We talk a lot about marketing trickery over on the Living Elan Podcast and how you can start to learn how to read ingredient labels! Remember, just because a brand claims to be clean, does not mean they don’t have proven hormone disruptors in their products.
Here are the top ingredinets to stay away from in your self-tan (though the list could go on....)
1️⃣ Chemically Derived DHA: Can leave a bad odor and be harsh on your skin. Opt for plant-based DHA instead. 🌱
2️⃣ Artificial Dyes (Red No. 40, Yellow No. 6): Potential carcinogens and hormone disruptors—your glow doesn’t need them! 🚫
3️⃣ Parabens (Butyl, Propyl, Isopropyl): Mimic estrogen and can disrupt hormones over time.
4️⃣ Fragrance: This one word can hide up to 3,000 undisclosed chemicals—if it’s not naturally sourced, skip it. 🕵️♀️5️⃣
