SKIN CARE: A Troubling Trend

Human skin is like a large sponge and absorbs trace amounts of almost everything with which it comes in contact - both harmful and beneficial. The skin is especially vulnerable to solvents and petrochemical- based chemicals. When some of these chemicals come in contact with the skin, they can be absorbed in far higher volumes than other types of substances.


This means that many questionable petrochemicals commonly found in personal-care products such as sodium laurel sulphate (SLS), triethanolamine (TEA), polyethelyne glycol (PEG), and quaterniums (ammonium salt) can be absorbed into the skin. Over time, some of these chemicals may accumulate in the organs and tissues and result in mounting brain, nerve and liver damage.

The most troubling indication that showed that the synthetic chemicals in cosmetics and shampoos may be leaching into our bodies was provided by the government- funded Human Adipose Tissue Survey. According to this study, almost every person tested showed measurable levels of petroleum-based, carcinogenic chemicals, such as toluene, benzene and styrene, in their fatty tissues.

This is why increasing numbers of health professionals are recommending personal care formulas that are completely natural and free of synthetic or petroleum-based ingredients.

"To stay healthy, people have to do more than just exercise and eat healthy" states Terry Friedmann MD. "Consumers should also avoid personal care products that contain toxic synthetic ingredients that penetrate the skin and accumulate in their tissues. in some cases, these products can have a greater impact on health than either diet or exercise.   

Ronald Lawrence,, MD, PhD, agrees "The importance of MSM for healthy skin and hair cannot be overemphasized. In my clinical practice, I have seen the difference that MSM makes. It is outstanding whether allied topically or taken as a dietary supplement"

Many of the skin-care products found in Young Living contain Wolfberry seed oil, a costly unusual ingredient that makes important contributions to healthy skin.

Along with Wolfberry seed oil, these products contain MSM  an essential nutrient that has an unsurpassed ability to strengthen the skin.

In addition to Wolfberry seed oil and MSM, these skin care products also contain therapeutic grade essential oils that have a long history of use in skin care. Pure Myrrh Sandalwood, Geranium, Lavender, Ylang Ylang, Frankincense and Roman Chamomile essential oils have been used to preserve the health of the skin throughout recorded history.

Also included in these personal care products is a proprietary blend of antioxidant herbal extracts such as ginko biloba, orange blossom, witch hazel, cucumber, horse chestnut, and aloe vera gel, as well as special blends of pure vegetable oils such as almond, jojoba, avocado, and rose hipseed oils.

They feel AMAZING on my skin! Without question, these are products for the new millennium. I have been using Young Living Personal Care products for years and I can feel and see a HUGE difference. I am very, very impressed! MSM is absolutely dynamite for the skin and hair!! OIL🆙💧#YLGuy💪🧔
