Johnson & Johnson (J&J) announced Wednesday that it will continue their efforts to remove two toxic chemicals form its baby products.  J&J recently removed these two chemicals- 1,4-dioxane- a known carcinogen, and quaternium-15, a chemical known to release formaldehyde, from several countries, including the U.K., Scandinavia and South Africa. But these toxic chemicals are still being sold in the U.S., China, Canada and Australia.  If J&J can produce a toxin-free product in Europe they should be able to figure out how to do it in the U.S.  No one should be exposed to environmental toxins in their cosmetics, especially our babies. We should be able to trust that products we put on our skin, especially the products we put on our babies highly permeable skin, do not contain ingredients known to cause cancer and other heath problems.  For now, I recommend avoiding J&J products and to become informed about the products we put on our families skin. The Environmental Working Group is a fantastic resource to find safe products.
