The words "natural" or "natural" does not necessarily mean that the agent consists only of components found in the woods or in the field. For example, a bottle labeled "organic" must contain at least 95% organic ingredients. Those agents that are marked with "natural" or "made with organic components" may well contain harmful substances.

4. Choose Daily Conditioner
Sulfates - ingredients in shampoos, which form a good lather -have a very mixed reputation. Many experts, beauticians and doctors recommend to avoid any shampoos with the foaming agent sodium laureth sulfate and ammonium laureth sulfate as the main ingredients. Why is that? Laboratory studies have shown that products that end up on the "floor" (for example, sodium laureth sulfate, polyethylene glycol, Oleth, myreth and ceteareth) have tested positive for 1, 4-dioxane - a petrochemical carcinogen.
5. The best moisturizers - oil
