DermaVeratrol Fares Well in New Study of Toxic Cosmetic Ingredients

MIDDLETOWN, Conn., April 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Women who shop for health and beauty products are hardly unfamiliar with the notion of hazardous ingredients or toxic chemicals. These dangerous ingredients have long been points of concern for makeup buyers, but a new report reveals just how widespread the problem is. The article reports that there are more than 10,000 separate ingredients used in the beauty trade, and many of them are best avoided altogether. However, a few common cosmetic products receive positive reports form the new study—including anti-aging cream DermaVeratrol.

For cosmetic shoppers who know DermaVeratrol, this is hardly a surprise. The product has long marketed itself as a toxin-free beauty cream. In addition to its wrinkle-reducing and fine line-smoothing effects, DermaVeratrol is known as a product that skimps on some of these toxins warned against in the new study.

DermaVeratrol's company President, Bryan VanAlmkerk, says this is simply in keeping with the company's values. "Moms and women alike are becoming more and more aware of what's in their products, which stem from makeup to even shampoos," he notes. "By making a constant effort to provide a product that contains no parabens and is as close to natural as can be, we hope we allow women to simply rejoice, for once, and not have to worry."

Indeed, his product's paraben-free content is one of its most publicized features, and one of the reasons it fares so well in the new toxins report. The report makes note of parabens as health hazards, and says that cosmetic manufacturers are required to wear respirators to avoid inhaling them. In addition, parabens are tested on animals.

Beyond parabens, the study lists several common toxins that DermaVeratrol and a few other prominent, health-conscious cosmetic products avoid.  These range from unhealthy food preservatives such as BHA to other chemicals, which the study says are essentially embalming agents.

More generally, the study notes the kinds of insidious ways in which these toxic ingredients can affect the body. Hardly just confined to the skin, they can also be absorbed into the bloodstream and transferred onto doorknobs. In the cases of sprays and aerosol-borne products, they can also infiltrate and pollute the air.

While the study is adamant in saying that many common cosmetic products still employ these poisonous contents, and that consumers should exercise caution, products like DermaVeratrol have long been known for the absence of parabens and other, similarly dangerous agents. DermaVeratrol is heavy on natural ingredients, including vitamins and organically occurring antioxidants.
