What to Avoid in Natural Skin Care Products This Holiday Season

BEVERLY HILLS, CA, December 13, 2012 (Press-News.org) If you've walked into a drug store or department store to shop for skin care products recently, you may have been a bit overwhelmed by all of the options available. Choosing the best skin care products for your skin doesn't have to be hard - you just need to know what dry skin cream to look for and what to avoid.

The first thing you want to look for is the word natural.

But what you may not know is that there is approximately six pounds of skin on your body. Skin is our largest organ and is also a giant porous membrane. Each and every year women absorb nearly five pounds of toxic chemicals from cosmetic makeup and other personal care products.

That is why it is necessary to look for high-quality natural skin care and beauty products when buying a gift for your loved ones.

Currently the FDA does not regulate cosmetic or personal skin care products. In addition to this, there are no laws in place to protect or warn the consumer when it comes to using the term "natural" on their packaging. For that reason, it is important to look at the ingredients list and do a little investigative work before purchasing any cosmetic product.

Ingredients which are most used begin at the top of the list by FDA law. Products with natural ingredients appearing at the top of the ingredients list will be healthier for your skin than one with only a few listed at the very bottom of the list. It's a simple way to at least know you are getting more "natural" than chemical.

So what is the best dry skin treatment? What is the best lotion for dry skin? And what problems can arise when the wrong skin product is applied to your skin?

Recently, The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development participated in a study showing that an ineffective skin barrier may lead to dry skin conditions including eczema. What one needs to look for is a unique natural skin care product designed to hydrate and work with the skin to strengthen its own natural barrier defense.

A new dry skin treatment, Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion, has been found to help strengthen your skin's natural barriers to toxins and daily abrasives. Skin MD Natural Shielding lotion has also been found to reduce dry skin irritation and significantly helps in the healing process where eczema is concerned that can heal severe eczema.

"With the use of Skin MD Natural we get faster results and the patient has to use less medication. Hands down a shielding lotion works better than any conventional lotion," explains Dr. Peter Helton, a board-certified dermatologist of Newport Beach California.

With the holiday season now upon us, you want to provide for our loved ones high quality natural skin care products and dry skin lotion for dry skin care. You want to find the best lotion for dry skin. But buyers beware: just because the packaging and promises of a skin care product appears incredible, It does not mean that it is really "natural" or that it really works!
