Time to trash parabens!

This weeks challenge is to remove one more chemical from your home -PARABENS!

Here's the challenge:
1. Read an article (like this one) about Parabens:
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/should-people-be-concerned-about-parabens-in-beauty-products/#
    Become educated! Do your research!
2. Look at the first 3 products you used this morning (maybe toothpaste, face wash, shampoo, makeup, hair products, etc.) and look through the ingredient list for word(s) ending in 'paraben'
3. Don't be shocked- the US doesn't regulate these chemicals, so it is up to you to check what is being used in your home. (The European union has banned around 1,300 chemicals while FDA has banned only 11!)
Now the good news- you don't have to get a chemistry degree to protect your  wellness. I started by using the EWG app to scan products at the store and find safer ones ('Think Dirty' is a good app too). Now I choose to make alot of my own products so I can add the benefits of essential oils (Google #Swapped4YL to find my DIY videos). But not everyone enjoys DIY, so Young Living also makes safe, chemical free, products and delivers them to your door! What makes Young Living products better than those marked 'Paraben free' at the big box stores? ALL Young Living products contain essential oils! Added wellness benefits and safe fragrances!
