We know about hormone patches, estrogen patches and so forth, testosterone patches.

They work.

Nicotine patches, things get absorbed through your skin.

So be aware what you put on your body goes in your body.

So the hidden toxins are things like parabens, phthalates, fragrances, formaldehyde releasers.

They all affect you in many different ways from hormone disruption to migraines to skin issues to

irritating your immune system, causing immune issues.

And there's easy swaps, right?

Go get the fragrance-free products or essential oil-based products.

I'm on the board of the Gnomeral Working Group, or EWG.

There's a great app called Skin Deep.

You can go on the website, you can use the app.

and you can scan products, you can search products, and you can see how they stack up.

So, EWG does a great job, not just, by the way, for skincare, but for household cleaning products, for food, for any kind of thing you can imagine they have looked at.

So, and also, just use fewer products, or just pick a few that are really well-made, that you know are religiously made without toxins, and that are good for you.

I use WeLena products, I'll use

Tom's toothpaste.

I use just products that I know are safer or better.

I don't have any affiliation with them.

So remember, if you wouldn't eat it, don't put it on your body.
