# Hong Kong’s consumer watchdog has found 38 out of 60 shampoo samples it tested contained a harmful solvent used in manufacturing, with seven exceeding the limit recommended by the European Union.#
It seems getting common nowadays to see the news like above. Day in day out, we are using cosmetics and toiletries after wake up till before sleep eg. toothpaste, facial wash, body shampoo, shampoo, conditioner, facial cream and etc...
Hence it is important to be a wise consumer in choosing our toiletries.
How can we be a wise consumer in choosing our toiletries ?
The concern is not on the use of SLES , but how it is being processed , such that the harmful byproduct can be removed.
Same for Talc. It's used widely in baby powder , cosmetics etc.
Talc by itself is perfectly safe to be used .
The danger arise when talc is contaminated by asbestos ( which the 2 quarry , often exist near to each other)
When such contamination , harmful byproducts exist in our toiletries , our health may be harmed in the long run.
For me, I started using Elemente toiletries and skincare about 10 years ago , and same for my family.
Be a wise consumer not only in choosing food, but on our personal care toiletries too.
Because toxic cancer causing (carcinogenic) chemicals is everywhere - from the air we breathe, the food we eat and the personal care toiletries we use on our hair, skin, and in our mouth. They may be contributing to the spiralling rate of cancer and metabolic disease whilst speeding up aging process too.
