Can skincare products really mess with your hormones? Let’s talk Endocrine Disruptors

You’re reading labels, choosing “natural” products, and doing your best to take care of your skin, and your body. But have you ever thought about how your skincare products might be affecting your hormones?

It’s not just wellness hype. It’s real. And it’s something we take seriously at PRÍ PEAR™.

So, what are endocrine disruptors?

Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that interfere with your body’s hormonal system. They can mimic hormones (like oestrogen), block them, or change how they’re made and used in the body. Over time, this disruption can mess with everything from your thyroid function and metabolism to fertility, mood, and even long-term disease risk.

And here’s the kicker: many of these hormone-disrupting chemicals are hiding in everyday skincare products.

Yep. That “fragrance” in your moisturiser? Might be a blend of synthetic chemicals. Preservatives like parabens and phthalates? Also endocrine disruptors. Even your packaging might be leaching these nasties into your products.

Why it matters

Your skin absorbs what you put on it. And while your body is wonderfully smart at detoxing, constant exposure to hormone-disrupting chemicals over time? That adds up.

This issue has gained a lot of attention recently, and rightly so. More people are connecting the dots between what they put on their bodies and how they feel. Hormonal acne, thyroid imbalances, unexplained fatigue, your skincare routine could be part of the story.

Where PRÍ PEAR™ stands

We don’t mess around when it comes to clean ingredients.

Our prickly pear seed oil is 100% natural, cold-pressed, and free from all endocrine-disrupting chemicals. That means:

Skincare that supports your body, not works against it

Your skin deserves better. So do your hormones.
