Sedona, Arizona (PRWEB) December 12, 2013
Founded by Alicia Lyons, Natural Nail Care Expert, Bella10 is quickly becoming one of the leading Arizona organic products on the market today after receiving a toxicity ranking of 1 from the Environmental Working Group. Lyons has been in the nail care industry for over 30 years and is the author of The Secret to Beautiful Natural Nails. Bella10 products can be found in several Northern Arizona retail stores including: Crystal Magic in Sedona and Chocolate Blonde Salon in Cottonwood.
The Bella10 nail and skin care line was developed in 2012 with the goal of creating a vegan product that would promote healthy skin and nails. Always keeping in mind the fact that over 60% of products topically applied to the body are actually absorbed by the body, Alicia focused her efforts on creating a lotion that would be as natural as possible. “Bella10 skin care is like food for your skin, rich in Amino acids and vitamins A, C, D and E,” expresses Lyons. “No one wants to eat petro-chemicals or parabens.”
The Bella10 signature product, Crème de la Bella, was designed to be a very lush yet all natural lotion that leaves skin hydrated and smooth with no greasy feeling. Crème de la Bella was recently reviewed by the Environmental Working Group and received 1 for product purity, 0 being water up to 10 being Formaldehyde (EWG rating for Creme de la Bella Hand & Body Lotion). Bella 10 uses a blend of organic butters and oils to help to maintain the precious elasticity of skin, as well as an array of natural vegan botanicals that eliminate free radicals while soothing and rejuvenating skin. All ingredients used in the line are naturally derived and never test on Animals. Bella10 products are also Petro-Chemical, Paraben and Phthalate free.
Lyons realizes that most individuals may not fully understand the importance of natural body care and the significant impact it can have on the human body. She believes that to properly care not only for outside appearance but inside as well, people really need to take a moment to reflect on their daily habits and how the environment that they are constantly being exposed to may be affecting them. With the ever increasing awareness of the carcinogens in the air and how skin is constantly absorbing them, customers can trust in the quality and purity of one of the finest organic lotions in Arizona.
About Bella10: Bella10 strives to bring personal and professional Natural Nail care knowledge to a whole new level with one of the finest organic lotions in Arizona. For more information, visit: http://bella10.com/.

Why You Should Consider Natural Ingredients in Your Skin Care and Cosmetics



I’ve known about this for years, but if you haven’t heard the horror stories, you should know more about what is in your beauty products.  It doesn’t matter if it is some form of Paraben, Phthalates, or a Petro-Chemical, none of them are good for our bodies.  What most people don’t realize is that 60% of what you put on your body, ends up in your body.
Let’s start with Parabens.  Whenever you can, avoid products that contain methylparaben, propylparaben , n-propylparaben, or anything that has paraben in the name.   According to the BreastCancerFund.org, “Parabens are a group of compounds widely used as antimicrobial preservatives in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics products, including underarm deodorants. Parabens are absorbed through intact skin and from the gastrointestinal tract… Measurable concentrations of six different parabens have been identified in biopsy samples from breast tumors (Darbre, 2004).”   Did you catch that? They said “through intact skin”!  Parabens have been found in breast cancer tissue and your body absorbs it through intact skin.  Many times it can be through deodorant but it is in your body lotions too.

Phthalates are found in large group of common products that include cosmetics,  plastics, baby care products,  pharmaceuticals, cleaning materials, etc.  Phthalates are hormone disruptors and a known carcinogen.  One of the most widely known ingredients to the nail industry is Di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP).  If you remember DBP is one of the ingredients that have been removed in nail polishes that are considered “Three Free”


Petro-Chemicals are derived from petroleum.  When you look at the ancient Greek etymology of the word Petroleum, it means “rock oil”.  Petroleum products can generate 1,4-dioxane which is a known carcinogen and can also cause harm to the kidneys, respiratory system and is a neurotoxicant.  


If you go back to the rule, “60% of what you put on your body, ends up in your body”  and we all know that our bodies process food and water.  This, when placed on the skin can be processed by the body, but non-food/non-water will be processed as a toxin.  If your body can recognize it as a possible food group, then your body will take what it needs and dispose of the rest as it does naturally, anything else will be processed as a toxin.  The best way I can recommend a product is if you can recognize the ingredient by a common name, it is better for you than if it is not.  Weigh out the ingredients to see how much sounds like a natural ingredient. Do your research .  And remember, 60 % of what you put in your body, ends up in your body.  If your body can look at the ingredients like a food group, you are doing well!
