Only 42% of natural skincare products are actually natural, says new study

Justyna Rostek, beauty director of Guniot Earlsfield, commented: “I think the terms ‘natural’ and ‘clean’ should be banned altogether when it comes to product labels.”

Dr Maria McGee, natural skincare and wellness expert, commented: “[This study] did not mention cocamidopropyl betaine, which is a very significant cause of allergic dermatitis and is present in almost all ‘natural’ shampoos and shower gels. This is particularly important for the children’s skincare market.”

@isalonsoftware: “Great piece – ‘Salon owners: tips on how to charge what you’re worth’ This is something we’ve been advocating for a long time. Your clients recognise your value, you should too. In the words of a well-known advert – ‘you’re worth it!’”

@arapioltd: “We read the article ‘Are silent treatments in salon a good idea?’ and we think they are an essential thing to offer. Clients sometimes think they ought to chat. Therapists need to let them know that it’s absolutely fine to simply chill during the treatment. It’s all about what the client wants and needs #goodmentalhealth #clientjourney

This month we asked you…

Do you think you have a good work-life balance?

Brits don’t research beauty treatments enough, says study

Natasha Dobby, aesthetic nurse and owner of Cherry Blossom Beauty, Thornaby, commented: “I think where aesthetic treatments are concerned, people don’t do enough research and end up with poor results – that’s what I’ve found from a number of corrections I’ve done anyway. Or they’ve seen an offer and booked in knowing nothing about the practitioner or their background.”
