Have you ever wondered what ingredients are in cosmetics?
What about that deodorant that says “danger: extremely flammable”? After all, you often check what ingredients are in your food.
Go look now.
Though it may be that the ingredients are not even listed on there.
Confused?
Well, one day, I looked at the back of a tube of BB cream and I too was shocked and confused. I found phrases like “titanium dioxide” and “aluminium oxide”, neither of which sound like something you might want to include in your skincare routine. After all, your skin is like a sponge – absorbing everything that your put on it.
So I started looking for non toxic beauty products and I was disappointed to find that very few skincare and makeup brands are actually chemical free. Often, I found that the so-called chemical free makeup was nothing but nice packaging. The ingredients were still very much the same – that is full of chemicals. Not only that, many beauty brands wrap their natural products in plastic. Plastic is not biodegradable, harmful to the environment and to us.
At The Clear Sky, we provide you with no-nonsense information on the ingredients used in cosmetics and give guidance on the best natural non toxic makeup brands to use. Here you will also find an extensive range natural beauty tips for face and body, plus advice on healthy, toxic free living. We try our best to recommend beauty products that have plastic free packaging.
Plastic is not part of natural beauty.
