Can You Tell a "Fake" Natural Skin Care Treatment Product from a Real One?

    BEVERLY HILLS, CA, August 03, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- If you've walked into a drug store or department store to shop for a dry skin treatment recently you may have been a bit overwhelmed by all of the options available. Choosing the best lotion for dry skin doesn't have to be difficult. You just need to know what to look for and what to avoid in a dry skin cream. You also need to know about a recent discovery in the field of cosmetics.

The first thing you think you want to look for is the word "natural".

There is approximately six pounds of skin on your body - it's largest organ and also a giant porous membrane. Women absorb nearly five pounds of toxic chemicals each and every year from cosmetic makeup and other personal care products. That is why it's really important to look for high quality natural dry skin care and beauty products.

The truth is, with all of the Madison Avenue marketing we are all fooled into buying a product just because the words "natural" or "organic" appear somewhere on the label; you need to look for more words. Currently the FDA does not regulate cosmetic or personal care products and there are no laws in place to protect or warn the consumer when it comes to using the term "natural" in commercial packaging.

To find the best natural skin care products, look at the ingredients list. Ingredients which are most used begin at the top of the list by FDA law. Natural ingredients appearing at the top of the list will be healthier for your skin than one with only a few listed at the very bottom of the list - you'll know if you are getting more "natural" than chemical.

The other words to look for? Shielding lotion. It's a new discovery in the field of beauty care and dry skin treatment. Shielding lotions are the best dry skin moisturizer because they restore your skin's natural barrier. There's a new kid on the block - Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion (http://www.skinmdnatural.com) - they'll even send you a free sample (ingredient list included!) that you can try out for yourself!

These are some of the hurdles that any company must deal with when formulating a product. Don't avoid a product just because it has a few ingredients that aren't natural. Instead write down any ingredients you aren't familiar with and do an Internet search to make sure they are considered to be non-toxic before purchasing.

21st Century Formulations is a company dedicated to creating healthy skin care shielding lotions. For more information please contact 1-800-540-4790.
