Is there any subjectin the beauty industrytoday more confusingthan natural skincare?
Walk down an aisle in your
local drugstore and it seems
every second product boasts
a natural label or some type
of natural claim Why is this?
NATURALCONFUSION
The honest truth of the matter is that we now live
in an increasingly polluted world. And this pollution
is affecting our health and the condition of our
skin. Just look at the rates of adult acne and skinsensitivities these days. Scientists have proven
that over 60% of the products you apply to your
face and body get absorbed into the bloodstream
including moisturizers, sunscreens and anti-aging
products. Because of this, many consumers are
looking for natural alternatives to synthetic formulas.
They feel better applying natural ingredients to their

POTENTIALRISKS
The Natural Products
Association in the
United States, a
72-year-old, not-for-profit organization
committed to the
natural products
industry has identified
ten ingredients
th t th b li
1. Parabens. These are synthetic preservatives that
are potential endocrine disrupters that can affect our
hormone levels.
2. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. Think of these as harsh
cleansing agents that can potentially damage the lipid
layer of your skin and cause irritation. By stripping the
skins natural oil levels which act as a first-line barrier,
viruses can more easily enter into the body.
3. Petrolatum/Mineral Oil/Paraffin. These are
non-renewable byproducts of crude oil that contain
potentially dangerous impurities.
4. Chemical Sunscreens (Oxybenzone).These
synthetic sunscreens get absorbed into the skin and
can potentially disrupt hormone balances. They are
also suspected to cause some free-radical production.
5. Glycols. Think of these petroleum-derived
synthetic
chemicals as magnets. They are thought to be able to
draw other chemicals into the bloodstream.
6. Phthalates. Some scientists believe these
synthetic fragrance compounds to be potential toxins

WHAT ISNATURAL?
According toHealth Canada, thegovernmental departmentthat monitors all skincare
and beauty products inCanada, there is no legaldefinition for naturalskincare products inCanada.
led the initiative to defi ne the word natural.
The defi nition is two-fold: ingredients that
come from purposeful, renewable and plentiful
sources found in nature such as fl ora, fauna and
minerals. And, the products must be made with
minimal processing that does not use synthetic
or harsh chemicals or otherwise dilute the purity
of the ingredients.
When Is Non-Natural Acceptable?
Non-natural ingredients are only acceptable
when there is no viable natural alternative

THE
NATURAL
SKINCAREMARKET
Just how big is thenatural personal caremarket today?
Thats a tough question to
answer. Since the category
is so new, there is little data
available. Market Research fi rm
Kline Group estimates the total
sales of natural products to
Packaged Facts, a market researcher publisher in the
United States agrees with this analysis. According
to its most recent study, sales of natural and organic
personal care products in the United States grew
from $2 billion in 2001 to $6.1 billion in 2006.The fi rm predicts that sales will top $10.2 billion by2012. The companys retail analysts believe thereare two factors driving these sales: the fi rst is public
concern over environmental crises, fair trade practices
and the fear of possible cancer causing chemicals

DO NATURAL SKINCARE
PRODUCTS ACTUALLY
WORK?
Do natural skincare products really work?
Besides the obvious question about potentially
harmful ingredients, the biggest question
regarding natural skincare products is do they
really work? As recent as fi ve years ago, many natural
skincare creams had the consistency of glue and smelled
even worse. And the effi cacy in many cases didnt match
traditional beauty brands. But scientists such as Celeste
Lutario, who specialize in natural formulas at Burts Bees are

ingredient so we have to
make our product slightly
synthetic. The second one
is suncare. Because titanium
and zinc are the only natural
suncare ingredients, when
you use them you get
some whiteness to the
product which affects the
aesthetics. So those are

Think of it this way: the way a plant survives is by carefully
balancing all the minerals, vitamins and antioxidants that it contains.
So when you use a plant in a natural skincare product, those
ingredients stay balanced. Your own skin recognizes this balance
and will accept it much more readily than a synthetic version. Theway the synthetic cosmetic industry does it is they mimic one of
those pieces found in the plant. Theyll look and say Oh, those
AHAs get rid of wrinkles. Lets fi nd out that chemical makeup,
mimic it, concentrate it and use it in a product. The issue with
this method is the body wants to stay balanced. As soon as you
put that concentrated material on your skin, the body feels it is

The most damaging factors for skin are
sun damage and free radicals that can
destroy the cells. So youll notice that
natural skincare products will contain
antioxidants, essential oils with the
proper balance of vitamins, minerals and
amino acids. Chemists will choose the
best essential oils for a specific purpose.

pump-like action that aids in healing by
stimulating the circulation of white blood
cells to an area. This technique is great for
treating acute infections, increasing muscletone and strength, and healing varicose
veins. Start with an application of hot water
and end with cold. Apply the hot twice as
long as the cold and repeat 3 - 5 times.
