It's true. Many of us have so many products its ridiculous!
Plus a lot of cosmetics have a shelf life and if not stored correctly and brushes not cleaned regularly, they harbour vast amounts of bacteria...yuk!
So many women are also ingesting and absorbing way too many chemicals from their cosmetics and skin care. These chemicals are absorbed through the skin (it only takes approximately under a minute for the ingredients to enter the blood stream) and research has found these chemicals are endocrine distruptors meaning they are causing inbalances in our precious hormones.
Imagine our young women and teens and what the overuse of these synthetic nasties is doing to their reproductive systems?
That's why I always recommend my clients do their ingredient research before purchasing skincare and cosmetics and I like to recommend kinder, safer products, such at Tropic Skincare which is an amazing, British brand making smaller, freshly made batches of "clean", "no nasties" products right here in Surrey.
With the help of apps such as Think Dirty and Yuka you can scan or look up brands and products and research the ingredients before making a decision. I love that!
