Have you ever wondered what’s hiding behind the word “fragrance” on your skincare or beauty product label? Or what’s giving your lip balm that sweet taste labeled as “flavor”? It’s time to uncover the bad-smelling truth behind these vague terms and understand why transparency matters when it comes to the products we put on our skin and lips.
The mystery of ‘Fragrance’
“Smells great,” you might think when you open a new skincare product. But have you ever questioned what’s actually making it smell so lovely? Here’s the kicker: “Fragrance” is a blanket term that can legally conceal a multitude of ingredients. But you, as a consumer, should have the right to know what’s in the product you’re applying to your skin, right? After all, it’s your body.
‘Flavor’ in lip products
The same issue extends to lip balms, scrubs, and serums. The term “flavor” might sound innocent, but it can hide a cocktail of ingredients, some of which you might not want to ingest. Your lips are delicate, and you should be aware of what you’re putting on them.
Why it’s important to know
Knowing what’s in your skincare and lip products is more than just a matter of preference; it’s a matter of safety. Hidden allergens or irritants could lead to unpleasant reactions, especially if you have pre-existing skin conditions. By being informed, you can make choices that align with your skin’s needs.
Why transparency matters to us
At FISIKA, we believe in full transparency. We don’t hide behind generic terms like “fragrance” or “flavor.” All our ingredients are fully disclosed in the ingredient section of our products. When we say transparency, we mean it.
No Hidden Ingredients, Only Benefits
The truth is, we don’t use ingredients just for their scent or taste. We carefully select ingredients for their actual active properties and how they can benefit the skin. We understand that some people have allergies or sensitive skin, and they deserve to know exactly what they’re applying.
The next time you shop for skincare or lip products, keep an eye out for vague terms like “fragrance” and “flavor.” Demand transparency and opt for brands that disclose their ingredients fully. At FISIKA, we stand by our commitment to transparency, ensuring that you know exactly what you’re putting on your skin and lips. It’s not just a matter of preference; it’s your right as a consumer to make informed choices.
