Most
over the counter body care products have many of these ingredients in them.
These ingredients cause cancer, skin irritations, birth defects, allergic
reactions, and do harm to the Earth when rinsed down into our water supply1.
Check your packages for any of these ingredients prior to purchasing them.
If you're unsure, contact the company and ask for the (Material Safety Data
Sheets). These sheets should be available, or at least accessible.
They will tell you if the ingredient is potentially hazardous. Still
not sure? Send us an email and we'll check it out for you and/or
recommend products that are safe. There are some things that aren't
available on our website, so we are more than happy to let you know about
other companies who share similar concerns and offer products accordingly.
