Does your make up contain these 5 unhealthy toxins? Have a look at your cosmetics for the offenders below.

 

Toxin 1. Parabens (may be listed as Methyl, Propyl, Butyl and Ethyl)

Parabens are chemical elements primarily used as a preservative. Unfortunately they have been known to cause allergic reactions and skin rashes. There are also other possible links to serious health concerns. Rest assured that Nude by Nature takes great care to use naturally-derived alternatives to extend the longevity of our products.

Toxin 2. Lead

Unfortunately some cosmetic houses still use high amounts of lead in their lipstick formulations! When digested, lead cannot be processed by our bodies and can cause serious problems long-term. Rest assured that in Nude by Nature's Mineral Lipsticks you'll only find naturally-derived ingredients like jojoba oil, shea butter and vitamin E (no lead!). Rest assured that Nude by Nature takes great care to use naturally derived alternatives to extend the longevity of our products.

Toxins 3 & 4. Petroleum & PVP/VA Copolymer

Petroleum can clog your pores. This in turn disrupts your body’s natural ability to moisturize its own skin, leading to dryness and chapping. Also watch out for PVP/VA Copolymer; petroleum-derived chemicals used in some cosmetics.


Toxin 5. Carmine

Not necessarily a health concern but is a colour used in cosmetics created from crushed beetles.
