About this episode
For years we have been inundated with advertisements for skin care that fights aging and wrinkles. Women in particular have been targeted, as society has a particularly high standard for their appearance. In fact studies have shown that women spend almost 10 times more on cosmetic products per year than men. Additionally all of these skin care products claim to help with smoothness or reducing acne. What these marketing schemes aren't transparent about is the toxic chemicals included in these products such as mercury, which can cause toxicity and poisoning leading to tremors, changes in vision and hearing, and memory problems). These products also include PFOAs and PTFEs. These have been linked to cancer, endocrine disruption, and reproduction harm. Whatever is going on your skin is going in your skin and a lot of these ingredients included in "anti-aging" skincare products are toxic to our body. So, how do we obtain younger looking skin without putting our bodies (and skin) at risk? That's what we are going to explore in this episode of Fatal Conveniences Solutions – Alternatives for anti aging skincare.
