Did you know...
... that "Animal Amniotic Liquid" (or the fluid that surrounds and protects a cow or ox fetus) is used in moisturizers and shampoos. It has been heavily praised for protein and vitamins. Cattle, ox or swine brain cells are also used in moisturizers.
Don't forget that...
- Fish scales are used in some glittery eye shadow...
- "Live" Sheep cells are in antiaging skin treatments...
- Beetle Carapace (the shell of a beetle) is used in red lipstick. The beetle shell is a source of carmine.
The author (Rona Berg) of "Beauty, the new basics" wrote:
"... the FDA spends only about 1% of its budget on monitoring the entire beauty industry, the industry remains largely self-regulated."
This means that fish scales and animal cells are the least of your worries. There are chemicals after chemicals placed into our daily cosmetics. Not only are these chemicals harmful to your skin. But they are harmful to the inside of your bodies, too. "What goes on your skin, goes into your blood stream..."
A good motto to follow, should be:
" If you can't eat it, then you wouldn't want it on your skin..."
