Can Hypoallergenic Skin Care Products And Non Comedogenic Skin Care Products Just Be A Con?

If you have had a nasty allergic skin reaction to modern anti aging in care products then you’re in good company and you may be forgiven for looking for hypoallergenic anti aging products. Or perhaps you’ve had your acne exacerbated by modern anti aging products and so you’d be equally forgiven for searching for non comedogenic skin care products.

Most modern anti aging skin products contain petrochemical and chemical ingredients that can produce health problems including allergies and skin reactions. And many also contain mineral oil which clogs the pores of the skin and can create acne.

But there is no definition of what hypoallergenic skin care is or for that matter what non comedogenic is and if you see skin care products labelled as hypoallergenic or non comedogenic they may or may not be.

This is because the FDA is not required to examine any claims made on the labels of anti aging skin care products. The industry is entirely self regulated and as a result there is no requirement that any manufacturer prove any claims that it makes on the labels of its products.

There are powerful reasons for consumers to look for hypoallergenic skin care and non comedogenic anti aging products but there are many traps for the unwary and it is likely that products labeled as such may still contain many of the chemical and petrochemical ingredients that you should be avoiding.

So if you are, for good reason, searching for a hypoallergenic moisturizer, for example, how do you find one?

What you need to do is to find the company that clearly and publicly demonstrates its commitment to the safety of the ingredients used in it’s products (as well as to the effectiveness of it’s products).

There are a number of companies, one especially, that publicly evidences a corporate philosophy and a commitment to producing natural skin care products which use high quality natural ingredients which are known safe and do not produce allergies. There is an organisation called the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and it is possible on their website to sign a compact that publicly commits the company to producing products with only known safe ingredients.

And there are also companies, including this one particular company, which strive to make it totally clear on their website that they have a corporate philosophy that all products produced by that company shall be totally safe to use. This commitment to product safety comes before all other commitments.

Unusually the company that produces natural skin care products in this way does not label them as hypoallergenic skin care products or non comedogenic skin care products at all though in fact this is what they are.

In other words don’t believe the label that you see on the bottles. Look at the corporate philosophy of the company that makes the products to find evidence of its commitment to product safety.

And you would usually find that a company with such a stated commitment to product safety makes equally effective skin care products as well.
