At Real Style Network beauty, we try a lot of different products. Like most people, we assume that our beauty products are safe to use. Why else would they sell them for us to use, right? After reading this beauty news story, we are thinking a little harder about the beauty, makeup and skin care products we use every day.
The report on beauty products shows that while known dangerous ingredients are banned in beauty products, there are still some that are making it in. Apparently only 13 per cent of beauty ingredients have been tested. With over 80,000 ingredients used, that leaves a lot of unknown territory.
So how can you keep yourself safe? Fortunately there are also tips to go along with the scary idea of using unknown ingredients on your body.
The tips to finding safe beauty products are: use less products (keeping exposure to a minimum), read the label on everything, use fragrance-free products, and try not to use products that have higher risks that may have more dangerous ingredients. These higher risk products are dark hair dye, nail polish, and powders.
We aren’t going to stop using these beauty products, but trying to keep yourself aware of what you are using is always wise. You wouldn’t eat food without knowing it was safe, so don’t use questionable beauty products either.
