Did you know that the FDA doesn’t regulate all chemicals in bath products?  The Environmental Working Group released a report on children’s shampoos and body washes and found that some contained I,4-dioxane, which the EPA calls a “probable human carcinogen.”  Check out the EWG’s website to find this info and more on other cosmetics and their safety.  I changed the shampoo we use at our house!
