Our Skin Need toners are free of Denatured Alcohol and Propylene Glycol, enriching freshly cleansed skin with all that is natural, nutritional, and renewing.
Many toners impart an exceptionally fresh sensation after use, which is often due to Denatured Alcohol being present in the formulas to produce the intended sensory result.
All our Toners are free of:
-
SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) - increases the potential of skin irritation and may disturb internal health
-
SLES (Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate) - a known irritant and its bioaccumulation is damaging to marine life
-
Propylene Glycols - potential risk of irritation and allergic reaction in high doses
-
TEA (Triethanolamine) - occasionally causes contact allergy and chemical damage to skin
-
Parabens - when absorbed, metabolized, and excreted, could potentially lead to adverse health effects
- Silicon Derivatives - very chemically inert, and can take as long as hundreds of years for the earth to decompose; incidents of aggravating breakout has been reported from prolong use of products with high silicon derivatives
-
PEG (Polyethylene Glycol) - a by-product of fossil fuel, a mild skin irritant; may pose an issue for those with liver problems as the liver may not be able to process PEG efficiently
-
Mineral Oil - greasy texture that easily weights the skin down; may increase skin’s susceptibility to UV damage; confers no biological activity
-
Petrolatum - derived from petroleum and may prevent penetration of other ingredients into the skin
