Petrochemicals are derived from petroleum, coal or natural gas. Petrochemicals are such ingredients as fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol and synthetic preservatives.

Petrochemicals are chemicals derived from petroleum or natural gas. Materials are obtained from crude petroleum in one of two ways. The materials may be present in the crude oil and are isolated by physical methods, or they are synthesized during the refining operations. Some common petrochemicals that have health concerns are dioxins, phthalates, SLS, DEA, TEA and formaldehyde. The main objective in producing chemicals from petroleum is the formation of a variety of well-defined chemical compounds, including (1) chemicals from aliphatic compounds; (2) chemicals from olefins; (3) chemicals from aromatic compounds; (4) chemicals from natural gas; (5) chemicals from synthesis gas (carbon monoxide and hydrogen); and (6) inorganic petrochemicals.

Petrochemicals used as raw materials include ethylene, propylene, butadiene, benzene, toluene, xylene, and naphthalene. Petrochemicals can cause allergic reactions and skin irritation. Petroleum products do not absorb into the skin well so they smother the skin and can keep it from functioning properly while other petrochemicals can absorb through the skin right into the bloodstream. Among the myriad of petrochemical products are plastics (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene), soaps and detergents, solvents, drugs, fertilizers, pesticides, explosives, synthetic fibres and rubbers, paints, epoxies, flooring and insulating materials, luggage, and recording disks and tapes. It is important to continue efforts to be less dependent on petrochemicals and using natural skin care products free of these synthetic chemicals is an easy way to make a change.
