Think Dirty

Ladies – On average, women use a whopping 12 products per day (men use 6) containing 168 unique chemicals. That’s exposure to 61,300 mystery ingredients into your body every year!

If you aren’t already familiar with the Think Dirty app for your Smartphone, get familiar.

Did You Know Innersense™ Beauty Products are Free of Harsh Irritating Chemicals including: 

  • Logo 300W

    Artificial Color and Fragrance— Proven to be the most prevalent sensitizers (cause of allergic reactions or chemical sensitivities) in cosmetic preparations.

  • DEA, MEA, TEA, or MIPA Compounds — These are synthetic surfactants used in soaps and many shampoos. These ingredients are allergenic, and may also be contaminated with nitrosamines, a potent class of carcinogens. They’re on the FDA’s list of suspected carcinogens.
  • Formaldehyde — A suspected carcinogen, this colorless, pungent, irritating substance is found in many preservatives, such as quaternium-15, the hydantoins and ureas, and surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate.
  • Hydrolyzed Animal Protein — Innersense products do not contain any animal by-products and were not tested on animals.
  • 1,4 Dioxane
  • Imidazolidinyl and Diazolidinyl Urea — These commonly used preservatives are antiseptic and deodorizing. They have been established by the American Academy of Dermatology to be primary causes of contact dermatitis (causing adverse reactions such as rashes that can be quite severe). Keep clear of the eye area, as it is an eye irritant.
  • Lanolin —Cosmetic-grade lanolin can be contaminated with carcinogenic pesticides such as DDT, dieldrin, and lindane, in addition to other neurotoxic pesticides.
  • Methylchloroisothiazolinone and Methylisothiazolinone — Sensitizers, these are known to cause allergies.
  • PEG-8 (polyethylene glycol) — This synthetic detergent is on the FDA’s list of suspected carcinogens, and according to the FDA is “highly allergenic.”
  • PEG compounds — These synthetic plant glycols are used as binders, solvents, emollients, plasticizers, bases, carriers, emulsifiers and dispersants. They cause many allergic reactions. PEG compounds may contain the carcinogenic contaminant, Dioxane.

  • Sulfate-based products — Sulfates are used in the manufacture of synthetic soaps, detergents, emollient creams and shampoos (like sodium lauryl and laureth sulfate). Sulfates are harmful to marine life and the environment. They can cause allergic reactions and dry skin and hair. They are also an eye irritant.
