Pressbox (Press Release) -
Natural skincare specialist Myroo has welcomed new research into the safety of parabens believing it will reopen debate into the controversial ingredient and its effects. The research published in the journal of applied toxicology by the team at Reading University, headed by Dr Philippa Darbre found evidence of parabens in 99% of the cancerous breast tissue samples examined. The research, published this month, did not find any direct link between the synthetic preservative and breast cancer but did call for further investigation into the use of parabens.
Rachael Dunseath of Myroo said concerns about parabens had led to huge growth of the natural skincare industry as more people looked for paraben-free alternatives. gThe link between cancer and parabens has not been conclusively proven, but evidence is mounting and consumers are becoming more aware of the potential risks. Myroo offers a range of skincare products that allow customers the choice to avoid parabens without compromising on performance or luxuryh.
Rachael Dunseath, who founded the company in 2009, firmly believes that natural skincare doesnft have to mean compromising on luxury. She said: geWe are aiming to fill a gap in the market for natural but desirable skincare and we are also committed to hand-making our full range, which we believe gives our products a unique appeal.hf.
