WARNING is Your Bathroom Safe??

Are SHOCKING Ingredients Lurking In Your Home?

 Do you Read the Warning Labels on your Personal Care Products?

Your medicine cabinet may contain “potentially” toxic, harmful, poisonous, and even carcinogenic, cancer-causing ingredients and they may be in your toothpaste, shampoo, mouthwash, saving cream, skin care, feminine products, and more……..
 Many commonly used products contain potentially harmful ingredients, which are made up of very small molecules that may penetrate the skin, enter the blood stream, and build up in the liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, and tissues.

The glossy images we're fed by the media hide a dangerous secret: Most of our toiletries, even the "natural variety", are made from the same harsh chemicals used for industry".

Our ingredients are pure healthy safe ingredients that work. You will notice a visible difference and even feel different using these products!  Your health will be enhanced, by using safe ingredients as well as by not using harmful products.

  • Plant-Derived Ingredients

  • No Animal By Products

  • No Alcohol

  • No Artificial dyes

  • No Synthetic Fragrances

  • No Foam Boosters

  • No Thickeners

  • Not Animal tested.

  • No petroleum products.

  • No cheap filler ingredients.

We do use effective, safe ingredients

The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) classifies cosmetics and personal care products, but does not regulate them.  In 1938, the FDA granted self-regulation to the Cosmetics, Toiletries and Fragrance Association (CTFA), the self-appointed industry organization.

With The exception of color additives and a few prohibited ingredients, a cosmetic manufacturer may use almost any raw material as a cosmetic ingredient and market the product without an approval from FDA" ("Prohibited Ingredients", FDA Office of Cosmetics Fact Sheet, Dec. 19, 1994)

What this means is that the industry does not have to account to anyone, not even the FDA.  The direct result of industry self-regulation is that many products on the market today that we use constantly--and worse, products that we UNKNOWINGLY use on our children and even babies in the womb -- are TOXIC

Wayne Stevenson of the FDA Cosmetics Registration Section says that "The cosmetic manufacturers aren't required to submit safety data to the FDA, so we don't really know what sorts of tests they run.  When they run tests, they keep the results in their own files." ("Smelling Good But Feeling Bad", Franz et al, E Magazine Vol. 11, no 1, Jan-Feb 2000)

The FDA must prove in a court of law that a product may be injurious... before the product can be recalled.  The FDA admits they don't have the budget to win in court against the giant cosmetic companies.

The "FDA Consumer Complaints About Cosmetic Products 1999 Annual Report" lists complaints of adverse reactions to brand-name cosmetics and personal care products.  The FDA admits they probably receive only a very small percentage of actual complaints.  58% of these adverse reactions were in the dermatitis/pain/tissue damage categories, and 17% in the nervous system reactions category.  All of the named products were topical (lotions, shaving creams, toothpastes, etc (FDA Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Office of Cosmetics and Colors; "Consumer Complaints for Cosmetics Products 1999 Annual Report"  http://vm.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/costop99.html )

GRAS List (Generally Recognized As Safe") is that no one has shown it to be UNSAFE.

A "U.S. News and World Report" article published in 1998 stated "We look good, we smell good, and we have just exposed ourselves to 200 different chemicals a day, through personal care products."  Now, six years later, that number is probably more like 300....

Potentially Harmful or Cancer Causing
Ingredients and Contaminants
found in most bathrooms!
 

 Read the labels on your personal care products. You may find ingredients that are harmful or toxic. You may find ingredients that react with others to produce a harmful or toxic substance. You may find ingredients that are commonly contaminated with harmful or toxic substances. 
 The table below lists SOME of the most potentially harmful ingredients and contaminants. If you have products that contain these ingredients, you may want to look for alternatives. There are safe products available; products that have been tested by third party scientists and are guaranteed as being free from potentially harmful ingredients and contaminants. 
SOME OF THE POTENTIALLY HARMFUL INGREDIENTS COMMONLY USED IN THE PERSONAL HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY:
  • Acetone (nail polish remover)

  • Padimate-O (octyl dimethyl PABA) (sunscreens)
CONTAMINANTS; you will NOT find them listed as ingredients on any bottle

 


BE AWARE OF ... We have chosen to describe a few of the worst offenders of the thousands of toxic chemicals and potentially harmful ingredients used in personal and skin care products.  Many of these chemicals have more than one effect; some are suspected carcinogens, as well as being toxins, contaminates, skin irritants, hormone disruptors, poisons, etc.

 
Alcohol
--acts as a solvent
Found in mouthwash (which may have higher alcohol content than beer or wine), astringents and facial cleansers, some toothpastes
  • National Cancer Institute (4/22/91) states: implicated in mouth, tongue and throat cancers (women have 90% higher risk; men have 60% higher risk than non-mouthwash users)
  • on skin, strips away natural protecting oils (takes skin 24 hours to repair itself)
  • when ingested, may cause body tissues to be more vulnerable to carcinogens

Aluminum
Found in antiperspirants, some cosmetics
  • Public Health Reports, Nov-Dec, 1993 v108, #6, p.798:
    · suspected link between Central Nervous System dysfunctions (such as Alzheimer's disease) and aluminum

Bentonite or Kaolin:  Used to suffocate forest fires.  May provide a suffocating barrier to the skin

Coal Tar Dye
(esp. D&C Blue #1, Green #3, Yellow#5, Yellow #6, Red #33, phenylenediamine)
Found in shampoos, especially dandruff shampoos, bubble bath, toothpastes, hair dyes
  • can cause severe allergic reactions, asthma attacks, headaches, nausea, fatigue, nervousness, lack of concentration
    · increased risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma and Hodgkin's disease
  • The 1938 Act created a specific exemption for coal-tar dyes....The FDA cannot now ban them, even though their carcinogenicity has been recently proven." --Politics of Cancer: Revisited, page 252

Collagen
(makes skin feel artificially smooth)
Found in creams and lotions
  • Molecules too large to penetrate skin; may suffocate skin (other than that, not harmful, just useless --adds to price)
  • Some companies now make lower molecular weight collagen, which is absorbed easily (this is safe)

DEA (Diethanolamine), TEA (Tea, triethanolamine), MEA Cocamide DEA; Laurimide DEA; Linoleamide DEA, Oleamide DEA)
(solvent, emulsifier, wetting agent)
Found in most things--shampoos, conditioners, lotions, shaving gels, bubble bath, skin creams, etc.
  • US Dept of Health and Human Services' National Toxicology Program, 1997 (NTP TR 478)
  • Clear evidence of carcinogenic activity
    "Diethanolamine was selected for evaluation because its large-scale production and pattern of use indicate potential for widespread human exposure."
  • NTP requested that the FDA require a warning label on all formulations containing cocamamide DEA
HISTORY:
1979--FDA warned that 42% of all cosmetics were found contaminated with NDEA (N-nitrosodiethanolamine) which is formed when DEA reacts with nitrosating agents (may be through actual addition of nitrite as a preservative, through degradation of other ingredients or by exposure to air)
 
1991--FDA found that 27 of 29 of the products they tested were still contaminated
No way of telling if NDEA has been formed...so avoid all DEA, TEA, MEA--in 1996, the Cosmetics, Toiletries, and Fragrance Association stated that "These chemicals...should not be used as ingredients in cosmetic products."

Fluoride
(Sodium fluoride)
  • Environmental pollutant
  • May contain lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, radionuceides
  • accumulates in body
  • contributes to bone disease (American Medical Association, December, 1993)
  • carcinogen (known since 1990: shown to not reduce cavities)
Dr. Dean Burk of National Cancer Institute: "Fluoride causes more human cancer death, and causes it faster than any other chemical"

 

Dr. Hardy Limeback, Head of Preventive Dentistry at the U of Toronto and former advocate of fluoridation, has (December, 1999) come out against it.
For detailed information please refer to “The Real Facts About Fluoridation

Formaldehyde
(preservative, fixative, disinfectant)
Found in shampoo, nail care, cosmetics, also may be contaminate (not listed as ingredient)
  • suspected carcinogen
  • neurotoxin
  • may be created by the breakdown of ingredients such as 2-bromo2-nitropropane-1, 3-diol, Diazolidinyl urea, DMDM hydantoin, Imidazolidinyl urea, Quaternium 15 or Bronopol
 
You will be shocked to learn that formaldehyde is a common ingredient in baby shampoo, bubble bath, deodorants, perfume, cologne, hair dye, mouthwash, toothpaste, hair spray, and many other personal care items.
 
The following information is taken from a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) which, by law, must be supplied to anyone who uses any chemical product in the workplace.  The MSDS for formaldehyde warns: "Suspected carcinogen; May be fatal if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through skin; causes burns; inhalation can cause spasms, edema (fluid buildup) of the larynx and bronchi, and chemical pneumonitis; extremely destructive to tissue of the mucous membrane."
 
All these symptoms and more are caused by formaldehyde. Yet manufacturers can put formaldehyde in shampoo and not list it as an ingredient! (Debra Lyn Dadd, "Home Safe Home")  Some of most allergenic and irritating preservatives release small amounts of formaldehyde, which is an irritant and sensitizer as well as a carcinogen and neurotoxin.  Many cosmetic companies do not use such ingredients because they can make the eyes sting and irritate the skin.  But many companies do, and you should be able to identify these ingredients so you can avoid products containing them. 
 
The following ingredients contain formaldehyde, may release formaldehyde, or may break down into formaldehyde: (The "Safe Shopper's Bible", by David Steinman & Samuel S. Epstein, M.D.)
  • 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol
  • Diazolidinyl urea
  • DMDM hydantoin
  • Imidazolidinyl urea
  • Quaternium 15

Fragrances  (Synthetic)
Synthetic fragrances are made up of hundreds of chemicals. Some, such as methylene chloride, are carcinogenic; others can cause brain damage. Avoid unless you can be assured they are NOT carcinogenic. A scientific analysis of one very popular perfume showed it to contain a very potent neurotoxin.

Kaolin
(micro-fine clay used to suffocate forest fires)
Found in facial powders and other cosmetics
  • may suffocate and weaken skin, like bentonite

Lye
Found in bar soaps
  • may corrode or dry out skin

Mineral Oil
(makes skin feel soft and smooth)
Found in liquid foundations, blush, skin creams and baby oil; derivative of petroleum
  • suffocates and dries out skin
  • inhibits oils you produce naturally and so increases dehydration
  • clogs pores; locks in toxins and wastes
More about Mineral Oil

Padimate-O
(aka octyl dimethyl PABA)
Found especially in cosmetics, sunscreens

Petroleum (Petrolatum)
  • can't be absorbed by skin, suffocates skin
  • clogs pores, traps toxins inside

Phthalates
(plastic softener, solvents)
Found in hair spray, deodorant, nail polish, hair gel, mousse, hand lotion, body lotion, and perfume, as well as children's toys and PVC plastic. USUALLY not found on label of ingredients. 52 of 72 products tested contained unlabelled phthalates in concentrations up to 3%.
  • Shown to damage the liver, kidneys, lungs and reproductive system, especially the developing testes
  • Accumulates in organs; women 20-50 have the highest levels in their bodies
For more information about phthalates, Click Here

Propylene Glycol
(humectant--prevents things from drying out)
Found in deodorants, shampoos, conditioners, lotions, shaving gels
Material Safety Data Sheet:
  • implicated in contact dermatitis, kidney damage and liver abnormalities
  • can inhibit skin cell growth in human tests
  • can damage cell membranes causing rashes, dry skin and surface damage

 

What Others say about Propylene Glycol
 
American Academy of Dermatologists (January, 1991):
  • causes a significant number of reactions
  • irritant to the skin even in low levels of concentrations (as low as 2% concentration)
 
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, Jan 1987
  • toxic to human cells in cultures
 
Pharm. Resources, September, 1989
  • caused skeletal muscular damage in rats and rabbits
 
Human Reproduction, Feb 1990
  • alters cell membranes
 
Contact Dermatitis, 1987
  • causes thickening of the skin
 
Derm. Beruf Umwelt, Jul/Aug, 1988
  • causes skin dehydration
  • causes chronic surface damage
American Journal of Industrial Medicine 3: 169-171, 1982 ("Multiple Myeloma in Cosmetologists" Guidottie, Wright & Peters)
  • mutagenic (chemicals that produce mutation in bacteria are linked to multiple myeloma)
 
The Medicinal Post, Sept, 27, 1994
  • shown to increase beta activity (changes found in anxiety states) when inhaled
 
Journal of Pharmacology of Belgium, Nov/Dec 1989
  • inhibits skin cell growth in humans
  • inhibits cell respiration in animals
Dr. Samuel Epstein
  • may interact with other chemicals to produce hidden carcinogens (nitrosamines)
 
Judi Vance: Beauty to Die For
  • liver and kidney damage in exposed animals
  • irritating if more than 5% in formulation
 
Some people say: Different strength of Propylene glycol is used industrially and in toiletries
NOT TRUE
; only difference is that it is cleared of bacteria when used in products designed for human use (USP grade); same chemical structure
 
Some people say: Propylene Glycol is Not absorbed
False
: has a very small molecular weight, which enables it to pass easily through the skin and be absorbed into bloodstream where it travels to all our organs

Sodium Chloride
(table salt--used as a thickening agent in shampoos)
  • causes drying, itching and some hair loss
  • may cause eye irritation
  • May be listed as "from seaweed"

SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate)--
detergent derived from coconut oil (can be called "natural" or even "organic")
 
Found in toothpaste, shampoo, dish soap, liquid hand soap, bubble bath, some nutritional supplements, etc.
Journal of American College of Toxicology (Volume 2, No. 7, 1983):
  • corrodes hair follicles and impairs ability to grow hair, may cause hair to fall out
  • may form Nitrosamines when interacts with nitrogen bearing ingredients;
  • builds up in the heart, liver, lungs and brain from skin contact; may cause damage to these organs
  • denatures protein--impairs proper structural formation of young eyes;
  • can damage immune system
Dr. Epstein:

SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate)
Dr. Epstein
  • may form 1,4 dioxanes (children's products have higher levels of ethylene oxide
  • to decrease irritancy). 1,4 dioxane is an extremely harmful compound--potential carcinogen, estrogen mimic and endocrine disruptor)
  • may cause hair loss when applied to scalp
  • SLES may be removed from the cosmetics through vacuum stripping during processing; but you cannot determine which products may be contaminated without testing, and so it's best to avoid all ethoxylated compounds unless company can guarantee vacuum stripping.
Some people say: C.I.R (Cosmetic Ingredient Review Board) says it's safe based on available data
BUT:
There is now new data to show that it is not safe; many of these ingredients have never been tested (they were grandfathered in); others have been minimally tested as much as 50 years ago.

Talc (dry lubricant)
Found in baby powders, feminine powders, lubricant on condoms
Found in blush
  • carcinogen when inhaled (Phillip Day) Nutrition Health Review (Summer 1995, #73, p8(1)
  • use on condoms may result in fallopian tube fibrosis (leads to infertility)
  • 1930's linked to post-operative granulomatous peritonitis and fibrous adhesions
 
American Journal of Epidemiology:
  • 60% increase risk of ovarian cancer when used in genital areas
  • 90% increase risk of ovarian cancer when used in feminine deodorant sprays
Liquid formulations containing talc are relatively safe.

Toluene
Found in nail polish
  • endocrine disruptor, potential carcinogen
  • may cause birth defects
  • irritates respiratory tract
  • may cause liver damage
Triclosan
There have been reports of acute health effects such as skin irritation resulting from triclosan exposure. But the more worrisome health effects of triclosan are more subtle. Researchers have raised concerns about triclosan and its link to dioxins, which are highly carcinogenic chemicals that can cause severe health problems such as:
  • * weakening of the immune system,
  • * decreased fertility,
  • * altered sex hormones - hormone disrupter
  • * birth defects, and
  • * cancer.

Triclosan can be found in more than 140 types of personal care and home products

EWG identified triclosan-containing products from 3 government databases, Skin Deep cosmetics database, and 61 industry documents

Where can you find triclosan in your home?

Triclosan can be found almost everywhere.  What's shown is based on EWG's review of 65 industry documents and government databases on approved uses for this persistent, ubiquitous pesticide.

Unique Cancer Risk from Cosmetics and Personal Care Products

Dr Samuel Epstein, chairman of the Cancer Prevention Coalition, states that mainstream industry cosmetics and personal care products (CPCPs) are the single most important, yet generally unrecognized, class of avoidable carcinogenic exposures for the overwhelming majority of citizens in major industrial nations. The reason for these unique risks reflects a complex of individual and interactive factors such as:

Interaction between different ingredients: even though a specific ingredient might not be in itself a “frank” carcinogen it might be a “hidden” carcinogen that may, under certain conditions, have carcinogenic properties when it combines with other ingredients in a product.

Prolonged duration of exposure: the concern is that daily exposure, over a lifetime, of toxic ingredients, many of which are left on skin, has a cumulative negative effect.

High permeability of skin: the skin is highly permeable to carcinogenic and other toxic ingredients, especially following prolonged exposure.

Effect of wetting agents on skin permeability: the permeability of skin to carcinogens, besides other toxic ingredients, is further increased by the presence of wetting agents or surfactants, probably the most common class of ingredients in the majority of CPCPs.

Bypassing detoxifying enzyme: carcinogens in CPCPs pose greater cancer risks than does food contaminated with carcinogenic pesticides and other industrial carcinogens as they are not detoxified by the liver but reach the general blood circulation without this protective detoxification.
