Ingredients to Avoid

     Although some products claim to be "all-natural" and contain only safe ingredients, there may be dangerous chemicals hiding on the back of the bottle. Here's a list of ingredients to avoid, especially in lotions. Your skin will thank you!

Methyl, Propyl, Butyl and Ethyl: may cause irritating rashes and may be linked to breast cancer
Petroleum Jelly: can clog pores
Synthetic Fragrances: can cause headaches, dizziness, and respiratory problems
Propylene Glycol: causes hives and eczema
Imidazolidinyl Urea: causes dermatitis

     Watch out for these chemicals when reading the ingredients labels on beauty products. Avoid them and opt for more natural products.
