Links to useful sites with holistic skin care and body care information

Holistic skin care and body care is something more and more people are turning to. As we become more aware of the harmful chemicals and additives in products we use daily, we need information on what is in our body care products, and what these ingredients actually do to our skin and body.

Every day we use chemicals in our homes, we eat from packets and tins full of preservatives, we breathe air filled with various pollutants, and we wash and care for our skin using an unknown mix of chemical ingredients.

As human beings, we are extremely resilient and adaptable, but do we really know the effect this mix of chemicals is having on our health? Each individual amount may be small, but together they build up.

By choosing natural products, we can at least eliminate as many unnecessary chemical ingredients as we can from the products which go directly onto our skin.

This page has a number of links to useful information about what goes into the products we use, and how to avoid the harmful additives.

Visit the Channel 4 website to read information from the programme on the chemicals found in skin care products.
