I didn't give much thought to the ingredients in my skin care products until I started to notice a significant change in my skin texture. My skin became so sensitive, dry, and irritated; I used to have a glowing soft skin. Long story short, I tried many mainstream products with no success.
I decided to go on a quest to find the right products and discovered that many of the ingredients in the mainstream products actually might be harmful for our health.
