The Future of Skincare!!
Paraben free products are the future of the skin care industry. At least that will be the case with responsible manufacturers like Dr Gram Inc.
Now I know you are asking yourself why I should bother to pick a product that is paraben free or not. Parabens have been linked to different types of cancer because they mimic the hormone we all have estrogen and too much estrogen is like anything else it can cause issues. For example if you eat five cheese burgers three times a day then this type of diet has been associated with weight gain. The same problems can arise with a hormone imbalance which can lead to multiple health risk. Why take the chance if you don’t need to!
Now let’s talk about how often you use a facial moisturizer? I am sure that a larger percent of the women said that they use one everyday compared to men. Men need to get on the bus and realize that a daily moisturizer is vital to keeping your skin looking and feeling young.
Would you use a chemical on your face daily that could be linked to cancer? Because if you are using a facial moisturizer that is manufactured with parabens that is exactly the risk you are taking.
Most companies use parabens because they are synthetic “cheap” preservatives. The reason companies do this is because they are saving money to put a product on the market but at what risk? Just to make a little extra money for themselves? To save the customer money? It is not worth the risk.
Unfortunately parabens are the most commonly used synthetic preservatives for skin care products. They ensure a longer shelf life by inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria, fungus, yeast and mold in beauty products.
Now to use a facial moisturizer once or twice with parabens in it may not cause health risk but most of us will use the same moisturizer or skin care product every day, several days a week, for months or years. This is where the health risk comes in to play. Exposure to a harmful chemical on a daily basis will increase your risk. Plus we use dozens of personal care products daily, not just one.
Using one product on one day may be small, but the fact is that we use numerous beauty products a day for extended periods of time. As a result, scientists are finding chemicals such as parabens will accumulate in our bodies. There is a link between parabens and breast cancer and more research is needed but again why take the risk when there are better, safer products on the market that are paraben free.
Are there safe alternatives available and skincare lines that use these safe alternatives?
The answer is YES!
SKIN1 by Dr.Gram. Dr Gram and his skincare regimens are paraben free, sulfate free, and cruelty free.
We know safe alternatives do exist and are already being used by some cosmetic companies. The notion of “safe” or “acceptable” levels of hazardous chemicals in our cosmetic products should only be tolerated when we cannot find alternatives.
Safe Ingredients Replace Parabens
Many paraben free facial moisturizers contain grapefruit seed extract and Vitamin E to replace the chemicals. In SKIN1 we use essential oils like cinnamon, eucalyptus, lavender, lemon, and tea tree are being distilled and turned into natural preservatives.
Paraben free products are the future of skincare. Skincare companies will be forced by health conscious consumers to take the natural and healthy approach in manufacturing their products.
It’s a trend that’s just the beginning and will change the way skincare and other products are manufactured. If you’re not using paraben free facial moisturizers now; you probably will be in the future. But the “future” should be now. Start today using paraben free skincare products by Dr Gram.
