A small digression into the world of cosmetics. I am interested in the news that a large manufacturer of cosmetics - Johnson & Johnson has committed to eliminate cancer-causing chemicals from its products. Promised that by the end of 2005 changed the global composition of products for children and adults. They had intended to find a safe alternative for:
Formaldehyde-releasing preservatives (antimicrobial preservatives are carcinogenic, toxic to the immune system, blood, cardiovascular circulation and skin) - completely excluded kittel from products for adults
1,4-dioxin (produced as a by-product of a lot of other components and products, it is contaminated, immediately penetrates deep into the skin and it is assumed kittel that it is also a carcinogen) - reduce its presence kittel in products for adults kittel for a maximum of 10 parts per million
Mega producer kittel of cosmetics Johnson & Johnson blew it in November 2011, replacing the carcinogens formaldehyde and 1,4-dioxin in products kittel for babies by the end of 2013. Has achieved the American campaign for safe cosmetics after years of pressure and dialogue with Johnson & Johnson. It is the first swallow in improving the composition of the products towards the consumer demands. Hopefully it will be followed by another giant company manufacturing cosmetics.
But please, do not run a right to buy their products! They are partial concessions that will hopefully go further by seeking safe alternatives to chemical cocktail.

Aluminum compounds are used in antiperspirants, for slowing the accumulation of sweat. Associated with breast cancer, kittel Alzheimer, are neurotoxic. But why give it to the soap? At night I dreamed that the lift pieces of aluminum foil soap ...)
