  • How To Select A Firming Body Wash Which Is Perfectly Safe
  • You might think that the risk of getting some nasty reaction from a fragrance full of synthetic chemicals is probably quite small and you would be correct!  But what about a firming body wash which is used all over the largest organ on our bodies and regularly too? This is a whole new ball game because there are risks here. The risks are due to the fact that the area covered is so much greater and the frequency of the applications too.

    Did you know that ingredient called 1.4 dioxane is often used for a firming body wash and bubble baths?  That was banned in Californiabecause it is a carcinogen. It is made by adding ethylene oxide which is now known as a breast carcinogen. Simple, shocking, but true! However, it still has not been banned elsewhere so we have to contend with this, alongside hundreds of other synthetics which are all a very shady bunch.

    Regulation in the cosmaceutical industry and personal care products market is a long way off in the US. The FDA refuses to do anything and will rarely intervene as they think that cosmetics are not like medicines and so they wash their hands of the whole affair. Fortunately there are more enlightened legislators in the EU and other countries who are making progress in regulating the industry.

    In order for a firming body wash to be effective, you have to ensure that it is free of some of the nasties mentioned above. But that is not enough as it should also contain ingredients that are effective in enhancing our own production of

    1. Collagen
    2. Elastin
    3. Hyaluronic acid.

    These are the elements that really will make a difference in firming up the skin. The collagen is like a glue which is made up of a network of fibers which give the skin structure a supple quality.  In addition, hyaluronic acid will ensure that skin is smooth and glowing.

    The best ingredients which are capable of all that are nano lipobelle HEQ10 which is a sort of CoQ10 enhancer. The other one is phytessence wakame which can stop our supplies of HA from being depleted.

    If this is the sort of skincare you dreamed about and thought was never possible with a natural body firming cream, have a look at my website to get an idea of how progress skincare has made in the last decade.
