The parabens, sulfates and phthalates commonly found in mainstream beauty and bath products all have been linked to harmful side effects.
Parabens are widely used as preservatives in most beauty products. These substances can disrupt the endocrine system (hormone regulation) and, alarmingly, were found in the breast cancer tumors.
Sulfates used to create lather have been shown to strip color and oils from hair and also to produce eye and/or skin irritation. Sulfates in skincare are particularly bad for those with sensitive skin and painful skin conditions, such as eczema and psoriasis. When exposure is high, there is a concern for reproductive disruption, cancer and neurotoxicity.
Phthalates are used to stabilize fragrance in beauty and personal care products. These substances have been found to disrupt the endocrine system and several more have been linked to reduced sperm counts and more. It is believed that baby boys and pregnant women are most at risk.
