Why Should I Use Skincare Without Phthalates?

In this 8 part series, we are going to address some of the common toxins used in skincare and cosmetics.

Many beauty and skin care products on the market are full of hidden chemicals. If you want to be healthy and still have good skin, you may be wondering, is it possible?

Yes, just like you can swap out harsh cleaning products and get rid of toxic food, you can change out your skin care.

Under current law, the FDA doesn’t require cosmetics companies to conduct safety assessments on their products. Harmful ingredients can be easily masked under confusing or deceptive titles like “fragrance.” They may even be listed, plain and simple, on the label, but with no messages to inform consumers of their potentially harmful effects.

It’s vital to think about what you’re putting on your skin. Your pores absorb what you put on them—they don’t know any better!

So let’s talk about some toxic chemicals and how to get healthy with our beauty routines!

We will start with Phthalates

Phthalates are a group of chemicals that may be disruptive to the endocrine system. The endocrine system is responsible for hormone production. Such interference can lead to developmental, reproductive, and neurological damage.
The effects of phthalates may be related to their ability to mimic human hormones.

Who says this is a problem?

A study by the University of Maryland reported that exposure to phthalates could cause reproductive abnormalities and decreased production of testosterone in males, as well as decreased male fertility. Other studies show a link between phthalates and premature delivery and endometriosis in women.

Where would you find phthalates?

They’re used to plasticize products, making them more flexible or better able to hold in color and scent. From deodorant to nail polish to scented lip balm, the catch here is that these chemicals can be grouped under and listed as “fragrance.” Companies claim their fragrance formulas as “trade secret,” and thus don’t have to specify on the label which ingredients are included.

Your best bet is to avoid products that list “fragrance” and choose ones that use plant oils and essences to give them the “yum” factor.

Can you read the label?

It is tough to find a product that you can understand the ingredients. There are so many things out there!

We recommend Rain Revri. The first of its kind made with Seed oils, plant extracts, and Seed stem cells. It has the highest natural concentration in the world at 98.7%.
