Did you know that what goes on your body is just as important as what goes in your body? Did you know that what you put on your body will absorb and end up inside your body anyway? Why I think big bath companies is basically the devil 😈
The average American female uses more than 300 harsh synthetic chemicals on her body a day, and 80 of those are before breakfast! Gift sets full of lotions, bath bombs, make up, perfumes etc are sold in all the stores. Targeting women and now young girls. In an effort to smell good and impress, men, and even our boys are using synthetic fragrances. We wonder why so many of our boys and girls are going through puberty at younger and younger ages, why they’re having hormone problems, emotional melt-downs, migraines, weight fluctuations, etc? The list can go on and on and on. These products are full of harsh TOXIC chemicals that disrupt the endocrine system. The endocrine system regulates hormones, metabolism, s*xual development, and reproduction. The toxins in these products are wreaking havoc on our bodies and our Young men and women are using them all day everyday.
No! Just no! They are worth so much more than that! I’ll be damned if I keep my mouth shut about this epidemic because if it changes just one family, then it is worth it.
Take a look at the ingredients on the back of your favorite bath/shower gels, lotions, perfumes, and cosmetics. Google the ingredients. The toxins don't discriminate. It doesn't matter if you purchased your favorites at B&BW, Target, or Neiman Marcus. Toxins are toxins. Most of these products are filled with carcinogens and endocrine disrupters. I have three daughters and two sons. I want grandbabies. I want them healthy and happy long term. My Littles are still little Littles, and right now it is up to me what happens to their little bodies! Their health is just as important to me as my own is, if not more. They don't have a say yet, so it is up to me to make sure that I am making the very best decisions for them and that I am doing what I can to teach them what is good for their bodies and what is potentially harmful.
Read the attached post below that explains each of the ingredients in the product below.
Our skin is our largest organ. The ingredients get absorbed into our bloodstream within 26 seconds, & even quicker for kiddos who will absorb up to 50% more than an adult would as their bodies are still growing. Toxic exposures will put a child at higher risk for disease(s) later in life.
I know those beautiful gift sets & marketing can reel you in, but please watch out for yourself & your loved ones! ❤️
So many ingredients to avoid...
🚫Butylene Glycol: found in anti-freeze, brake & hydraulic fluid. It can also be called Propylene Glycol. Skin irritations, weakens skins cellular structure, causes brain, kidney, and liver abnormalities
🚫Isopropyl Alchohol: may cause premature aging of skin. Also found in anti-freeze. It strips skin of natural acid mantle which promotes growth of bacteria. It can cause headaches, flushed skin, dizziness, nausea & vomiting, & mental depression according to A Consumer’s Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients.
🚫Tetrasodium EDTA: contains formaldehyde & a known skin & lung irritant. Breaks down the skins natural barrier which allows higher absorption of toxic ingredients.
🚫BHT: this fragrance has been linked to organ system toxicity & a known skin, eye, & lung irritant
🚫Disodium EDTA: neurotoxin linked to brain damage & liver changes in animals
🚫Diazolidinyl Urea: this chemical releases formaldehyde into your body. Mayo Clinic says formaldehyde can irritate the respiratory system, cause skin reactions, trigger heart palpations, immune system toxicity, & cancer in humans. Exposure may cause joint pain, depression, headaches, dizziness, loss of sleep, chronic fatigue, ear infections, allergies, & chest pains. It can also trigger asthma & aggravate colds! Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen found in Johnson and Johnson baby care products, skincare, antiperspirants, & hair dyes.
🚫Methylparaben & Propylparaben: directly linked to breast cancer. In mice it had estrogenic effects which caused damage to the s***m formation in the te**es. It may contribute to sterility in males, hormone imbalances in females, and cause early puberty. A relative of methylparaben, sodium methylparaben has been banned in the E.U. Some other common names for paraben’s are ethyl-, butyl-, & isobutyl- all ending with paraben. These do not have to be labeled, so sometimes companies will not list within ingredients panel.
🚫Linalool can cause adverse skin reactions & is used for cockroach insecticide.
🚫Ceterareth-20: ENHANCES the absorption of ALL above chemicals.
