Beauty Products

It turns out beauty is more than skin deep: The average person slathers, lathers, rubs and sprays, 10 different beauty products every day—and since our skin acts more like a sponge than a barrier, we absorb the nearly 130 chemicals we regularly expose ourselves to. Cosmetics companies and the FDA maintain that these chemicals are safe, and many of them are—in small doses at least. But consider that the average woman ingest as much as four pounds of lipstick in her lifetime, and you begin to understand how a little dab here a quick spray there begins to add up.

Let's face it: no one really knows how certain chemicals affect us over a time, or how they react in our bodies in combination. Other chemicals have known dangers: Phthalates, for example, which are often found in artificial fragrances, are a class of hormone disruptor known to cause birth defects, sperm damage, infertility, and the feminization of baby boys, for instance.

Almost 90 percent of the 10,500 cosmetics and skin care ingredients known to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration have not been evaluated for safety by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review, the FDA, or any other publicly accountable institution, according to the Environmental Working Group. To be fair, no one's dropping dead after a using a mascara wand or a body wash, and manufacturers have an interest in creating products that don't harm their customers.

But complex chemicals with potential unknown side effects lead us to follow the Precautionary Principle. That is to say, if we’d prefer to err on the side of safety until we know. We’re not the only ones who feel this way: More than 1,110 personal-product ingredients have been banned for use in cosmetics in the European Union because of concerns that they may cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive ills. By contrast only 10 are banned here in the U.S.

Testimonials

I just wanted to post a brief testimonial about how I benefited from Berrysistible.  After less than four months of use, I'm beginning to see dramatic improvements in my skin and complexion.  I had old acne scarring that has tremendously improved.  Also I had chronic folliculitis along my scalp that has completely vanished. Thanks. Frank Austin, NJ, USA.

Just wanted you to know that my daughter who hadn't seen me since I've been using this product because she was attending school in Mexico, commented on how wonderful my complexion was looking. She asked what I was using and I told her. She has started using it and really likes the way it leaves her skin feeling. She, however doesn't have a skin problem. I also have another daughter that continually gets a skin condition on her hands and the doctors have never been able to figure out what it is or what causes it. A few weeks ago those bumps appeared on her hands again and I told her to try some of this cream. She put it on before she went to bed and the next morning it was gone and she hasn't had it again. Racine Lynch. West Virginia. USA.

Excellent product! saw a difference almost immediately. Great for use under make-up. Makes skin look younger, brighter and smoother!!! Miss Uche Okoli. London.

I have been using it for like 3 weeks now for my terrible sensitive and atopic skin. My skin is less sensitive, less dry. No more face rashes or pain. More clear, less frekles. I have notice an improvement in my wrinkles. Less noticeable. But most of all: one time in the morning and my face keeps soothed the whole day and night. It has not given me any rash at all. I am under new HRT (hormone replacement treatment) because of a histerectomy. I haven't tried it in my scar but probably I will. It was very hard for me to find the cream in Costa Rica. But as I found it I started using it. I am 45 going to 46 very white and atopic complexion and I can say I am happy with this product. Thanks. Maria Gabriela Hidalgo Costa Rica.

I really love the cream. This is my second order and I feel like it has helped the under-eye area to look younger and some of the acne scars on my face are beginning to fade. Helen Warren. TX, USA

I never try things like this, they always seem gimmicky (is that a word?) but last fall I ordered some on a whim. Ever since moving to Los Angeles, I have been breaking out. I think its the air quality here. But this stuff made my skin look like porcelain! I have been telling everyone about it, I love it! Chris Cl. West Hollywood, USA.

I have been using your product for 6 weeks and the inflammation on my face has considerably reduced. In addition, my pores are reducing in size and I have a cleaner, healthier feel to my face. Also it has cleared up my psoriasis! I have been fighting this disease with 80% success since my childhood (about 20 years) and never completely got rid of it. Until applying your cream for 3 weeks. THANK YOU - you don't know how good this makes me feel... Marc Sherry. Zurich. Switzerland.

Your product truly delivers what it says it can do. I have never found anything (and I tried ALOT of things) that could heal my face as well and quickly as your product. I had doubts when I first purchased it, but it has definitely performed (and so beautifully) above and beyond my expectations!! Send me some more! Karen M Gensheimer. IN, USA.
