Hi I did my training with fake bake yesterday and they use paraben free products,
I think that even if we arent sure what parabens do its one less chemical that we are putting on our skin

I find this a statement a perfect example of how this whole thread (and the mis-leading aspect of parabens etc) came about, I'm afraid. How would you define a chemical?

Effectively anything that isn't an energy (light, heat etc), and therefore has substance, is a chemical.

Common examples of chemical substances that demonstrate my meaning include pure water, gold, oxygen...so even the 'most natural' purest skin treatment or solution, is effectively chemical.

The argument against a lot of the 'ingredients' that should/ should not be 'included' in many beauty industry products is often one one of mis-information from uneducated suppliers. Please don't rely on what you suppliers tells you to be the entire truth. The truth is they will tell you what suits their product....and one of the best ways to determine your suppliers product quality and therefore integrity is to go out and find out just what the ingredients are yourself. Its not hard, I assure you.

And please remember that names do differ. I see claims all the time for "100% free of this....." only to find the same ingredient under a different name, or includes 50% natural ingredients....." when these ingredients are often hidden in the 'untalked about' portion.

One of the most common examples is Dove! (To pick a non-pro example) "But it must be nice an gentle..." my clients tell me, "it contains one quarter moisturising cream" Whats in the other 3/4's I ask them? Cos it ain't nice stuff!

I've just purchased the vani-t range to use in my salon and my clients love it not only for the colour and smell but also because there are no harsh chemicals in it.
I did a lot of research on the different ingredients that tanning products contain(as I specically wanted an organic tan) and I can certainly say that vani-t is all natural or organic.
