			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Confused by the title? Don\&#8217;t be, I\&#8217;ll explain, you\&#8217;ll get it. I want to consider why the best moisturizer isn\&#8217;t a moisturizer at all, and give you 4 steps to great looking well moisturized skin.</p>
<p>The best way to have great looking skin is to have healthy skin. If you have healthy skin it\&#8217;s moist, looks great and doesn\&#8217;t sag or wrinkle or feel dry, and it makes you feel good. And it\&#8217;s well moisturized, even if you didn\&#8217;t use the best moisturizer.</p>
<p>I\&#8217;ll say it again. The key to well moisturized skin is to have healthy skin. Because healthy skin is, almost by definition, well moisturized skin. If it isn\&#8217;t it isn\&#8217;t healthy. Makes sense.</p>
<p>So why are you out there looking for the best moisturizer? Why aren\&#8217;t you trying to make your skin healthy and why aren\&#8217;t you using skincare products targeted to overall skin health rather than just moisturising?</p>
<p>Other things you can do to make your skin healthier? Apart from great skin care products what else can you do to make your skin more healthy, and better moisturized?</p>
<p>There certainly is much more you can do to have well moisturized healthy skin. Here\&#8217;s 4 things you need to do to keep your skin looking and feeling great, and moist.</p>
<p>1. A good diet is essential to good health, and a healthy body makes for a healthy skin. It all goes together. You need to eat lots of fresh vegetables and fruits every single day, and your body, and skin, will be healthier.</p>
<p>2. It\&#8217;s equally important to exercise. If you exercise it makes your blood circulation better, and better circulation is important for your skin.</p>
<p>3. Don\&#8217;t smoke. Smoking is just way bad for your skin. Really bad. Oh, and sunburn is the same, just don\&#8217;t. If you smoke and get sunburned then your skin is way behind. And trying to moisturize that skin is difficult.</p>
<p>4. Use the best skin care products that are targeted to improving overall skin health as well as improving skin moisture by way of better skin health. There is no point in just moisturizing. You\&#8217;re after great looking skin and moisturizing is only a part of it.</p>
<p>Would it surprise you that there is one natural skin care line that improves skin moisture better than any moisturizer, and isn\&#8217;t it isn\&#8217;t a moisturizer at all? It\&#8217;s a range of skin care products that are targeted to improving skin health but use ingredients that are some of the best natural moisturizers there are. But if you search for the best moisturizers you won\&#8217;t find it, because it isnt\&#8217; a moisturizer.</p>
<p>So the best facial moisturizer isn\&#8217;t really a moisturizer at all. And remember, there\&#8217;s way more you can do to improve your skin than just using the best moisturizer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is it possible that your moisturizer is dangerous? Dangerous? Isn&#8217;t that a silly question, why could moisturizers possibly be dangerous? Aren&#8217;t they just intended to moisturize our skin?</p>
<p>Unfortunately there are many petrochemical and chemical ingredients found in many moisturizers as well is many other products such as bath and beauty products and cosmetics. 2 examples are sodium lauryl sulphate and mineral oil.</p>
<p>Many of these chemical ingredients are used in so many of our personal products such as moisturizers because they are extremely cheap. Many are manufactured in laboratories. Mineral oil is so cheap that it actually costs less to buy it than to dispose of it.</p>
<p>If you visit the website of the Environmental Working Group you will see that they maintain a database of information about all of the chemical and petrochemical ingredients used in our personal products such as moisturizers. This database is called the Cosmetic Safety Database and it&#8217;s perfectly possible for you to search it to discover many of the health risks of so many of the chemical ingredients used in moisturizers and other skin care products and others.</p>
<p>If you search sodium lauryl sulphate at the Cosmetic Safety Database you&#8217;ll see that it is linked to cancer, organ system toxicity, developmental and reproductive toxicity, neurotoxicity skin irritation and more. You&#8217;ll see similar concerns if you search mineral oil.</p>
<p>These results are backed up by scientific studies. For example a recent study that you can read in the Journal Of Investigative Dermatology was called &#8220;Tumorigenic Effect of Some Commonly Used Moisturizing Creams when Applied Topically to UVB-Pretreated High-Risk Mice&#8221;. Researchers in this study found that if they applied a moisturizer containing sodium lauryl sulphate and mineral oil to mice 5 times a day for 17 weeks this &#8220;increased significantly the rate of formation of tumors and the rate of increase in tumor size per mouse&#8221;.</p>
<p>And it was also interesting that the researchers, (who were very surprised at the results because they were actually studying to see if caffeine caused skin cancer in mice) decided to ask the manufacturer of the moisturizer to manufacture another moisturizer without mineral oil or sodium lauryl sulphate. And when tested this further moisturizer showed no effect at all on the tumor formation or the tumor growth in the mice.</p>
<p>If you examine the search results at the Cosmetic Safety Database when searching either of these chemicals, (or any other of a wide range of chemical ingredients found in modern anti aging products such as moisturizers), you will see all of the studies relied on in the results quoted are there for you to reference.</p>
<p>Although it may never have occurred to you there is a wide range of health risks that you may be exposed to because of the use of chemicals and petrochemical ingredients in modern moisturizers and other anti aging skin care products, it is clear that the health risks exist.</p>
<p>Does this mean that you should swear off moisturizing? Should you avoid all anti aging skin care products altogether or is it possible to find moisturizers and other anti aging products that do not expose you to the health risks which you are exposed to by using so many of the products manufactured by the big brands? Not at all.</p>
<p>There are small niche companies which recognize the problem with mainstream chemical laden anti aging skin care products and see this as an opportunity to manufacture safe and effective skin care products containing none of the chemical ingredients that are commonly found in mainstream skin care products such as moisturizers.</p>
<p>The anti aging market is massive and there are billions of dollars at stake and it is extremely difficult for small companies like this to compete with the big brand names, but they do so by differentiating themselves by producing safe and effective natural skin care products that will produce the results you want without risking your health. These companies do not use the chemical alternatives used by so many of the big brand-name manufacturers despite the fact that these chemical alternatives are much cheaper.</p>
<p>It may take longer to find but if you manage to track down some of these natural skin care products, one range in particular, and try them you will be very pleasantly surprised at the results you get. Firstly you won&#8217;t be risking your health because they use only known safe ingredients and secondly you will find that the products are extremely effective. But it can sometimes be difficult to find these products because the small niche companies that manufacture them cannot compete with the big brands on television advertising and so do not advertise on television at all.</p>
<p>So although it may come as a shock to you the bad news is that modern big brand in care products such as moisturizers may well contain dangerous ingredients but the good news is that there are excellent natural alternatives available. There are natural skin care products which use only known safe and highly effective ingredients and these work well without risking your health.</p>
<p>On my website about natural skin care I try to alert my readers to these problems and point them in the direction of safe are more natural alternatives such as natural moisturizers and other natural anti aging products. Visit my website to find out more.</p>
