Jojoba Oil

Extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant, jojoba oil is an excellent addition to any beauty routine. With its potent antibacterial and emollient applications, jojoba may be used to treat acne, psoriasis, and hair loss. Plus, it hydrates both the skin and your mane, leaving you with soft locks and lasting smoothness.

Parabens

As the most widely-used preservatives in cosmetic products, chances are you’ve come across parabens in your beauty routine. And, while they help to keep your favourite goods fungus and bacteria-free, they have been linked to breast cancer.

Look for products that avoid parabens and choose natural options instead.
