Safe Cosmetics - The Better, Natural Alternative to Chemical Cosmetics



What are You Putting on Your Skin? Cosmetics and Health Risks,
These days we eat food that is contaminated with pesticides, drink water contaminated by chemicals, eat meat from animals treated with cancer inducing growth hormones and even breath air saturated in poisonous car exhaust fumes.
As if this situation could get much worse we even cover ourselves with cosmetics and products that contain yet more dangerous chemicals and additives.


Read the ingredients of most cosmetic products and you will find a long list of chemicals many of which are regarded to be toxic.
Many chemically produced skin care products actually do the opposite of what they are supposed to.
Moisturisers that dry your skin, anti-ageing creams that can increase ageing in skin and sun screens that increase damage from the sun. The result of using these product? You need to buy more products to try to repair the damage done.
So, while the debate goes on about why not switch to using natural cosmetic products?
There is always a natural alternative to the industrial, chemical-laden cosmetic products found in our stores. Many of these are even less expensive than the big-name products stocked on most supermarket shelves.
Argan Oil is an excellent alternative to a chemical moisturiser packed with vitamins and nutrients to moisturise and repair naturally. 
Hair conditioners that are full of chemical substances and that have little permanent effect can be repalced with an all natural hot oil hair treatment, such as our Hair Magick natural hair serum.
Unlike the chemical products natural skin care products actually work.


3 Easy Steps for Guaranteed Healthier and Younger Looking Skin.
1) Moisturise daily using a natural anti-ageing moisturiser natural product. Cosmetic Organic Argan Oil is ideal for this.
2) Use a clay based mask weekly oily skin. Every 10 days for normal skin. Fortnightly for sensitive or delicate skin. Clay will gently draw toxins from the deeper layers of the skin. Get a high quality Calcium Bentonite Clay. You may need to mix a little Argan Oil with this to stop the clay mask from drying too much. Use filtered or mineral water when mixing the clay paste using a wooden utensil to mix with.
Moisturise with Argan Oil after clay masks as they can be dehydrating.
3) Drink at least 1 liter of water a day - (filtered or mineral water).


Dealing with skin problems is explained in detail in the e_Booklets available our www.arganoildirect.com 




Top Ten Most Harmful Chemical Additives
Used in Cosmetic Products.
Cocoamidopropyl betaine oils
Found in foaming cleansers, they are synthesised with ammonia and a toxic herbicide! These chemicals can cause eye and skin irritation.
Sodium lauryl/laureth sulphate
Chemical ingrediants that dehydrate and inflame skin and separate the skin layers.
Sorbolene
Added to mosturisers.It coats the skin like plastic and stops elimination of toxins.
Glycerine is a cheap ingrediant that draws the skin’s natural moisture from the deeper layers in humidity below 65%. So it is doing the exact opposite of what the moisturiser is supposed to do! One of the many products where the more you use the more you seem to need! Now isn't that a coincidence.
Paraffin
Lip balms are a good example of a product that needs constant reapplications, never improving the skin on the lips.
PEG - (polyethylene glycol)
This, widely used chemical, changes the natural moisture of the skin and can make it vulnerable to bacteria. PEGs have also been associated with liver and kidney damage. 
Oxybenzone
Found in sunscreens & moisturisers containing sunscreen. It is a skin sensitizer and a increases UV penetration.
It oxidises in light and inactivates natural protective antioxidant systems in the skin increasing damage of DNA under UV light. Oxybenzone is also a hormone disruptor. Where pregnant women were exposed during pregnancy it has been suggested that this can cause and increased chance of a feminised male baby and low birth weight female babies. Oxybenzone has been detected in human urine and milk.
So why is this used in many sunscreens? 
Butylene Glycol
Petro-chemical, often cause contact dermatitis. Studies show the potential to produce mild skin and eye irritation, as well as endocrine system alterations. There are also reproductive, brain and nervous system effects.
Retinal Palmitate
This is a very common chemical added to most anti-ageing products despite that it is restricted in Canada.
This chemical is supposed to reduce fine line but decomposes under UVA into chemicals shown to cause mutations in mouse lymphoma cells. Is photo toxic- will cause skin ageing and DNA damage.
Ceteryl alcohol
Causes mild irritation and contact dermatitis in some users.
Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA)
It is suggested that AHAs may cause the skin to age more rapidly and increase the risk of skin cancer. This may be due to their action in removing the outer layer of skin. This in turn can increase sensitivity to sunlight and increase the ageing affect of the sun. A report into the AHA glycolic acid said that the sensitivity of human skin to sunburn may be increased by as much as 50 per cent in some individuals.
Parabens
Perhaps one of the most common chemical additives in all cosmetics has possible links with the occurence of breast cancer.
Parabens are used in cosmetic and skincare products as a low cost preservative. They extend a products shelf life. Parabens have also been traditionally favoured for their bactericidal and fungicidal effects. Almost all commercially used parabens are synthetically produced. Parabens are estrogen mimickers. An study in 2003 looked at the antiperspirant and deodorant use of 437 breast cancer survivors. It found that women who used these products and shaved their underarms more frequently developed breast cancer at an earlier age. It is important to note that this does not prove conclusively that the use of antiperspirants and shaving caused these breast cancers but some scientists feel that the correlation is enough to warrant more research.

Natural Drug-Free Arthritis Treatments and Argan Oil

A Natural Approach to Treating Arthritis
Argan oil has a reputation for being of help in conditions such as Arthritis. The culinary oil is an excellent food supplement packed with G.L.A., Anti Oxidants, and anti-inflammatory nutrients the cosmetic oil is said to be of value when used as an external massage oil.
We received suggestions and feedback about natural treatments for Arthritis on a regular basis and have decided to put some of these into this e_Booklet which we will build on more research is received.
We are not medically trained or qualified and the claims made for some of the treatments suggested have not been verified. However, much of this information is quote well known and tested. Where available we have listed further reading which may also be of interest.
If you have an interest in trying Argan Oils as a supplement for a treatment you can contact us directly for a special price on our Argan Oils.
If you would like to add any further suggestions to add to this document please contact us at contact@arganoildirect.com

The cause and cure of Arthritis, whether rheumatoid or osteoarthritis, has baffled the medical profession. Doctors prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs and painkillers and tell patients they must learn to live with the disease.
The side effects of these drugs can often be serious. Theee arthritis drug Opren (Oraflex in the US) was withdrawn from the world market in August 1982 following British reports of deaths and serious liver damage in people taking thdrug. Since 1980, when Opren was first introduced in the UK, there had been 3,500 reports of harmful effects with 61 deaths, mainly in elderly patients.

No Drug has ever cured, or ever will cure, a true case of Arthritis, wrote Dr Hay Dr William Hay who conceived the Hay Diet. In his book A New Health Era (Ponoco Haven, 1939 ).

There are many contributing causes of Arthritis:

  • Injuries to the body
  • Abuse of the body through drink and drugs (legal or illegal !)
  • Allergic Reactions
  • Infections
  • Stress-Exhausted Adrenal Glands
  • Vitamin D deficiency
  • and more............

The end result of most of the underlying causes is a deranged body chemistry.

A main cause can be an accumulation of acid end products and as Dr Hay identified, every organ and tissue depend on the Alkaline reserve.
It is interesting to note that in times when hyper acid-forming fast-foods and fizzy drinks are being consumed in ever vaster quantities that many diseases are becoming ever more common.

Dr. James Lambert Mount, author of “Food and Health of Western Man”, described how he had successfully treated 100 people suffering from Arthritis. They were put on a diet aimed at changing the body from an Acid to an Alkaline state, by giving up red meat, flour and sugar and concentrate on salads, fruits and organ meats. There was an average 80 percent success rate varying from “considerable improvement” to “complete cure” .


A Nutritional Supplement Approach
Argan Oil + SAMe

SAMe:You may have heard about SAMe in the media, the new natural antidepressant... and more.

Anti Inflammatory SAMe, or s-adenosyl-methionine is a naturally occurring substance in the body. Numerous clinical studies have shown that SAMe can reduce pain, stiffness, and inflammation associated with degenerative joint problems. When compared to the common anti-inflammatory medications, Naproxen and Ibuprofen, SAMe did an equally effective job in reducing pain and inflammation over a three month period, and without the gastrointestinal damage caused by these drugs.

Clinical studies show SAMe works well in countering the fatigue, inflammation and pain associated with fibromyalgia, a puzzling and hard to treat condition.

Support of Liver Function: SAMe aids the liver in neutralizing toxins, free radicals and carcinogens. Because of SAMe's effects on the liver, it enhances the elimination of various drugs from the body. SAMe has also been shown to protect the liver and body from the effects of excess and unbalanced estrogen levels, seen in some estrogen replacement therapy, oral contraceptive use, and premenstrual syndrome.

Safety:In general, the longer SAMe is used, the more beneficial the results. It can be used safely during pregnancy and nursing. There are no reported negative interactions with other medications or nutritional supplements antidepressant activity may lead to the manic phase in individuals with bipolar (manic) depression. Though not reported in the literature, higher doses may lead to anxiety even in non-bipolar individuals, and if such should be lowered and/or discontinued.

How to Take Same Cofactors: To avoid conversion of SAMe into high levels of homocysteine, known for its increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease, you should also be taking the cofactors, vitamin B6 (50 mg), vitamin B12 (1000 mcg), and folic acid (800 mcg), to enhance production of the SAMe precursor, methionine. This is most easily taken as part of a multivitamin, preferably with food, and not necessarily along with the SAMe dose.Dosage: SAMe should be taken on an empty stomach, preferably 1 hour away from food, starting at a dosage of 200 mg once or twice daily. If results aren't seen in a few days, the dose can be increased again, up to 800 mg daily if needed. Most often, 400 mg per day is sufficient.

Since SAMe is unstable at higher temperatures, it should be kept refrigerated whenever possible. Enteric coated tablets have generally been used to ensure stability.

Note: This information is not intended to treat, diagnose or cure any disease and this information has not been reviewed or approved by the FDA. But then lets not forget that the FDA have approved cancerous chemicals such as Aspartame and Aceulfame-K for use in food.



Argan Oil
Argan has long been used in Morocco as a natural treatment for the relief of the symptoms of Arthritis.

Both forms of Argan Oil are used.
Cosmetic Argan Oil is used for external massage oil where it is warmed and then the affected joint if gently massage.

Culinary Argan Oil is eaten and used like a nutritional supplement.
Approximately 1 to 2 tablespoons – 15ml to 30ml per day is suggested.
A rate of consumption of around 1 litre to 2 litres every 2 months.

Argan Oil is very rich in anti oxidants, Antioxidant flavonoids and Tocopherols which are involved in many activities including: promoting good circulation and acting as a natural anti-inflammatory.
Argan Oil is also rich in other nutrients that could contribute to its effects on Arthritis. In particular anti-inflammatory Saponins and Triterpenoids. Recent research has discovered four "Arganine" Saponins only found in Argan Oil .
It is possibly significant that Argan contains triterpene alcohols.
Triterpenoids are biologically active substances. The major constituents of the triterpenic fraction of argan oil include butyrospermol ( 18%) an anti inflammatory.

These possible this is linked with Argan Oil's traditional reputation for alleviating Arthritic pain.
If you are interested in trying culinary Argan for a nutritional supplement as part of a treatment plan should contact us for a special price for 1 litre quantities of Culinary Argan Oil.

PH Balance
The PH diet offers a natural treatment for arthritis. The theory of an acidic or alkaline balance in the body was first put forward by Dr William Hay who conceived the Hay Diet. In his book A New Health Era (Ponoco Haven, 1939).
What is the pH Diet?
The pH diet is more about achieving an alkaline state in the body. By careful eating, the pH Diet helps the body achieve a more alkaline balance.
How to Lower Inflammation in the Joints?
In orthodox medicine, inflammation of the joints is treated with anti-inflammatory drugs such as Diclofenac and ibuprofen. However, the inflammatory response of the body can be lowered naturally by a change in diet.
Foods that can Provoke Arthritis?
Acid-forming foods provoke inflammation in the joints because the acids they produce irritates the condition. 
  • Red meat
  • Dairy produce such as cows milk and cheese
  • Alcohol, coffee and fizzy drinks such as cola
  • Too much chocolate
  • Burned, barbecued, roasted and fried food, particularly those cooked in hot and burned fat
  • Highly-processed food and junk food

Are any Acid-forming Foods are Healthy?

Yes. for example nuts (not roasted) and seeds, Oats,Chicken, turkey and fish,Eggs,Pulses and lentils,Wheat-free bread and cereals.

However if you are would like to look further into Alkaline diets to treat Arthritis you should purchase a good book on this subject.

Books that we would recommend include:
The PH Miracle” – by Dr Robert O. Young and Shelly Redford Young
Food combining for health” - by Doris Grant and Jean Joice This book offers an interesting approach to solving problems such as Arthritis. It discusses the advantages in the correct combination of foods and drinks to improve digestion and health.

Celery
Celery juice has proved invaluable in dissolving and removing years of accumulated acid deposits in the cartilage of Arthritic joints. The the book “the Home Herbal” Barbara Griggs recommended celery seeds for Arthritis and rheumatism because their high alkaline value helps to counteract acid formation in the blood and clear it out of the system.

Lemon Juice
Lemon juice has a strong alkalising effect on the body.
You should already be making sure that you are drinking at least 1 and a half litres of mineral water per day.
However the benefit of this can be greatly enhanced by adding the juice of a half to 1 whole fresh lemon diluted in each large glass of water.
Lemons are known to be acidic BUT, rather surprisingly, the fruit has a powerful opposite, Alkalising, effect on your metabolism.
For a short course aim to use around to 2 or 3 ( preferably Organic ) lemons a day or whatever you feel you can tolerate. This can be drunk either as a hot or cold. Add some kind of natural sweetener if you need to but try to avoid adding to much sugar.
Recent research also suggests that adding a half teaspoon of Turmeric Spice in a large glass of water with lemon juice will also be of help.
Lemons are known as a liver tonic and natural antiseptic; the juice of a lemon will destroy harmful bacteria found in cuts and areas of infection. Studies claim lemon juice helps to prevent osteoarthritis, diabetes and the development or progression of atherosclerosis.

Food and Drink that will Alleviate the Symptoms of Arthritis
Alkaline-forming food will gradually lower the inflammatory response of the body by leaving an alkaline residue in the body after being metabolised. These include:
  • Lemons / lemon Juice - Mineral water, green tea
  • Most fruit and vegetables. Raw is more alkaline than cooked.
  • Herbs and spices - Soya produce
  • Raw oils, such as flaxseed - Almonds
  • Wheat alternatives such as spelt and buckwheat

Apple Cider Vinegar
Arthritis, which affects nine million people in Britain, is an inflammation of the joints and its causes are not clear.

Hills believed arthritis is caused by the body building up acid, which crystallises and lodges between the joints. The acid crystals become surrounded by fluids, causing swelling, soreness and stiffness. So Hills concluded that the condition would be alleviated by cutting down on acid entering the body.

"By controlling the amount of acid going in through diet we aim to increase the alkaline resources in the body that cause the crystals to break down," says Horner.

"The overall effect of apple cider vinegar and honey is alkalising and helps to create the right environment in the stomach to start off the digestive process."

Gall decided to follow the regime strictly - it meant avoiding alcohol, cutting out foods with refined sugar and any citric fruit, as well as taking cider vinegar, mixed with honey, hot water and molasses, after every meal. This was combined with vitamin supplements - including A, B, magnesium and calcium - and a hot bath in Epsom salts.

After a week, Gall began to feel much better and, after a couple of months, she is "pain-free and totally mobile" and can continue to play the church organ. She takes daily exercise but says that the arthritis creeps back as soon as she stops the regime.

British actor Sir Ranulph Fiennes first tried cider vinegar and honey after developing bad arthritis in his hands and his hip 23 years ago. He did so after seeing the transformation in his mother, Lady Audrey Fiennes, who suffered from arthritis in the lower back. She had turned to the natural remedy when she was 86 and was bed-ridden due to her condition; the family had even contemplated moving her into a care home. "Six months after starting the treatment my mother's arthritis started getting better," says Fiennes.

Detoxifying
The natural state of our bodies is to be healthy. How could we have evolved other wise. Unfortunately unhealthy lifestyles and eating habits and pressures of modern life can easily wreak havoc on our systems.
The liver is responsible for cleaning out harmful waste from our system. However, over time, foods and lifestyle can damage the liver cells and impair its function.
There are a number of commercially available Liver detox courses that you can buy containing elements such as Black Radish and these can be a good starting point.
To get your system back on track on of the best solutions is to undertake a Vegetable juice fast. This should be done with care and consideration to your current state of health. In all cases a short 3 day fast can achieve good results.
A simple fast detox.
All you need to this is a Juice extractor. Centrifugal extractors are cheap and easy to find. You can also buy a “Macerating” extractor which is much better but a lot more expensive – it has the added advantage of being able to process leaves and grasses as well as extracting more juice per KG.
Good vegetables to start with are carrot, broccoli and celery. These vegetables can be juiced and drunk in combination. Celery has a strong taste and can be combined with carrot. Don't drink too much juiced carrot as the vitamin A and sugar content quite high. It is recommended to drink no more than ½ litre to 1 litre maximum in a day.
It is usually enough to juice 4 medium sized carrots and a stick of celery per drink. Preparing juices 3 to 4 times a day should be sufficient to prevent getting too hungry. You could supplement this with some Almonds, Pumpkin seeds and dates for energy. Finally try to include a litre or more of large glasses of mineral water with the juice of ½ – 1 lemon squeezed into it.
In all cases it is preferable to use organic produce to avoid concentrating the phosphates and pesticides which are usually present in in-organic food.

Exciting, new, inexpensive Anti Ageing supplement that firms sagging skin and reduce wrinkles.
In the search for an effective anti ageing program we need to take care of both the external and internal aspects of skin health.

Cosmetic Argan Oil is an effective external mosturiser that can slow ageing of skin but what about an internal programme?

The most common way to improve the health of our skin or general health is through Vitamins and supplements.
There are thousands of of supplements all claiming a range of benefits so what are the best?

One of the most well know tried and tested supplements is Evening Primrose Oil. It is the high G.L.A. content of the oil ( the same Gamma Linoleic fatty acids that culinary and cosmetic Argan Oil are rich in) that are so beneficial for the skin and hair. Evening Primrose is known to be of great benefit to the skin and is of great help in combatting hormonal Acne in women. There is no doubt that vitamin and mineral supplements can have very beneficial effects in the skin.
However, recent research points to an exciting new use for a supplement called DMAE.
This supplement may actually help your body rebuild, thicken and refirm ageing skin for long-term improvements.

DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol) is a naturally occurring substance that not only helps skin regain and maintain its firmness, but also helps the brain - so how could it be of use in an Anti Ageing program for skin?
DMAE is well know for use in external applications but it may be that using DMAE as a vitamin supplement aids in tightening the muscles that keep your skin looking healthy by some as yet unexplained process. DMAE may actually address the root of the problem and help reverse muscle sagging.
We decided to try this out by including DMAE and Alpha Lipoleic Acid supplements in a 45 day test. 
Each day our testers followed a regime of moisturising with Argan Oil in the morning and taking a supplement of:

2x200mg DMAE with Alpha Lipoic acid  PLUS wide-spectrum high quality vitamin and mineral supplement
( In addition the male members took an additional 2x300mg of a Saw Palmetto supplement)
After 45 days our testers agreed that there was a noticable improvement in skin firmness and thickening -particularly under the eye and across the cheek bone area.
We would be interested to know if you have tried DMAE and have any feedback.

If you want to try this treatment course and have problems finding DMAE, Alpha Lipoic Acid or Saw Palmetto you can find them at this U.S. supplier:

DMAE 250 mg 60 capsules: K
Elastin & DMAE Night Cream 1.5 oz.: K
Alpha Lipoic Acid 100 mg 60 capsules: K

New Anti Ageing Vitamin supplement that firms sagging skin and reduces wrinkles
Everybody loves the sunshine. Some of us are lucky enough to live in the warmer climates others look forward to that holiday in the sun, relaxing on a beach working on a tan.
But while it's great to enjoy the sunshine the sun is perhaps the single greatest cause of premature ageing of the skin and also damages our hair.
Worse still, increasing natural UV radiation, combined with the current fashion for sun-bed tanning and the desire a tropical sun-tan, mean that we are prematurely ageing their skin at an ever faster rate.

So is there a solution? What if we could find a blend of natural products that would allow us to get a rich, tropical tan with minimum sun exposure – even those of us who don't tan easily?
Better still if this product could actively repair the “micro-burn” damage caused by the sun rays and further harness the sun's energy to nourish our skin,activating a a flood of Vitamins, Anti-oxidants and fatty acids that will moisturise and renew our skin.

At Argan Oil Direct we have been working on a carefully balanced blend of naturally occurring plant and nut oils that to do just that.

Is it possible then to repair and rejuvenate your skin while enjoying the sun and getting a great tropical tan?

We think so!


Introducing Sahara Gold
Sahara Gold Anti-Ageing Tanning Oil, by Argan Collection is the world's only all natural, chemical-free anti-ageing and tanning oil.

Sahara Gold Tanning Oil was created by building on the knowledge gained from our years of research with pure Organic Cosmetic Argan Oil.

We finally achieved our aim by blending Argan Oil with other exotic oils which build on Argan Oil's skin renewal properties to produce the active Anti-Ageing and Tanning formula.

So what are the main components that make up Sahara Gold?

Organic Cosmetic Argan Oil
Argan Fruit Nut Cosmetics OilAs you will have read in our free e_Booklets - ( available on request from our website at www.arganoildirect.com ), preparations that include Argan Oil have long been used in traditional Moroccan medicine to help cure skin problems.

As a cosmetic, the oil is traditionally indicated to cure all kind of skin inflammations, reduce scarring and sun burn damage and slow down the appearance of wrinkles.

A large body of opinion now considers that 'free radical' damage is one of the main process by which cell damage occurs as we age.
This may be partly prevented by ensure a good supply of anti-oxidants.

Tanning Oil
For local people in Hawaii natural tanning oils are the sun-tan lotion of choice.
Besides giving a tanned look our Organic tanning oil nourises the skin too. It does this thanks to the presence of medium chain fatty acids like Capric Acid, Caprylic Acid, Lauric Acid and Vitamin-E.
The stable saturated fats present in the oil cut down sun damage to a great extent by forming a protective layer on the skin. The tanning oil further contributes its anti microbial and anti fungal properties from the fatty acids present to guard skin against infections. The stable saturated fats reduce loss of moisture from skin while sun-bathing by forming a layer on the skin.
Like Argan Oil, this tanning oil is very easily absorbed into the skin. Its ingredients activate the melanin below the skin quicker and thus give you a richer, deeper tan in a shorter time and therefore less damaging UV exposure.

Mico-Burn Repair Oils
The third main active ingredient of Sahara Gold is a precious oil produced from a hard nut from the region of Polynesia.

The Organic Polynesian Oil enhances Argan Oil's own already effective burn-repairing properties to create a continuous repair and renewal effect counteracting, what is effectively, “burn” damage to your skin and hair caused exposure to UV rays during sun-bathing.
This rare oil from Polynesian also contributes its powers to sooth skin after sunburn and to help prevent redness and swelling due to minor burn damage.
