Build Bath & Shower

Shopping for a baby shower gift can be difficult. If the mommy-to-be is anything like me, she started shopping for the baby the day she found out she was pregnant! My mom actually started buying baby items for years before I was pregnant so we had quite the collection when my son arrived. I always try to purchase gifts that I know will be used even if the parents have already have one – like diapers and bath products. You can never have enough diapers (especially in the early weeks of bringing baby home ) and a parent will be using gentle baby bath products on their children well into the toddler and preschool years. The baby gift basket ideas in this post are all about bath time plus we have an exciting giveaway at the end of the post! Baby Gift Basket Ideas – Bath Time: You could start by checking the mommy-to-be’s registry to see if she has any bath items on her registry. If there is a baby bathtub listed , this would be a great (and unique) basket for the rest of the gift! So...

Johnson and Johnson, a name synonymous with gentle bath products , was assessed $417 million in damages by a Los Angeles jury on Monday after the company was found liable in a case charging that they failed to highlight the dangers of their talc powder and its link to cancer, The Los Angeles Times reported . It marks the largest verdict in at least 300 lawsuits in California and over 4,500 claims filed against the company nationwide that their Baby Powder and Shower to Shower products are linked to cancer, the Times reported . Talcum powder, popularly used for absorbing moisture and cutting down on friction, is made from the mineral talc, which naturally contains some asbestos, which is known to be linked to cancer, according to the American Cancer Society . While talcum powders produced since the 1970’s for the commercial market are asbestos free, researchers and scientists are still not entirely certain about the connection between the powder and instances of cancer, the ACS writes...

When making choices to support a healthier lifestyle, many individuals overlook the safety of their beauty and/or personal care products . But they shouldn’t: Not only is skin your largest organ, but what is applied to the skin is absorbed by the body (if you’re suspect, just think about the efficacy of transdermal birth control or nicotine patches). As a professional with 15 years of experience as a makeup artist and 10 years of experience in naturals specifically, I have developed an expertise in which products, ingredients, and methods are best. So if you’re taking the time—and spending the money—to buy healthier, organic food, it’s about time you understand what you’re putting on your skin. An introduction to clean and natural beauty. In order to understand the context, here’s some clean beauty 101 : The personal care industry (meaning things like lipstick, shampoo, lotion, deodorant, toothpaste) is completely unregulated in the United States. In layman’s terms, this means ther...
