What We Put on Our Skin is Absorbed Into Our Bloodstream


Well we have all heard the debates about what types of skin care to use. Many of our mainstream products contain harmful additives, that over time can cause illness. For example, nail polish contains harmful chemicals that are known to be carcinogens. Think about this, would you allow someone to inject phthalates into your blood stream? Then we wonder why would we use it on our body?
For an informative article on cosmetics go to:

What to do about these nasty chemicals seeping into our skin? Use natural products or those with labelled organic. There are many places to get them now, such as downtown Guelph at Saffron Rouge, in our local grocery and health food stores. Some better pharmacies are now carrying natural lines too.
