Enhance ProAge is here with today’s tip- just what exactly are things to look for in makeup? Learn about them so they don't end up harming your skin as you use it over time.
6 Things To Look For In Makeup
We all know how much time and effort goes into making a choice on what makeup or skin care product to buy. With so many options, it can be overwhelming! But don't worry- we’ve got some insider tips that will help you make the right decision every single time without any fuss or hassle.
1. The Ingredients In The Products Affects The Quality
Do you know what's lurking inside your makeup bag? There are likely toxic ingredients that could be hazardous to our health, so it pays off for us to not only read labels carefully but also do research on unfamiliar chemicals before using them. Here I've listed some ways people can avoid exposing themselves too these potentially harmful pollutants:
- Use fewer products or buy products with shorter ingredients lists
- Use products that have organic certification or certification with a recognized organization that promotes nontoxic products
- Check all labels carefully and look up any unfamiliar ingredients
Some of these ingredients serves to make the product shelf life longer, this means that your makeup will last longer. However, that doesn’t mean its a good thing, especially if these products contain formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. These types of preservatives do not have a good reputation and, unfortunately, they are a lot more common than you think and is in a lot of cosmetic lines. Chemicals like sodium hydroxymethylglycinate, Diazolidinyl Urea, DMDM hydantoin, quaternium-15, and methenamine are just some ingredients in your makeup to avoid. Enhance ProAge doesn’t allow these toxic ingredients to be included in our products, that you can be assured of!

2. The Use Of Natural Ingredients
Consumers who are health conscious and want products that won't harm their skin may find natural options more limiting than manmade ones. For example, parabens can be found in many foods as well as personal care items like deodorants or shampoo; however they're also an ingredient of toxic chemicals which could result from mimicking estrogen levels during breast cancer growth cycles ( according to this study).
If you want to be safe, going green is the way to go. The Environmental Working Group has compiled a list of hazardous chemicals that may come into contact with your personal care items and cosmetic products if they're not careful enough when making them! Some of these are:
- Fragrance - includes phthalates which disrupt endocrine system, very alarming indeed as it’s very common to spot as an ingredient to staple makeup products.
- Hydroquinone - found in a lot of moisturizers is a neurotoxin.
- Lead - common “hidden” ingredient in lipsticks is a neurotoxin
- And I bet you didn’t know this – Mercury is used as a cosmetic preservative hidden under the name: thimerosal which is linked to increased rates of autism.
We can assure you Enhance ProAge doesn’t use these harmful ingredients on our products!
3. Does The Products Tests on Animals?
Enhance ProAge is excited to share that we DO NOT test our products on animals, our firm belief that every life here on our planet should be respected and be treated as an important part in our ecosystem. Now why should product testing on animals be a huge factor in buying makeup? Let us tell you why.
There are many reasons why cosmetic companies test their ingredients or products on animals, but a primary reason is due to legal liability and consumer safety. The use of animals in testing can be based off an outdated theory that animal responses will accurately predict what happens when humans come into contact with substances they're exposed to - though this has been debated by modern day researchers who think otherwise because there's no way for them actually know how humans react internally differently than other species do.
A second popular motive behind conducting tests through labelling tradition rather then advancement driven innovations might stem from industry preference towards historic methods which offer greater certainty regarding results versus newer ones available today.
Makeup and skincare companies can create innovative products without the need for cruel and unnecessary animal testing, as evidenced by brands that utilize human cell-based tests or sophisticated computer models. These new methods often produce more reliable results than outdated ones such as rabbits in labs running around being pokeacked every which way imaginable; it's not just costlier but also less effective!

4. High Price Doesn’t Always Mean High Quality
It seems like no matter how much you spend, there is always something cheaper. But when it comes down to beauty products and what's in your makeup bag or vanity, quality matters most! If companies were more transparent with their ingredients then we could find out which ones really work for us - rather than just accepting whatever they put into products without question because"it says premium."
A person who knowsledges about these things can tell that spending less money on skincare isn't necessarily going get better results- actually sometimes a cheap indie brand that costs less than a popular product on the market is more effective.
Why?
The beauty market has seen its fair share problems from shady marketing tactics leading people down wrong paths and making them believe that with “rare” ingredients meant only for one product, to production costs being sky high due mostly towards require costly raw materials, so when shopping around make sure these factors influence you on your choices. Find out what works for you even though it’s cheaper and from a not so well known brand.
5. Where Was It Sourced
As a company, it is important to us that we never compromise on the quality of our ingredients. We want you not only feel beautiful in your own skin but be able enjoy what's inside as well! We believe that the best beauty brands not only make you feel beautiful in your own skin but are also ethically produced. Raw materials such as ingredients for making products come from all over the world, some harder to find than others depending on what they want or need which can be quite costly when sourced locally at first glance because of how expensive these raw products really get! Additionally though using local suppliers is one big reason behind success within this industry- it's just become so important across industries with rising demand by consumers.
The best beauty brands care about more than just your skin. They work hard to find ethical sourcing of raw materials and manufacturing processes, which ensures you know what goes in the products to produce something that won’t harm you or the environment.

6. Product Packaging
Planet-conscious brands make their beauty products with the environment in mind. They empower women and support and promote environmentally sustainable packaging that uses biodegradable and recyclable materials and use non toxic ingredients to produce these packaging! The beauty industry generates tons waste with packaging that contaminates our planet while also harming people's health-- Planet conscious brands aim on reducing this negative impact by using safer ingredients free from toxins like parabens (toxic chemicals) and more!

Key Takeaway
With so many animal-conscious brands out there, it's hard to know which ones are worth checking out. Some of these companies offer products that aren't just cruelty free but also non-toxic and vegan - meaning they do not contain any harmful ingredients derived from chemicals and animals at all! Brands like Enhance ProAge even go as far in their sustainable packaging efforts by using environmentally friendly materials for the outer shell instead or cardboard boxes full other throw away items such paper towels and plastic baggies among others.
Choose a brand that you’ll be proud of whenever you take it out in public, recommend it to your friends and share it on social media!
