We all like to indulge our senses, including our noses! But let’s be honest: would any of you spray perfume all over your face? Definitely not! Many skin care products on the market are laden with synthetic fragrances. But did you know that those perfumed products often contain harmful ingredients that can cause damage to our skin, our health? What are these harmful ingredients in skincare and makeup?
Here’s a list of potential serious side effects of fragrance:
Headaches, eczema, asthma, skin rashes, hormone imbalance and thyroid disruptions. Often called endocrine disruptors, these compounds can disrupt the body’s hormonal balance and in some cases may cause cancer, tumors, birth defects, and other disorders.
The term “fragrance” comprises of over 3,000 chemicals according to the IRFA. When the single word “fragrance” is listed in your favorite cosmetics or lotions, not to mention a host of other household products, that single word could mean multiple combinations of many toxic compounds, not just one ingredient. One study found that products with “fragrance” listed in the ingredients can contain between 50 and 300 ADDITIONAL chemicals! Between facial cleansers, toners, serums, and moisturizers, this could mean anywhere from 200 to 1200 separate chemicals applied to your skin, twice a day!
Cosmetics companies do not have to list every ingredient under “fragrance“ as this is considered a proprietary company secret. While most of us are used to fragrances, the fact that the ingredients are not listed should cause us plenty of concern.
Synthetic fragrances are widely used in commercial products to mask the scent of cheap ingredients found in many skin care and anti-aging creams, lotions, body care, grooming items, sunscreen and makeup products lining the shelves of drugstores, department and cosmetic stores. Avoid these harmful cosmetic, skincare and sunscreen ingredients by choosing healthy, safe alternatives, formulated without these additives.
