Gasoline being used to make "all natural" face cream?
I have some breaking news to share with you, today. It may sound a little grim, at first. Don't worry, I offer a solution at the end of this email that you don't want to miss. So make sure you read the whole thing.
On March 14th, the Organic Consumers Association (OCA) released a study showing that many "organic" and "natural" beauty care products contain 1,4-Dioxane. The manufacturers don't even list this carcinogenic contaminant on the labels. Independent researchers only discovered it when a reputable third-party lab performed its own tests on behalf of the OCA.
I'll share with you some of the brand names to watch out for in just a minute. First, I'd like to say...
The Word "Organic" is Becoming A Very Loose Term These Days
Why would "natural" beauty care products use these cancer-causing ingredients?
Simple answer: Most beauty-care products include harsh ingredients that damage your skin. By using Ethylene Oxide (a petro-chemical) they can remove the abrasiveness -- leaving behind the deadly 1,4-Dioxane as a by-product.
1,4-Dioxane doesn't just cause cancer. According to the California Environmental Protection Agency it can seriously damage your kidneys, lungs and nervous system.
It's hardly what you'd expect to find in organic and natural beauty products. Some of the brand names you may recognize, including: JASON Pure Natural & Organic, Giovanni Organic Cosmetics, Kiss My Face, Nature's Gate Organics. I'll give you a link to the full report at the end of this email.
Just Imagine What NON-Organic Cosmetics Contain...
We are seeing the same situation in the beauty "care" industry as we've seen with food products. If you're at all health-conscious, you realize that the only way to ensure a good meal these days is to make it from scratch.
So why aren't people using the same approach for beauty care products?
Are we Brainwashed to Think Beauty Only Comes From a Bottle?
Why have cleansers, shampoos and moisturizers been made so complicated, that the only way we think we can get our daily dose is out of a bottle?
Most beauty care products -- even the ones using 100% organic ingredients — are not necessarily natural for your skin.
Alcohol, for example, is often used — this is a drying agent, plain and simple. Why is it there? It's used to preserve the ingredients from spoilage. Otherwise, how could you have these "natural" ingredients sitting in moisture?
Refined oils, emulsifiers and harsh cleansing agents are other common ingredients. They all damage your skin and hair in the name of "beauty."
Sure, they provide some short-term results. Yet who hasn't experienced those dry winter months where you are constantly whipping out the moisturizer to keep the skin on your hands from cracking?
Vice versa, if you're the oily type, you know what it's like to be constantly fighting blemishes and acne. Ironically, the same cream you use to get rid of it is actually congesting your pores and making it worse. Your skin is also meant to detoxify. But it can't do so if you are plastering yourself with grease.
In order to stop natural ingredients from spoiling, they must be refined, made into artificial counterparts or mixed with preservatives. That's just how it is.
That's how you get ketchup to last for months, without going bad.
You see, it's already bad.
As With Food So With Beauty Care
Same goes for beauty care products. Anything natural wouldn't do well being left in a warm bathroom for a month.
Which brings up the question... if you're not into feeding your mouth processed food, why are you feeding your skin processed food? Your skin absorbs whatever you apply. All that goop people put on their skin gets fed directly into their bloodstream, nervous system, joint tissue, vital organs... their brains.
That's why it's so important to learn how to make your own beauty care formulas. It's not that hard. You don't need all those ingredients you can't pronounce from the fine print on the labels.
You can actually make all your own beauty care products, in minutes, mixing together fresh base oils, essential oils, spices, herbs and other food products. Fresh, is the key word here.
How to Experience Beauty Naturally and Effortlessly
In a few days I'm going to send you the link to a new website by a natural health doctor in California. She specializes in homemade natural care products. She has Ayurvedic recipes dating back 3,000 years, from ancient India’s storehouse of Ayurvedic wisdom.
The site's not quite ready, so I can't give you the link right now. When it does go up, however, I'll let you know. You'll immediately be able to go over and read an article by this Ayurvedic expert explaining the little known link between health and beauty. Then, you can opt-in, for free, to receive an Anti-Aging Report that reveals Ayurvedic methods to naturally avoid premature aging.
What's more...
You'll be instantly "enrolled" (again at no charge) in a TWO-week ecourse on how to discover your own natural state of beauty from an Ayurvedic standpoint. It'll include audiovisual presentations and two live teleseminars with the doctor.
All coming to you very soon. So stay tuned for future emails about Ayurvedic beauty secrets.
All the best,
