Let’s look at the list of ingredients of products that are used in the home and that we apply to our skin that contain toxic chemicals and are harmful to our health.
On average, a woman applies more than 300 toxic chemicals per day through personal use products. “80 of these chemicals are applied before breakfast.”
(example: soaps, body and hair products, makeup, etc …)
Oils and products of Young Living have ingredients such as Lemon, Tangerine, Oregano, etc. Which means that they do not contain additives and dubious ingredients.
