The saying goes, if you wouldn’t eat it, you shouldn't put it on your face. This phrase has become very popular in the beauty community because products often carry harsh chemicals and toxins that should not be put on the skin. Since the skin is our largest organ, what is put on it goes straight into the blood stream. It is more direct than ingesting, since it doesn't have any other organs to break the chemicals down. The United States isn’t as strict as other countries when it comes to what is put in beauty products, so consumers are spearheading the clean beauty revolution.
The Detox Market held a panel on clean beauty to discuss the industry and answer burning questions about what clean beauty is and the process behind it. Panelists were all working on clean beauty before it became a current trend and know the ins and outs of making clean products. |
