From time to time the toxins in our world and everyday products make the news! Here's a few of them. Claires:
Just because it’s on the shelf doesn’t mean it’s safe. Asbestos in kids make up recalled another reason to be a conscious consumer. Remember the FDA is working with only 1.5 pages of legislature written in 1938 to regulate your beauty products.... News Article
Cleaning Products:
Because cleaning supplies tend to have a whole lotta crazy toxic stuff in them! This is not surprising. And it’s tragic! I’ve got a whole toxin free community of people over in The HOMEFRONT Community with a variety of much safer options if anyone needs ideas or is feeling their body burden increase from all the hand sanitizer and disinfectants society has been using lately. Joelle and I also recently did a DIY foaming hand soap demo in there!
What’s your favorite toxin free (there’s a difference from non-toxic mind you) cleaning solutions?
Haircare:
News like this article is so frustrating to me because so many of us (I was one of them) trust that if it’s on the shelf and sold in stores that it has to be safe???
What about the accumulative effect of small does of these carcinogenic stuff in our bodies? Or the byproducts of reactions like 1-4 dioxane and formaldehyde that don’t get listed on ingredient labels and yet they show up in 60% of kids bathtime products when tested by third parties??? (Let me know if you are a nerd like me and want to see the study on this I can send it to you it’s quite disturbing).
This stuff gets me all fired up! Ok end rant….
