The European Union has banned over 1,300 different toxic chemicals in body products. Out of this number the United States has only banned 11. It’s common knowledge that what we put in our bodies impacts how we feel, but have we stopped to consider what we’re putting on our bodies every day? Here are 6 ingredients you should avoid when shopping for skincare and makeup: 💙 Parabens – Hormone disruptors that can lead to fertility issues and skin irritation. 💙 Artificial Fragrance – Hides harmful chemicals that can cause allergies and disrupt hormones. 💙 Sulfates – Foaming agents linked to skin and eye irritation. 💙 Phthalates – Preservatives connected to hormone disruption and birth defects. 💙 Oxybenzone – Found in chemical sunscreens, linked to hormone disruption. 💙 Phenoxyethanol – A “clean” alternative to parabens that’s still toxic Which of these ingredients are you most surprised to learn about? Or, if you’ve already made the switch to non-toxic products, what changes have you noticed?
