Arbonne - for your health

Lots of Arbonne going on lately! Not too much as this is not even remotely a full-time job. But my plan is to take off for the summer for the baby - gotta love residual income, getting paid even when you aren't working.

I recently was sent this article, - It just makes me so appreciative of Arbonne. Not just because of the gifts Matt and I are given because of this business, BUT because of their products and integrity. SO check this out for your health... pretty scary....

HEALTH ANSWERS

Can you tell from the labels whether cosmetics contain ingredients that may be harmful?

March 19, 2007

In most cases, no, although a coalition of environmentalists known as the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics is trying to change this, with some success.

In 2005, one of the members of the campaign, the Environmental Working Group, a watchdog organization in Washington, D.C., issued a report in which it compared ingredients in 7,500 personal care products against lists of known or suspected chemical health hazards. It found that one in every 120 cosmetic items, including shampoos, lotions, makeup foundations, and lip balms, contain known or probable CARCINOGENS.

The Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association, a trade group, said that "thousands of scientific studies have been done on cosmetics and their ingredients" and that the industry determines the products "are safe before they are sold to consumers."

Government oversight of the cosmetic industry is minimal. The US Food and Drug Administraion is not authorized to approve cosmetics before they go on the market, although many products that consumers think of as cosmetics like sunscreen and antidandruff shampoo are actually classified as over-the-counter drugs and hence must get FDA approval. In 2005, the agency said it was setting cosmetic safety as a top priority, but it has taken limited action since then.
