In a quest to remove as many toxins from my life, I've slowly begun swapping out commercial products for homemade or store-bought alternatives made with non-toxic ingredients.
And now that summer is upon us, I know folks will begin stocking up on summertime essentials to protect them from the heat and stay hydrated and smelling fresh when they're outdoors for hours.
I used to do the same thing. Until I started paying attention to the ingredients on the labels. Or at least those that are listed. The cosmetics & personal care industry does not have to disclose all their ingredients (like fragrances). That means lots and lots of chemicals.
