The article emphasizes the importance of choosing skincare products carefully due to the skin's ability to absorb substances into the bloodstream. It discusses the misleading nature of "natural" or "clean" beauty labels, which often do not guarantee ethical sourcing or low environmental impact. Sustainability expert Alyssa Hardy notes that consumers should look for transparency in the sourcing of ingredients. The article concludes that the best skincare options are both safe for users and sustainable, highlighting the complexities of the beauty industry's supply chain.
The best skincare products for our bodies are often also the least harmful to the Earth: These are products made without parabens, preservatives, or artificial fragrances.
Brands should always give you a how and a why-saying it's made with sustainable ingredients without any mention of supply chain sourcing is a major red flag.
Many ingredients, even bio-based ones that appear more natural and sustainable, may not be cultivated ethically, or with low impact on the environment.
Many 'natural' products are made with ingredients that have negative impacts on the Earth when sourced irresponsibly.
