Your Body Absorbs Cosmetics


Did you know that the average woman absorbs over 4 pounds of cosmetics into her body each year? It's true. According to Planet Green, the body's largest organ, the skin will absorb up to 60% of the products you put on it each day. That includes soaps, shampoos and even sunscreen. Look at the ingredients list on your soaps, shampoos, and cosmetics and it might just scare you. It might even make you want to look for natural hygiene and cosmetic items. By the way, men are at danger too. They do put things on their skin.
