Healthy Holiday Gifts – Which Body Creams Aren't Linked To Cancer?

I just received a gorgeous gift basket filled with bath and body creams, as thanks for becoming a client of a financial adviser. While I deeply appreciated his thoughtful generosity, I had to return the gift basket. Why?

Because all the bath and body products contained toxic ingredients that are linked to cancer and chronic illness. Many of these ingredients are found in breast cancer tumors, according to Cornell Medical research.

Researchers prove that whatever you put on your skin ends up in your bloodstream. So if you want to protect your body against cancer and environmentally-caused illness, it makes sense to avoid bath and body creams and cosmetics laced with toxic ingredients and carcinogens, along with eating organic, pesticide-free foods and drinking purified water.

Since you’re shopping for holiday gifts, why not choose the safest, most luxurious bath and body creams which are healthy for your skin and the environment. How do you find them?

I’ll make it easy for you. I’m posting a list of the best companies who make safe, organic products without toxic ingredients.

This list was researched and recommended by SmartMommyHealthyBaby.com because these products are safe enough to use during pregnancy, when what you put on your skin also ends up in your unborn baby.

While I do use many of these organic products, I don’t get paid to recommend them to you.
Happy holiday shopping for healthy, organic bath and body creams that help you look and feel your best:
