The Best Paraben Free Face Washes
What are the best paraben free face washes for normal skin?
Cleaner ingredients and paraben free beauty products are becoming high demand with good reason. So many of us are becoming more and more educated on the possible repercussions of not caring what we apply to the largest organ in our body, our skin. Parabens are starting to get words like “cancerous” and “hormone disruption” labeled to it. Who wants to risk it? Not me!
Paraben free vs. Chemical free
There is a difference between “paraben free” and “chemical free”. Some of us don’t like the idea of parabens and just want something a little cleaner. While others are all about the toxin free, organic, natural everything. I have something for both views, whichever side of the court you’re on.
Not all of us can ditch everything we own and buy all paraben free products all at once. Replacing one thing at a time is the most cost efficient way to go and it doesn’t hurt to start with your face wash!
Here are 4 of the best paraben free face washes for normal skin
Burts Bees is one of the most convenient clean beauty brands because it’s so readily available in stores like Walmart and Target. Using a cleansing oil as a face wash will not only greatly improve your skin ( I’ve been incorporating oil cleansing into my skin routine for a year now and don’t know how I lived without it) and you can feel good about it being free of Parabens.
S.W Beauty goes with a less is more approach to skincare. With only 3 ingredients, you have a very gentle basic face cleanser. A lot of consumers raved about it helping with acne prone skin and others loved that it didn’t irritate/dry out their sensitive skin. They pride themselves in only using sustainable organic ingredients that are fair trade or sourced from family farms.
Pure biology got a lot of amazing reviews for being a great cleanser for men and women. Perfect for all skin types, this is a well rounded formula that hits aging, acne prone, and dry skin. This formula is rich in antioxidants which reduces inflammation and helps prevent breakouts. It also has proline and hyaluronic acid which helps reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles by holding in moisture to the skin, improving skin elasticity, increasing collagen production, skin repair and regeneration.
This brand prides themselves in being chemical free. No chemical preservatives, no SLS, SLES, Propylene Glycol, PG derivatives, parabens, sulfates, dyes or synthetic fragrance. I can appreciate this because this shows me they are very educated and truly care about the dangers of the chemicals that are used in your typical beauty products. There is a difference in a product just being “paraben free” and completely chemical free, and this product hits both! This cleanser is very concentrated, so the 4oz tube is equivalent to 8oz. Keep that in mind when you use it, a little goes a long way!
