Baby's Skin
samples that you received from the hospital when your baby was born.
Their skin is 10 times thinner than yours and of course their largest
organ. Whatever is put on the skin if absorbed.
Grab those samples you got from the hospital or have stashed in your nursery, and check them against the list of toxins found in many of the top selling baby products.
Each of these items are known or suspected of causing potential health issues, according to Environmental Working Group such as I have listed in "The Dirty Dozen".
Fragrance
Isopropyl Palmitate
Polysorbate 61
Parabens (Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben)
BHT / Toluene
Mineral Oil
PEG-30 Dipolyhydroxystearate
Myristyl Myristate
Benzyl Alcohol
Propylene Glycol
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Quarternium-15
Sodium Hydroxide
Scroll down for previous post or click on the right side bar under
Helpful Information to read "The Dirty Dozen". It has been found
that all of these products have been found in at least one of the
baby products, such as baby wash, lotion and diaper cream.
If the EWG is unto this, we should really start to take notice.

Are You REALLY Getting What You Want In Skin Care?
labels carefully. For years companies have included products that
were not safe for us to use on our skin. Our skin absorbs what is put
on it. There are actually toxic products in many that we use. Even
those that we put on our babies and children. Ingredients can be
worded in such a way as to avoid telling you that there are dangerous
products included. They are not regulate, therefore they are free to
label their product in a way to entice you to use it. More and more
people are becoming aware of these hazards and are making
changes. This is the good news.
I have had a special page on this blog for a long time, however I have
pulling it up again to make sure that you see it. It is called "The Dirty
Dozen". Be sure to check out the ingredients against those that you
are presently using. I will include it below.
When you go shopping, what is one of the major things you look for?
Price - right? What does price mean to you? Just saving a few dollars
or getting what you paid for? Sometimes we don't realize whether we
are getting what we paid for without further scrutiny. Take for
example – how long does it last, and what does it do for you.
The last price list for 'over the counter' that I have includes:
Aveda $278.00
Clinique $283.00
Elizabeth Arden $407.00
Este Lauder $514.00
Guerlain $560.00
Kiehl's $193.00
Lancome $686.00
ROC $303.00
Shiseido $343.00
These prices include eye and night creams.
These prices may have gone up as this is an older piece of info.
With XanGo's (tm) Glimpse (tm) Intuitive Skin Care you get 4
products, cleanser, toner, serum, and moisturizer for $150.00.
or if you wish to get a set that includes the cleanser and
moisturizer for both the dry to normal and also the combination
(which is also for oily) it would be $200.00 for 6 products.
How long does yours last? Glimpse(tm) will last up to 2 months.
Advantages -
a) use in the shower for more than just your face
b) safe for baby
c) * save time in doing your facial by making a cocktail - mix most
ingredients together and use at one time.
d) have it drop shipped - retail price (contact me)
e) buy it at wholesale and have it drop shipped
f) send to someone else not at your address
g) put it on automatic shipment so you will not forget
* A.M./P.M. Cocktail
* Step #1: Cleanse with cleanser of choice (Creamy or Gel), making sure to use enough product to thoroughly cleanse your skin (about a quarter sized amount). Rinse thoroughly. We always recommend a double cleanse.
* Step #2: In the palm of your hand, mix together, 2 pumps Serum, 4 pumps Lotion or Cream, 2 pumps Toner, and I like to do 2-3 drops Pericarp Oil. Apply to desired area, taking extra care to apply to your neck, and chest (or wherever you have exposed skin).
It makes a world of difference to get the safe products and also
save money at the same time. Ours are guaranteed, no questions asked.
Even those products that claim that they are natural and safe still
have toxic products included.

Will it be worth your money?
1. Will your complexion receive the care that it needs?
2. Will it be safe to put on your skin when it is absorbed?
3. Will it last a long time?
4. Is it guaranteed?
5. Is it safe for the entire family?

"The Dirty Dozen"
Ingredients to AVOID in personal care products
What you put on your skin can go into your body to affect your health and sense of well-being - either negatively or positively. You can choose which . . . if you know the facts (which the "cosmetic conspiracy" wants to hide from you).
As our body's biggest organ, your Skin is your most important immune defense barrier as well as your largest organ for eliminating waste. Commercial products with harmful petroleum ingredients can plasticize and "constipate" your skin, making germs more likely to get in and toxins less likely to get out of your body. The result: Neither you nor your skin are as radiant and healthy as you could be! Every day we use products that we think are safe; but the truth is that products are NOT always safe – and manufacturers don't have to tell us so. Ever since 1938 - when the PDA granted self-regulation to the cosmetics industry - such products can be marketed without government approval of ingredients, regardless of what tests show.
Most of the 25,000 chemicals used have not been tested for long-term toxic effects. In a typical day, you might be exposed to over 200 different chemicals, many of which are suspected of causing cancer or juggling hormones. EPA tests conclude that ingredients in shampoos, dyes, and other personal care products "maybe playing havoc with hormones that control reproduction and development.
START CHECKING ALL PRODUCT LABELS:
AVOID THESE HARMFUL, HAZARDOUS 'TOUCH-ME-NOT" INGREDIENTS!
Propylene Glycol (PG) and Butylene Glycol: Found in Anti-freeze. Acts as a "surfactant11 (wetting agent and solvent). Penetrates skin and weakens protein and cellular structure. Strong enough to remove barnacles from boats! The EPA considers PG so toxic that workers are required to wear protective clothing and to dispose of PG by burying it in the ground. PG penetrates the skin so quickly, the EPA warns against contact to prevent brain, liver, and kidney abnormalities. But there isn't even a warning label on products such as stick deodorants, where the concentration is greater than in most industrial applications.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) & Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES). Detergents that pose serious health threats. Used in garage floor cleaners and engine degreasers - and in 90% of personal-care products that foam. Animals exposed to SLS experience eye damage, depression, labored breathing, diarrhea, severe skin irritation, and even death. Young eyes may not develop properly if exposed to SLS. May damage the skin's immune system. Can be transformed into nitrosamines, a potent class of carcinogens. Your body may retain the SLS for up to five days and maintain residual levels in the heart, liver, lungs, and brain.
DEA (diethanolamine). MEA (Monoethanolaniine) & TEA (triethanolamine): Hormone-disrupting chemicals that can form cancer-causing nitrates. Restricted in Europe due to carcinogenic effects, yet they are still used in the U.S. Americans may be exposed 10-20 times per day with shampoos, shaving creams and bubble baths. Dr. Samuel Epstein Professor of Environmental Health at the University of Illinois) says that repeated applications of DEA-based detergents result in major increase in liver and kidney cancer. The PDA's John Bailey says, "the risk is significantly increased for children."
Sodium Hydroxide: The most recent addition to our personal care products. This is a poison (caustic lye) found in drain cleaners, yet is now found in our children and adult toothpaste!
Triclosan: Synthetic "antibacterial" with a chemical structure similar to Agent Orange! The EPA registers it as a pesticide, giving it high scores as a risk to human health and the environment. It is in a class of chemicals suspected of causing cancer in humans. It may produce dioxin, a hormone-disrupting chemical with toxic effects measured in the parts per trillion; that is only one drop in 300 Olympic-size swimming pools! Hormone disrupters pose enormous longterm chronic health risks. It can change genetic material, decrease fertility and sexual function, and foster birth defects. Internally, it can lead to cold sweats, circulatory collapse, and convulsions. Stored in body fat, it can accumulate to toxic levels, damaging the lxiver, kidneys and lungs, and can cause paralysis, brain hemorrhages and heart problems. Tufts University School of Medicine says Triclosan can force the emergence of "super bugs" that it cannot kill. Its widespread use in antibacterial cleansers, toothpastes and household products may have nightmarish implications on future generations.
DMDM & Urea (Imidazolidinyl): Two of many preservatives that often release formaldehyde which cause joint pain, skin reactions, allergies, depression, headaches, chest pains, ear infections, chronic fatigue, dizziness, and loss of sleep. Exposure also irritates the respiratory system; triggers heart palpitations or asthma, and aggravates coughs and colds. Other side effects include weakening the immune system and cancer.
Polyethylene Glycol (PEG): Carcinogenic petroleum ingredient that reduces the skin's natural moisture. Increases the appearance of aging and leaves you vulnerable to bacteria. Used in spray-on oven cleaners and cleansers to dissolve oil and grease.
Liutane or Propane: Found in aerosol products. May be narcotic and cause asphyxiation,
Alcohol, Isopropyl (SD-40): Drying, irritating solvent that strips skin's moisture and immune barrier, making you vulnerable to bacteria and viruses. Made from a petroleum derivative found in shellac and antifreeze as well as personal care products. Promotes brown spots and premature aging. A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients says it may cause headaches, flushing, dizziness, mental depression, nausea, vomiting, and coma. Fatal ingested dose is one ounce or less.
Mineral Oil: Petroleum by-product that coats the skin like plastic wrap, clogging the pores. Interferes with skin's ability to eliminate toxins, promoting acne and other disorders. Slows down skin function and cell development, resulting in premature aging. Baby oil is 100% mineral oil!
FD&C Color Pigments: Synthetic colors from coal tar that deposits toxins onto the skin, causing skin irritation. Absorption of certain colors can cause depletion of oxygen in the body and death. Animal studies have shown almost all of them to be carcinogenic.
Fragrances: Can contain up to four thousand ingredients (including animal urine), many toxic or carcinogenic.
Causes headaches, dizziness, allergic rashes, skin discoloration, violent coughing, vomiting, and skin irritation.
Fragrances affect the nervous system, causing depression, hyper activity, irritability, inability to cope, and other
behavioral changes.

Work Till Age 85
Well, dust off your briefcase Granny and Pop, it is ‘back to work we go’. Just when we had plans for travel, time for the grandkids or our favorite hobby, it all went up in smoke.
Many senior citizens at that age still possess great health and stamina. But, for many it means working when we have ill health or are caring for a spouse 24/7 and just don’t have the ability or time to return to a job.
Add to the problem of even finding a job if they have already hung up their hats. Those lucky enough to have kept their jobs or those lucky enough to find some menial job to do may bring in a pittance. Supposedly most of us at this age don’t have qualifications to be hired. Or do we?
We do need to think about this seriously. Too many seniors are already cutting corners by skipping medication dosages, going without insurance and A/C or are without available conveyance of their own.
Okay, I will admit that is only a small percentage, but it most often is not going to be easy for people that age to keep working if they need to. Enough to make a difference that is.
But, do we have qualifications to do a great job? Yes. We have experience from previous jobs or positions that we have held and developed leadership abilities and first-hand knowledge that the young don’t possess. But, try telling that to some CEO when they have the world of young people to choose from.
This is why I realized that many of us still have the ability to even run a business of our own. YES, a business of our very own. Not where you would have to have a store front, employees and all the expenses of the electricity, insurance rent etc., but a networking business that will double and triple your efforts with the same amount of time and effort.
I have found and started one such business, that I can share with you. There is nothing – NOTHING – even remotely effective in generating income as the combination of the company, XanGo™, its products, its pay structure and a video system that I use, in the entire industry.
You and I can build a huge business by simply sending out professional videos. It sure beats the time and cost of sending out CDs or DVDs as people used to do.
You would love XanGo™, their wonderful new products that are creating such momentum, and our incredible team work.
We are organized and efficient. All we do is use the videos that I am going to share with you. Follow these steps and repeat and it will be only a matter of time before you see that wonderful stream of income, even 4 & 5 figure monthly income. Believe in yourself and give yourself the chance to prove your worth.
I am 78, rapidly approaching 79, but don’t under estimate my expertise in business. I have built to a producer level in another business before I found that this was an easier business to work and be able to earn higher income faster. I don’t have to deliver the products and I can do much of my business right from home. I don’t need a warehouse. Many meetings and trainings that I avail myself of are right on the computer.
My role model is a ‘young lady’ that is my age that built a business to lofty heights when she brought her young niece into the business. You don’t need to do it all. Just share with those that want what you want.
The XanGo™ business model is to find 3 (THREE) people that are looking for what you are and help them to find their 3.
Do you need to know everything before you get started? No! I will stand beside you and you will have this remarkable system to guide you.
Are you with me? Check out this first video and get back to me with your questions. I will share other videos with you soon.
This information should be a sufficient ‘carrot’ to wet your appetite. But, I will add an incentive to get you started. Businesses always get rolling better when they start of on the right foot QUICKLY.
Therefore, I am going to help you get started QUICKLY by throwing in this incentive. Find those first 3 partners and get them started with their ADP and I will refund the price of YOUR first ADP ordered in the first month, up to $100.
P.S. In case you are wondering if networking businesses work, here is an eye opener. “The Wall Street Journal had a special 40 page supplement today about the Direct Selling Industry. " The Ultimate Social Business Model. Why Now Is the Prime Time For Direct Selling." I guess Warren Buffett, Richard Branson, Robert Kiyosaki, David Bach and all the hard working people around the world that create 100 billion in sales annually in Direct Sales/Network marketing were right after all. ;) “ June 25th.
Here is your first video. Enjoy and get back to me. http://lifeasitcouldbe.com/nktexas/
