Worldwide there is a groundswell of women looking to find more natural skin care products. Millions of women are now searching out the best all natural skin care products, and for good reason.

Because there is a growing realization amongst consumers that our skin care products as well as our cosmetics and many personal and beauty products contain potentially harmful ingredients.

A quick example, a recent study found lead in over 50% of big brand lipsticks tested.

And although it’s really nice to look better or smell nicer, no one wants to do that at the risk of their health. I mean who wants to be putting lead on their lips?

As this is becoming more well known skin care manufacturers are recognizing this trend towards natural skin care and anti aging products and natural cosmetics, soaps and much much more. The are recognizing it and looking to enter the market.

Its no coincidence that L’Oreal has recently bought The Body Shop, a huge seller of all natural personal products.

So back to skin care. Firstly lets ask ourselves what all natural means. First thing to note is that there is no formal definition of all natural when it comes to skin care products, or cosmetics or other products.

It’s not known what natural formally means, and for this reason there are companies out there marketing “natural” products containing chemicals that most would not consider “natural”.

So what do we do if we’re looking for the best all natural skin care products and there are some out there which can still contain potentially nasty ingredients?

We’re looking because we want to use the best skin care products that are SAFE to use. We don’t want to use any products that may pose any risk to our health in the process of using them.

And as we now know that you want safe products we can use this information to help.

So how do we use this? We find the website for the Cosmetics Safety Database. Here you can search various ingredients used in products and find a rating of their potential health risks.

So you can look at any product and search the ingredients to see if they are considered unsafe to health. You could search “parabens” for example, (a popular chemical preservative) and see what risks parabens pose.

Then search out the website of the Campaign For Safe Cosmetics. There you can find a compact that any company can sign to pledge them to only producing safe products that don’t contain potentially dangerous ingredients. Get there and you can search this to see if the company that makes the products you use has signed.

And if you find a company that has signed the compact you know they have pledged themselves to making safe products.

So you’ve found a company that makes natural skin care products and has signed. So their products are safe. But how do you know they’re any good? Well to me any company that offers a money back guarantee on their products must have good products. But even amongst the natural skin care companies that have signed getting a guarantee is very rare.

And once you’ve done your search you’ll find that one company has signed the compact AND offers a full money back guarantee, and it’s that company that makes the best all natural skin care products.

Head over to my website to find out which company.
