Deconstructing Skincare
in Educational/by SaraHello and thank you for joining me, Sara Redmon, beauty herbalist & co-owner of Materia Media Spa for this {first,second,third..} video in my series ‘Deconstructing Skincare.’ I will be guiding you through information about cosmetics and exposing some simple truths that you won’t find on the label.
Parabens
in Educational/by SaraMost of us have seen this word on the front of a shampoo, facial cleanser, moisturizer, etc. but what exactly do we know about them?
Parabens are used, since the 1920’s, as synthetic preservatives in cosmetics, food and body care products. Designed to decrease the risk of mold and bacterial growth in products with high water content.
Fragrance
in Educational/by SaraThe topic we are discussing today is the mysterious ingredient, fragrance. We all want our products and ourselves to smell nice but at what cost? This simple word listed on the ingredient label can contain over 100 undisclosed, toxic ingredients and most people have no clue.
Preservatives
in Educational/by SaraToday we are going to discuss preservatives. I see a lot of products that my clients bring in and they will have some beautiful natural ingredients, antioxidants, extracts and I get so excited until I reach the long list of preservatives that I feel aren’t necessary.
Welcome to the Natural Side of Skincare
in Educational/by SaraIn my previous videos, I have cautioned you regarding certain synthetic ingredients that could be lurking in your products. I have stressed why you need to be aware of them and how important it is to read the ingredient labels before you make a purchase.
