That shit contains "propylene glycol"

Look it up.

Propylene glycol is in tons of personal care items, like your shampoo, soap, moisturizer, deodorant, and toothpaste. You can even find it in your food and medicine. However, even though it’s a widely used chemical, a lot of people are wary of it.

Propylene glycol acts as a penetration-enhancing agent. It alters the structure of the skin, allowing chemicals to penetrate deeply while increasing their ability to reach the bloodstream.

Basically, its main job is to help other chemicals you come in contact with reach your bloodstream. But do you really want to use a chemical designed to do that?

Additionally, the chemical has been linked to cancer, developmental/reproductive issues, allergies/immunotoxicity, neurotoxicity, endocrine disruption, and organ system toxicity.

It has also been classified as “expected to be toxic or harmful” by Environment Canada.

That's why I only use dollar-store brands made in China that are full of lead and cadmium.

I use plain lanolin. A lot of the 'lipgloss' / chapstick have irritants in them to keep your lips dry so you keep using them. I have health issues that dry my skin and it is amazing the crap that goes into any moisturizer. Most of them have petroleum products which amazes me anyone would use.

I've never worn makeup and although I get a lot of crap for it, I'm also told 'I don't know how your skin looks so amazing at your age!' while the next thing out of thier mouths is 'with some makeup, you'd look so much better.'

How do you think this would affect females who begin applying cosmetic products like this on a daily basis before their brains and sexual organs have matured?

Checked all of the stuff I had, turns out all of the shampoos and deodorants I've been using all have that shit, damn. Time to switch to soap and baking soda lol.

And now you have hundreds of millions of girls lining up to watch a movie that either will make them insufferable holes or caked-up precocious sluts.
