You wouldn't lick the subway floor would you? Or drink Windex? Then why would you slather toxic chemicals on your body?
Think of your skin as one big tongue. That's right. As much as 70% of what you put on your skin gets absorbed into your bloodstream. So when you're applying lotion with synthetic fragrances and preservatives, a.k.a toxic chemicals, it's no different really than eating them.
Next time you reach for a bottle of lotion, ask yourself could I eat this? If the answer is no, don't apply it.
Here are better alternatives:
Pure Shea Butter
Unrefined Coconut Oil
Aloe
