I am so happy to have come across the article that is posted below! Its been 30 years since anyone made any complaints about the harmful chemicals that are used in everyday beauty products. Although I am glad that the awareness is growing, its a problem that has been in existence for far too long. At the same time, while these "beauty companies" are to blame so are we. We need to be more cognoscente of what we are putting on our skin and in our hair. If we as the consumer are willing to buy it, why would they (these corporations) not continue to use these ingredients. Chemicals such as formaldehyde, mercury, and lead have all been found in lotions, face creams, deodorants and hair products. Diet and exercise are important and so is this.
I really hope that you take the time to read the article below.
