Use fewer products to reduce the number of chemicals your skin comes in contact with every day.
- Read labels carefully to make better buying choices.
- Use milder soaps to reduce skin dryness and the need for moisturizers to replace lost oils.
- Minimize the use of dark hair dyes, which may contain cancer-causing ingredients.
- Cut down on powder use to avoid inhaling ingredients that have been linked to lung problems.
- Choose fragrance-free products. In products truly free of fragrance, the word “fragrance” will not appear on the ingredient label.
- Reduce use of nail polish. It is advisable to paint your toenails, but skip the fingernails. Paint your nails in a well-ventilated room.
