Fragrance could mean up to 4000 different chemicals in your toiletries. So shampoo, moisturisers, bodywash and foam bath could include some very unsavoury ingredients. For example Phthalate a group of chemicals know as artificial musk and a real hidden danger. They can be absorbed by the skin of inhaled and will accumulate in the body. Linked to both cancer and male reproductive disorders, not something you would choose.
95% of chemicals used in fragrance are synthetic, derived from pertroleum, including Benzene derivatives. These are known to cause cancer, birth defects and many, many more unwanted side effects. The next time you buy a product to use on you skin or hair, take a minute to read the ingredients. I always look for natural oils and never buy anything with term fragrance or perfum. This is a loophole in the regulations that many of the large commercial companies use, to great effect. So the message is read carefully to avoid the hidden dangers.
