What is your favorite LOTION? Did you know...?!
Question: Many beauty products on the market have harmful chemicals in them; does your favorite lotion contain any of these things?:
* Mineral Oil, Paraffin, and Petrolatum – Petroleum products that coat the skin like plastic, clogging pores and creating a build-up of toxins, which in turn accumulate and can lead to dermatologic issues. Slows cellular development, which can cause you to show earlier signs of aging. Suspected cause of cancer. Disruptive of hormonal activity. By the way, when there’s an oil spill in the ocean, don’t they rush to clean it up – fast? Why put that stuff on your skin?
* Parabens – Widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic industry (including moisturizers). An estimated 13,200 cosmetic and skin care products contain parabens. Studies implicate their connection with cancer. They have hormone-disrupting qualities – mimicking estrogen – and interfere with the body’s endocrine system.

I only use Aubrey Organics on my skin. I am 60 years old and pass easily for 40. I won't even use sunblock because of the chemicals and I live in Jamaica where I swim in the Caribbean frequently. I will not put anything on my skin that I cannot put in my body -- I use Aubrey Organics for my hair, too. They are the best and do not even test on animals. ;)
