Ingredients can be harmful for a variety of reasons. Some may dry out skin and cause irritation while others have been linked to cancer. These ingredients often are additive so the over-the-counter product may smell a certain way, create a richer lather or have a longer shelf life. But, as with most additives, our bodies don’t know how to process a lab’s creations. Somatic Beauty ensures every ingredient plays a positive, natural role in your body. Radiance for all.
