Shop any where, search anywhere, and you will see that there is obviously over a thousand skin care brands on the market currently. With so many choices, picking the correct skincare products may be a bit impossible. I’m going to help you to filter the list by using a basic criteria of what could be important in deciding on skin care products. I can discard most of the brands with ensuring the products are manufactured by a brand that is; owned independently, are free of toxins, and are cruelty free. These are important values that we all embrace and we all support from a business. Independently-owned brands are brands which won’t received any external money in exchange for a perecent of control of the company. These companies are typically called Indie brands. There are numerous Indie brands across the country that run on a limited basis because of their small size. And there are various Indie brands which are leading the movement and have succeeded into a national presence. There are additionally one or two Indie brands that are chasing the prize of being globally-traded. One such leader in the Indie market is Russell Organics. They are expanding across every beauty channel from mass to luxury. Russell Organics is also internationally distributed, with a publicly stated desire of being the first globally traded Indie brand. If choosing an Indie brand be cautious of not disclosed outside investors. We have researched this, and almost all of the larger so-called Indie brands have taken external investors. The next filter for selecting a good skin care brand is it being toxin free. What does this actually mean? There are many synthetic ingredients, botanical ingredients, emulsifing ingredients, and extracts used to formulate products. Many of these ingredients are synthetic toxins that have been shown to be toxic to humans and to the environment. Russell Organics is heading the Clean Beauty trend by never using harmful ingredients and by fully disclosing every ingredient in every product. Look for yourself. Check the labels. Do russell organics notice ingredients listed as perfume? Did you realize that parfum can contain over 1000 chemicals and you wouldn not ever realize which ones? Talk about a dangerous scenario. Did you ever walk into a space and smell a perfume and immediately have itcy eyes and begin to sneeze? These are the toxins that can also be hiding in your skincare products. A fabulous resource to check on ingredients is Environmental Working Group which has created a deep database of ingredients and disclosed their level of toxicity. The final criteria is the brand being cruelty free. What does cruelty free mean? There is a lot of confusion regarding the term. Let’s begin by identifying that to be cruelty free, the product must be a vegan product. That means no animal derived ingredients such as milk, honey, beeswax are never added in any product. That removes at least 90 percent of the brands on the market. The other issue for being cruelty free is having never tested products on animals. All of the global mass cosmetic brands have conducted testing on animals. This lust for profits at the expense of harming animals is not excusable and should not be supported by buying their products.  In summary, these simple primary filters will help you to narrow down the list of selections to those brands that are deserving of your support. From there it should be a simple process of choosing the right skincare product for your skin type. |
