Are The Best Anti Aging Products Necessarily Safe?

If you’re beginning to notice the irritating signs of skin ageing such as wrinkles and skin sagging then you might have spent a lot of your time searching for the very best anti aging products on the market.

Those captivating television ads and glossy magazine ads just seem so convincing that those anti aging creams must be great.

However for anyone searching for the best anti aging products there is a question to ask yourself before you decide whether or not those seductive skin care products work well. The question to ask is are those skin care products safe to use?

There’s a range of chemical ingredients used in so many of the big name skin care and anti aging products that you see commonly on the shelves of your local stores. Today I want to talk about one of those chemical ingredients called Propylene Glycol.

You may have some Propylene Glycol in your car right now because it’s the principal component of antifreeze that goes in car radiators. The EPA suggests that people working with Propylene Glycol wear protective clothing including gloves and goggles to avoid it coming into contact with their skin.

If you go to the Cosmetic Safety Database and search on Propylene Glycol you’ll find that it is listed as being an ingredient in 690 anti aging products as well as 118 facial treatments and 945 anti aging moisturizers, as well as many other personal products.

And you will also see that it is linked to cancer, allergies and immunotoxicity, developmental and reproductive toxicity and skin irritation as well as other worrying health conditions.

Whether the glossy advertising tells you they’re the best anti aging products in the world you should be avoiding it if it has Propylene Glycol as an ingredient, and that applies also to a wide range of other chemical ingredients found in so many skin care products.

The FDA does not have to satisfy itself that any ingredients used in anti aging products are safe for people to apply to their skin. The manufacturers use these chemical ingredients because they are cheap and because they can.

So if you’re a woman noticing those first signs and symptoms of ageing skin what do you do? Do you avoid all anti ageing products and skin care products and just accept the fact of wrinkles? No.

The well-known big name skin care lines may be contaminated with chemical ingredients but there is still very small niche anti aging companies seeking to produce the highest quality anti aging products that use safe ingredients.

One of these companies in particular makes extremely high quality products. They use natural ingredients all known to be safe and which are also known to have excellent skin care properties but these natural ingredients are very very expensive.

So you’d have to assume that their anti aging products are also highly expensive but in fact they aren’t. These companies cannot afford to factor the costs of television advertising and magazine advertising into the price of the product so they choose not to advertise and so these costs are not included in the price as they are for the big name brands making these products very price competitive.

The good news is that the best anti aging products are made by a company you’ve probably never heard of. But when you do you’ll be amazed at how good (and how safe) these products are.
