Starting January 1, 2008 state law banning mercury in all the masks, eye liners and skin-lightening creams came into force in Minnesota.
This courageous decision to ban mercury in makeup done the great state of Minnesota the first state in the nation to ban intentionally added mercury in cosmetics and sets a higher standard than the federal government regulation of cosmetic ingredients. "Mercury cause neurological damage to people even in tiny quantities, "said Sen. John Marty, the Democrat who sponsored the ban." All sources of mercury adds to it. We wanted to ensure was not there. "
So your first questions are likely. . .
Why is not mercury already banned in cosmetics? Well, a long story, but the version is that the U.S. FDA banned very, very, very few chemicals in cosmetics. Mercury is not one of them. In fact, Europe, Korea and Japan have banned many chemicals still common in cosmetics in the United States.
I do not see mercury on my mascara ingredient label. Does this mean that is mercury? The name of the actual ingredient containing mercury called thimerosal. It is an organic compound containing mercury used as preservative and antifungal agents since 1920. Thimerosal has been banned in the world but not of the States United States (except Minnesota).
What now? Ladies, the bottom line, in my opinion is not really about mercury, but is the general lack of regulation in the United States for the safety of cosmetic ingredients. So what is a girl to do? Most women are not products chemicals in their free time to continue the international regulation of cosmetic ingredients to see whether products are safe. Instead, I suggest that companies research that focuses on safety and transparency regarding the ingredients they use.

The Ugly Truth commercial cosmetics
Chemicals cosmeticsI that most of us take for granted that the popular cosmetics, soaps, lotions and hair products to purchase our local events, the pharmacies and department stores are safe. Why consumers could buy and use a product in our skin, lips, eyes and hair all on whether they are harmful? This was not even a question I never asked because I was so confident in my products and well known companies that produce them. First, it began cosmetics to investigate when I decided to create my own cosmetic company. When I started researching the ingredients in my makeup and shower products such as soap and the shampoo I was surprised to discover that most of them do not contain one or two, but very hard to pronounce, dangerous synthetic chemicals.
Over 90% of all ingredients in commercially available cosmetics are of synthetic origin and directly linked to serious health risks such as cancer, infertility, kidney and liver and severe skin problems. Environmental Working Group report "Skin Deep" shows that nearly 90 percent more 10,000 ingredients used in personal care products have not been evaluated by government regulators. At the same time, 20,000 of various cosmetic products available on the market that are sold to the United States, over 80% of products surveyed contained one or more ingredients have caused documented adverse reactions in humans and animals in the past.
The FDA has banned or restricted just nine ingredients in the history of personal care products for 67 years (FDA 2000). On 6 September 1997 Boston Globe reported that "the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, has identified more than 125 cosmetic ingredients suspected as the cause cancer and others that can cause birth defects. ! Many harmful chemicals are still widely used in cosmetic products has been the United States during long prohibited
the rest of the world. Unfortunately, no U.S. regulatory gives leeway to select amazing cosmetic companies, manufacturing and selling products loaded with questionable ingredients, leaving consumers will ultimately suffer the consequences. Most large companies in the cosmetics industry and personal care will tell you not to worry. They agree that there are many chemical products in their products, but they say the numbers are small and not affect you. A first glance, this seems reasonable. Unfortunately, it is a sugar coating relations in the public's response and not to identify the real problem athand. Medical science has shown that humans exposed to over time small amounts of harmful chemicals, in fact, suffer the consequences.
Medical science has shown that even thin plate we stick to the arm or the stomach with very small amounts of chemicals can provide pharmaceutical chemicals with a high efficiency in the bloodstream, totally changing the body chemistry. Transdermal patches containing small traces of nicotine can deliver chemicals directly to the blood for the vagaries of snuff. The new alternative to the pill "is a patch that contains levels very low hormones and still has a chance to stop a woman from getting pregnant.
The real motivation behind the cosmetics industry disconcern is money and profit. Chemical products, dyes and fees listed below are found in almost all cosmetics, because it can do so cheap and have a long useful life. If you were to stop using these chemicals to the health of the alternatives that would be seriously reduced their profit margins to provide chemical-free beauty. In this battle will replace its benefits for health care. In response to consumers should stop using their products.
Large companies in the personal care industry are motivated to be interested in its profits because the U.S. government and especially the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not regulate or require the federal test, before an impartial care cosmetic or personal ", was released. The FDA stopped the cosmetics factory to test their own products. In essence, consumers are trading cosmetics Guinea Pig Industry. Not surprisingly, almost none of them need to test on animals! Consumers Guinea Pig is now the choices!
Today, only cosmetic companies in North America generate over 30 billion dollars in sales each year. Advertising by celebrities, magazines and television commercials educated, best hope for younger skin, hair, handsome features and attractive. He did not say how long the list of chemicals from this promise. Since the industry is not regulated, many cosmetic companies do not bother to list the ingredients of their products.
It is worrying then, in the light of all the information we know about chemicals in products to spread on our skin every day, who are more informed and outraged the consequences of the introduction of these chemicals in our body continuously. Little is known about the long-term effects of chemicals petroleum and synthetic products that are rubbed into the skin every day in the form of cosmetics, lotions, shampoos, etc. At this stage, scientists and researchers know that these chemicals pose a threat to human health and fertility and have found in our body and milk. Chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products are associated with birth defects, hormonal disorders and fertility reduced not to mention the most common cosmetic damage, such as skin rashes, mild to severe acne and eczema. Many people use cosmetics and lotions to cure skin problems. Ironically, the products they use, and with the hope of a cure products are the same that are causing the problem!
Even after reading all this I am sure you are still thinking "I doubt that the products we use every day are chemicals that are talking about." I thought the same thing until I looked to find a few different sources, such as the Working Group on Environment. I've used these research groups and the majority of my cosmetics do not list the ingredients anywhere on the container. I soon discovered that some of my (former) favorite cosmetic manufacturers are classified as worst levels of toxins in your cosmetics.
For more details on the chemicals of interest, please visit the website of the Working Group Environmental – click here. Please keep in mind, the Working Group is to test cosmetic products for all companies in this study. If you are currently using products are not known for its cosmetic ingredients list.If you think that only start buying cosmetics that say "organic", "natural" "Hypoallergenic" or "herbs" to prevent these hazardous chemicals please beware. Products with these labels often still contain these dangerous chemicals, and synthetic minerals, because there is no law or regulation that companies label their products are required to follow. Read ingredients.
The typical adult uses nine cosmetic and personal care products per day with a daily average load of about 126 chemicals. Most these chemicals (example above) are absorbed by the body through the skin. Others are in the lipstick and lip balm will really like mouth from eating, drinking or wetting the lips.
cosmetics companies use synthetic loads in their products to reduce costs and given the profit margin high as possible. Cents are the costs that you go to your local drug or department store to buy their products. What you pay is an image of beauty perpetuated in the ads. Them generally do not pay for quality with the most commercial brands of cosmetics.
What can you do to save his skin and body exposure to substances chemical harmless life? Read, read the labels, research products without the ingredient list. There are natural alternatives that are best for you and your skin. Cosmetics Afterglow offers a beautiful, 100% safe cosmetic treatment options.
