“Things of great beauty demand no attention” What are you really putting onto your body? Think about all the cosmetics you use in a day, they include toothpaste, face creams, make-up, soap, deodorant, hair conditioner, lip balm, sunscreen, body lotion, shaving products and the list is exhaustive. And what about your children? On any given day you might rub, spray, or pour some combination of sunscreen, diaper cream, shampoo, lotion, and maybe even insect repellent on their skin. Most of us use these products without a second thought, thinking that they can’t be that harmful as surely the government must certainly be policing the safety of the mixtures in these myriad containers. Unfortunately there are no strict policies in place when it comes to these nasty chemicals and toxins – and if you take the time to research the products you currently use you will be shocked what you discover, many loads more.
