Did you know that there are dangerous chemicals in your cosmetics?
I have been saying this for years and now a study shows there are dangerous chemicals in cosmetics that you wear daily! Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are chemicals man by man. Makeup companies have not been listing this in the ingredients on the label. Researchers have found this chemical in 231 products in the US and Canada. PFAS chemicals are used in all sorts of products: Nonstick cookware, infection-resistant surgical gowns and drapes, cell phones, semi-conductors, commercial aircraft and low-emissions vehicles to make carpeting, furniture, and much more. PFAS are most added to cosemtics that are waterproof , long-lasting, liquid, eye and lip products. These chemicals can lead to health issues, such as cancer, thyroid issues, reproductive issues, just to name a few.
Embrace the beauty within and adding chemicals to your body!
You are beautiful in your own skin, which can be healthy if you eat well-balanced meals, drink plenty of water, exercise, use witch hazel and other natural products!
