One of the biggest movements in cosmetics and skincare is clean beauty- products free of harmful or toxic ingredients. The tricky part for today’s beauty client comes when trying to decipher and navigate those products. Many companies use marketing terms like “eco”, “natural”, and “organic” to make their products appear ‘clean’, but those terms are not clearly defined. There are plenty of naturally occurring ingredients that may still pose a risk to your health. Even a label marked “unscented” can potentially contain harmful synthetic fragrances.

With a priority on safety, clean beauty products break away from the traditional and instead are formulated without risky ingredients that may act as carcinogens, irritants, or hormone disruptors. A simple google search of ‘harmful ingredients in beauty’ will educate you with a glossary of ‘bad’ ingredients to avoid. Next step is to seek out brands that are transparent about their ingredients and safety testing, but also implement processes that are socially conscious and responsible.
