The Overlooked Organ: Why Skincare Matters More Than Ever
We are living in the age of well-being—where there’s a supplement for nearly every organ, illness, or injury. Yet, we often overlook our largest organ: our skin.
Essentially a sponge, our skin absorbs everything we put on it—often without us realizing the potential harm. Just as we wouldn’t knowingly ingest harmful chemicals for fear of damaging our bodies, we should be just as mindful of what we apply to our skin.
A Safer Approach to Skincare
At OURLYFE, we are committed to steering clear of harmful chemicals. Our products are toxin-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, and made with natural ingredients—all while using sustainable packaging that won’t harm our skin or disrupt our delicate hormonal balance.
The Hidden Danger of Hormone Disruptors
Our hormone system is one of the most delicate in the body, regulating reproduction, immunity, metabolism, and even behavior. Yet, hormone-disrupting chemicals lurk in many everyday products—from cosmetics and detergents to packaging and pesticides.
Dr. Shanna Swan, a professor of environmental medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, has extensively researched the detrimental impact of plastics and chemicals on fertility. She warns of the dangers of phthalates, commonly found in personal care products, which make plastics soft and flexible. According to Dr. Swan, these chemicals lower testosterone, decrease libido, and increase the risk of early puberty, premature ovarian failure, miscarriage, and premature birth.
This may sound alarming, but awareness is key. That’s why, at OURLYFE, we ensure our products and packaging are phthalate-free, paraben-free, sustainable, and safe—so you can take care of your skin without compromise.
The Problem with Microplastics in Skincare
Another major concern is microplastics, which are commonly used in exfoliating skincare products. Due to our skin’s porous nature, these microplastics break down our natural barrier against infection and burrow into our bodies.
The good news? This is entirely avoidable. By making conscious choices in formulation and packaging, we can protect both our health and our planet.
