an interesting article to share..i'd followed this since year 2006 and as a concerned consumers, i'm too fussy to buy cosmetic or skin care..and I'm sure out there, many people do not realize it. One of that is...
"... colognes and body sprays market their scents with terms like “floral,” “exotic,” or “musky,” but they don’t disclose that many scents are actually a complex cocktail of natural essences and synthetic chemicals – often petrochemicals. Also in the ranks of undisclosed ingredients are chemicals with troubling hazardous properties or with a propensity to accumulate in human tissues. These include diethyl phthalate, a chemical found in 97 percent of Americans (Silva 2004) and linked to sperm damage in human epidemiological studies, and musk ketone, a synthetic fragrance ingredient that concentrates in human fat tissue and breast milk.."
Hmmm ... scary, and a lot of cosmetics sold out there...guess what? For more information, you could visit this website
