In this video, we’re going to talk about why you should never put commercial bar soap on your face.

The average store-bought bar soap is likely the reason why you need to apply lotions, creams, serums, and moisturizers to replenish your skin moisture after a shower.

Here are the toxic ingredients you can find in commercial bar soap:

1. Sodium lauryl sulfate or ammonium lauryl sulfate
• Synthetic foaming agent
• Causes irritation, inflammation, and dryness
• Can be contaminated by other chemicals

2. Parabens
• Act as a preservative
• Kill friendly bacteria
• Have an estrogenic effect
• Contribute to dermatitis

3. Formaldehyde
• Prevents growth of friendly bacteria
• Carcinogenic (increases cancer risk)

4. Synthetic fragrances
• Petroleum-based
• Can cause skin irritation

5. Triclosan
• Antibacterial
• Increases risk of E. coli and MRSA

6. Coal tar dyes
• Coloring agents
• Made with petroleum chemicals
• Can cause dry skin

When I was growing up, I had severe acne. So I scrubbed my face with a bar of soap daily, hoping it would help—and it only made things worse. I had no idea about the toxic chemicals lurking in the ingredients. Had I known, I would’ve bought a bar of soap with fewer dyes, fragrances, and harmful chemicals.

Learn from my mistakes and always choose a product with natural ingredients and essential oils.
