skin?".

Traditional cosmetics generally contain preservatives, chemical dyes, and oil among other ingredients. For people with chemical sensitivity, acne, eczema and many other conditions this can be a recipe for disaster. Even those without typical skin conditions will frequently experience problems. This makes wearing traditional makeup impossible and certainly not a pleasant experience. In the past, many just did not bother.

Natural makeup products use fewer ingredients and no chemicals. They usually offer a measure of natural SPF. This leaves women looking great, feeling beautiful, and breakout free.
