PRETTY-Panties Is it Okay to Use Cosmetics with Parabens or should you go Paraben Free?
Jun 21, 2009 Author: Katie Lara | Filed under: Health
After reading Anti-Cancer, which recommends using cosmetics that are Paraben-free we decided, hey, why not? If there is any chance that it causes cancer, why take the risk. Although the FDA maintains that results that parabens cause cancer are inconclusive, we have decided to go organic whenever we can with beauty products (and well, everything else as well).

Over here at Smartypanties we’re going Paraben free. I mean, didn’t the government say cigarettes weren’t that bad for you not so long ago?

I want to go paraben free, can you give me advice on a face product that is 100% natural, that is actually good for my skin high in antioxidents, ect… all I really need is a face wash , moisturizing lotion and eye cream, I hardly ever wear foundation, but if you know of a good one could you give me that info too, I really appreciate your site, Im so unhappy with the products Ive tried, I look forward to hearing back from you! Thankyou so much Cindy
Hi Cindy,
To be honest I’m still on the lookout for the PERFECT products too, even after many that I’ve tried. The Solution is my favorite moisturizer though, it has no scary ingredients or parabens. Then I use Juice Organics for face washes and moisturizers. I also love Burt’s Bees products. As for an organic foundation I have yet to find one that I like. I do use Juice Beauty’s tinted moisturizer though, which can definitely do the trick! Hope that helped!
