This episode I get into a few of the top Dirty Dozen list of ingredients you really do not want in your personal care products.  I also tell you where you can find them and how they can potentially cause disruption to your health.  For the comprehensive list, go here (this is where most of my research came from and David Suzuki is a very reliable resource!).

Here are are few ingredients I talk about and to watch for in your products:
- BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole)
- BHT (butylated hydroxy toluene)
- PPD (phenylenediamine)
- DEA (diethanolamine)
- DBP (dibutyl phthalate)
- Formeldehyde-releasing preservatives like methenamine, diazolidinyl urea
- Parabens - methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben
- PEG (polyethylene glycols) - petroleum-based
- Siloxanes - these ingredients end in "siloxane" or "methicone"
- SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) or SLES (Sodium laureth sulfate)
- Fragrance or Parfum - this is the TRICKIEST one of all - many many ingredients can be thrown in this one category.  ASK the questions of the manufacturer!
