Natural vs Conventional - Day 2 of 9
FALLACY: Natural ingredients are less likely to cause allergies and reactions.
Not only is this statement false, but natural ingredients are actually MORE likely to cause allergies than isolated chemical ingredients. Most allergies are caused by proteins, and because plants contain proteins, so do the extracts derived from them. Because plants are made of different chemical substances, when used in skin care, the skin is exposed to many more chemical components than just one isolated chemical.
