The Scary Truth About Skincare Products: What You Don't Know

    BEVERLY HILLS, CA, April 25, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Many of us are quick to forget that the skin is the body's largest external organ. Because your skin is on the outside of your body, it is constantly attacked by toxins and chemical irritants. Many skin care products - even those claiming to be natural - often contain harsh synthetic chemicals (unregulated by the FDA) that could be damaging your skin at this very moment!

The average woman absorbs up to five pounds of toxic chemicals from her skin care and other personal care. Chances are they contain fragrances, parabens, dyes, or other irritating chemicals that are very harmful to your skin.

Large skin care companies use a number of tactics to distract consumers from the most important aspect of their product the ingredients list. Many of the skin care products produced by major corporations contain money saving synthetic chemicals that damage and irritate your skin's barrier. When your skin barrier becomes damaged dry skin and other skin problems become a daily occurrence.

But there is a new discovery that will protect your skin: Shielding Lotions.

Shielding lotions work to strengthen the your skin's natural barrier so that your skin can heal itself and true relief can be found. Dr. Brain Zogg a board certified dermatologist, explains how shielding lotions differ from your conventional lotions: "A fundamental difference between Shielding Lotions and traditional lotions are that shielding lotions enhance the skin's own natural protective abilities by turning the outer layer of skin into what could be described as a hydrating invisible shield, making them many times more effective than mere protective lotions and moisturizing creams."
