Soaps, shampoos, mouthwashes, toothpaste, moisturizers, sunscreens and deodorants are examples of personal care products that people use every day to look and feel their best. Unfortunately, most these store-bought products are often formulated with a lot of harmful ingredients.

Because of an ancient law passed in 1938 (Drug and Cosmetic Act), the FDA has little power to regulate the ingredients in personal care products. As a result, many harmful ingredients are still legally permissible in many product formulations. Companies are also allowed to label their products as "organic" or "natural" based on their own interpretations of these terms. They can even hide harmful ingredients in their formulations by listing them simply as "fragrance."

Good hygiene doesn't have to come at the expense of your family's health or even the environment. In this feature article, you will learn about 5 harmful ingredients hidden in many store-bought personal care products, as well as 6 natural alternatives that can help you look and feel your best without harming your health.
