YOU'VE BEEN GREENWASHED
Deceived into falsely believing that a product is healthy. The #1 recommended brand by dermatologists sells products with parabens that disrupt the endocrine system. The National Association of Eczema recommends products with sulfates that destroy the skin barrier. And 'clean skincare' brands aren't so clean when you search their ingredients on EWG.

FDA Requires $23k for 'SPF' on a Label

THE BAD GUYS
WATER
If a product contains water, it needs a full-spectrum preservative to kill off unwanted bacterial growth. Problem is, preservatives kill off the good bacteria too, like in your gut.
NO FULL-SPECTRUM PRESERVATIVES EXIST THAT ARE SAFE
PRESERVATIVES
Preservatives also strip down vital layers of skin. If it's a product that doesn't get washed off, the preservative can seep into your bloodstream, reaking havoc on your endocrine system.
BABY POWDER
It took 130 years for consumers to prove that Johnson & Johnson's baby powder gave them cancer. J&J first started selling baby powder in 1894 and settlement payments are still being negotiated in 2024.
PARABENS
Introduced in 1923 as a cheap, mass-produced preservative. Recently, its links to health concerns have caused it to lose favorability, but when one problem is solved another arises. Cheap alternatives, disguised with different names, have flooded the market preserving ingredients the same way and causing the same damage.
CERAMIDES
The version you get is created in a lab, but it doesn't need to be. Ceramides can be found naturally in jojoba, grape seeds, and many other ingredients we use.
