The Truth About Parabens

Advertorial

Ever since my parents became health nuts 10 years ago, we became very particular about what we use and consume. My dad is quite an extremist in this, but I practice such culture moderately.

However, I do agree that since our skin is the largest organ, I take special care in choosing products for the skin.

I will inspect the ingredient label on skincare. In food, the no-nos are trans fat, preservatives and sugar. It is hard to avoid but increasingly more foods have labels indicating free of the above.

Even so, you may need to look closer, as there may be substitutes, like aspartame for sugars, which is then probably worse being artificial sugar.

In skincare, the no-nos when I shop are talc, sodium laureth sulphate and paraben.

Paraben, a chemical used as a preservative in most skincare is cancer causing. Our skin will be absorbing toxic if we use for a long period of body and face moisturizers containing paraben.
