Who hasn't come across the term 'clean' beauty? I know I have. And really, who wouldn’t want their beauty products to be clean? But have you ever stopped to think about what 'clean beauty' really means? You might be surprised to find out that it’s not as simple as it sounds. The concept of 'clean beauty' is actually quite nuanced, and there's no one-size-fits-all definition. What the marketing suggests and what it actually means can be two very different things.
Want to learn more about clean beauty and go behind the scenes with a dermatologist turned skincare creator, then be sure to check out this week's podcast with Dr. Lindy Fox to get the real scoop on clean beauty. Is it genuine or just a buzzword? Learn what clean beauty really means, the top products to use, and the biggest myths about clean beauty.
Key Takeaways:
- The term 'clean beauty' has no real definition and can mean different things to different people.
- Marketing terms like 'dermatologist approved' and 'medical grade' often have little meaning and can be misleading.
- It is important to avoid common sensitizers in skincare products, such as fragrances and certain preservatives.
- Maintaining a healthy skin barrier is crucial, and using gentle cleansers and moisturizers can help achieve this.
- Parabens, while they can be endocrine disruptors, may not pose a significant risk when applied topically. Simplicity is key in a skincare routine.
- Educate yourself on problematic and safe ingredients.
- Empower yourself to test products for sensitivities.
