Why These Swaps Matter
Conventional products often include:
- Sulfates and parabens which can dry and irritate skin
- Phthalates often hidden in fragrance and linked to hormone disruption
- Ammonia and harsh dyes common in traditional color and irritating for many
- Formaldehyde-releasing preservatives still found in some styling products
All of the products above avoid these ingredients and are selected for their gentler, cleaner formulations without sacrificing results.
