Anyone whos had an allergic reaction to anti aging skin care products would be forgiven for looking for hypoallergenic skin care products. Similarly anyone whos had their acne exacerbated by modern skin care products would also be forgiven for looking for non comedogenic anti aging products.
Mainstream anti aging skin care products contain a range of chemical and petrochemical ingredients that can cause health concerns including skin reactions and allergies. Ingredients such as mineral oil can clog the pores and lead to acne.
However the reality is that there is no formal definition of hypoallergenic skin care or non comedogenic skin care and that any products labelled as such may or may not be what they state on the label. There are many anti aging products available labeled as hypoallergenic anti aging products and non comedogenic which are not.
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 youve had an allergic reaction from an anti aging moisturizer for example, how do you successfully find a good hypoallergenic moisturizer if this is the case?
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 its products (as well as to the effectiveness of its products).
There are companies, one in particular, that publicly evidence a corporate philosophy that commits the company to producing products which only use high quality and known safe ingredients. For example there is an organization called the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and it is possible for companies to sign the compact on the website of the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics which publicly evidences the intention of the company to use only safe ingredients in its products.
And equally there are companies, again one in particular, that makes it quite clear on their website, to their total commitment to product safety above all other considerations.
Strangely the natural skin care products manufactured in this way are not label as hypoallergenic skin care products or non comedogenic skin care products. The reality is however that this is what they are.
In other words you need to go beyond the claims made on the label and look behind the corporate philosophy of the company that makes the products to find a dedication to making safe products before all else.
And usually you will find that a company that commits itself to making totally safe products will also make the highest quality skin care products available.
