| Sodium C-14-16 olefin sulfonate is very drying and irritating to many people; lemon grass, sage, grapefruit, tangerine can be irritating. So it depends on how sensitive your skin is... What product is this? |

| Parabens is a really bad preservative, it causes all sorts of hormone imbalances like bad estrogens, and I have heard its not good for the skin. |

| The effects of paraben use in cosmetics has been overexaggerated. The amount of paraben present in cosmetics is so low that it's barely detectable in the body, let alone cause hormonal imbalances. The only way this would happen if you were injecting yourself with parabens. If you want to find out more, check out Dr. Neil Schultz or Dermalogica on youtube. In my opinion, I think parabens are safe |

as for the cleanser, I will be more consider its cleansing property. I don't expect too much from its ingredients.
From the list, most of the ingredients are ok. |

This is Trader Joe's Refresh body wash. I've used it in the shower for years with no problems. I don't want to clog up my Mia with Pro X microscrub stuff, which is what I've been using to take off my makeup.
Is there any cheap cleanser with all natural ingredients that will get off makeup and isn't moisturizing? I have an oily T zone and always apply either peptides in the AM or vitamin C and LacSal in the PM so I don't want any film on the skin interfering with their absorption. |
