Where the #3(( Did This Rash Come from?

People are starting to find themselves breaking out in poison ivy like rashes when there has been no known exposure.  The fact is it could be caused by something people are willingly rubbing all over their skin every day.  It turns out that a preservative used in many commercially available soaps, methylisothiazolinone, may be to blame. 

“Methylisothiazolinone which is the body care industry's version of "meth," is manufactured into many products, including hair products, laundry detergents, cleaning supplies, sunscreens and facial cosmetics. It's everywhere in modern body care concoctions, and it's not doing the skin any good.”   In some cases, the people affected have suffered from unexplained rashes for years before a dermatologist determines the cause.  And the solution is as simple as switching to natural bath products.

“The chemical preservative is practically a poison and causes a painful itchy and blistery rash similar to poison ivy.”  And, these same products may even be causing nerve damage.  Other countries such as Japan and Canada have already taken steps to protect their citizens from the effects of methylisothiazolinone by placing it on the restricted list for personal care products.

We all know soap can be drying and irritating but the chemicals in soap may be doing far worse.  We are rubbing chemicals onto our bodies known to cause rashes and even nerve damage.  We owe it to ourselves and our families to protect ourselves from the potential harm by choosing natural products.

Consequently, we recommend our products if you’re looking to avoid harsh chemicals and ingredients that are causing unwanted skin problems.
