Blacklisted Ingredients

So many products we use in our daily lives have ingredients that can cause cancer, gut issues, hormonal issues, and reproductive problems to name a few. This is a list of known blacklisted ingredients you don’t want in your face creams, lotions, perfume, soaps or deodorants. Our skin is our largest organ and when we slather it with these poisons they are absorbed quickly into our system.
