Choosing Cosmetics Without Harmful Ingredients

My work as a Certified Clinical Anaplastologist and my obligation to create silicone facial and body prostheses using only materials that are appropriate to sit on the skin, has made me aware of the importance of choosing skin care products and cosmetics that follow the same guidelines. Our skin is our largest organ and it is not impervious to harmful substances. I am a compulsive label reader and I am amazed at how difficult it is to buy body care products without harmful ingredients. It is important to educate oneself. There is some information at the bottom of our Links page. Fortunately there are some good cosmetic lines out there and Sephora has a "clean" section now. We can force the beauty industry to change by choosing where spend. We have the power once we are informed.
