wow so many people wash their face with commercial bar soap without even thinking twice and they wonder why they have to use lotions and creams and they wonder why their skin’s so dry and they have to use things to counter this dermatitis or little areas of red patches so i want to just increase your awareness on what’s actually in commercial soap so you can just get an alternative so let’s talk about the ingredients first so number one you have this chemical called sodium lauryl sulfate now sometimes you’ll use ammonium lauryl sulfate too and this is the lathering agent it’s in your shampoos it’s in your cleansers it’s in your body washes it’s a thing that makes that lathering effect and recently i released my own shampoo and conditioner and some people are wondering why doesn’t it lather like my regular shampoo well that’s because we omitted this one ingredient it’s a synthetic chemical that can irritate your skin it can create inflammation and you can dry out your skin and sometimes this chemical is contaminated with other chemicals that are carcinogenic so definitely start reading the back of the ingredients now i’m mainly talking about the face i mean you could use it for the rest of the body i mean that’s not a big issue but i wouldn’t put it on your face the number two ingredient to watch out for is parabens so and definitely look at other names because sometimes they’ll put methylparaben or propyl parabens but anything with parabens you want to avoid it’s a preservative it’s an antibacterial but it can lead to an estrogenic effect and there’s certain studies that even shows that it affects the fertility in animal studies so anything you put on the skin actually absorbs inside your body your skin is like a sponge so just remember that your skin is really the primary barrier for your immune system so there’s a lot of friendly bacteria in the skin that you don’t want to kill so anything that’s an antibacterial watch out for because it’s also going to kill off your good bacteria very similar to an antibiotic and then what happens is you get this overgrowth of other microbes that you don’t want like yeast candida uh things like that all right number three ingredient to watch out for is formaldehyde it’s a great to embalm a body but not to embalm your face it can increase your risk of getting cancer it can really dry out your skin and the next one is the synthetic fragrances okay i mean some of these soaps are just so so strong and so irritating but they’re petroleum-based they’re petrochemicals there’s solvents that they use to make these fragrances so you really want a soap that’s either fragrance free or that only uses essential oils all right next one is something called triclosan okay triclosan is a very powerful antibacterial chemical but the problem is like i just said can kill off the good bacteria and increase the risk of e coli and and even mrsa so avoid things with this chemical the other thing they quite commonly use in soaps is coal tar dyes okay they’re coloring agents and the way they make these is with chemicals petroleum type products and there’s all sorts of negative effects especially drying out your skin i mean i remember growing up having bad acne and here i was using a bar of cell commercial soap scrubbing my face thinking that would help it always just worsened my skin it aggravated my acne and it never got rid of it so the solution is to spend a little bit more on something that’s more natural something that is either homemade or handcrafted something that does not have sodium lauryl sulfate something that’s fragrance free doesn’t have the synthetic dyes yet something that’s made of a healthy fat that uses essential oils and doesn’t have chemicals now i think a really appropriate next video for you to watch which would be this one on how to diagnose the inside of your body just by looking at the face check it out i put it up right here
