The job of acne skin care products to help normalize shedding into the pore to prevent blockages from occurring, killing the Propionibacterium acnes, and reducing inflammation. There are a number of different compounds that are used for “curing” acne, with the most popular compound being benzoyl peroxide. Let’s take a look at what benzoyl peroxide acne formulas actually have in them.
I won’t mention the name, but I am going to describe for you the ingredients present in one of the top selling lines of anti acting formulas on the market. A couple of the ingredients in these supposedly safe, healthy formulas that caught my eye were triethanolamine, methylparaben, and propylparaben. It is funny to me that there is no mention of these ingredients on the warnings label.
All three of these ingredients in these supposedly high quality acne skin care products are known to cause cancer, and triethanolamine is such a potent carcinogen that it is restricted in Europe. None of these ingredients have the ability to help your skin in any way, and the roles that they play could be handled more effectively by plant based compounds. You find these carcinogens in your products due to the fact that they are inexpensive.
