Multiple articles and reports outlining the many benefits of grape seed oil have been written. It is now understood that our skin is not just a barrier to our internal bodies but the largest organ in our body. Until the discovery of the medicinal pain patch, the abilities of our skin to absorb topicals was greatly misunderstood. We now know that what we place on our skin, ends up in our bloodstream. So indulge yourself while reaping the known benefits of our grape seed oil sugar scrub. Our body lotions are cruelty free do not contain parabens. If you are unfamiliar with parabens, here is a quick summary of what they are and why you should avoid them: Paraben is a synthetic preservative used in body products, cosmetics and in some food products. Parabens are known to be estrogen mimickers and parabens have been found in breast tumors upon scientific exam. The cosmetic industry is naturally defending them, however, evidence is rapidly surfacing that shows they are NOT 100% safe as advertised, and they are definitely not necessary. There are plenty of natural products that are available to give body and cosmetic products a shelf life without endangering your health. Remember back to the many years that cigarettes were touted as safe and if one suggested otherwise their concerns were considered extreme. This is true of many products that have been marketed to us over the years and inevitably after a few studies come out and are irrefutable the industry and government regulators will admit and accept that the product needs a warning at the least or removed from the market all together. So don't wait to make a healthy and sensible choice in your body products. Read your labels and look for the alternative. Many manufacturers, along with West End Naturals, are voluntarily producing products without paraffin's and making the information available. If you choose to use them, they are readily available, but we think you will agree, why take the risk when there is a better product available. In support of local and fellow businessman, West End Naturals exclusively uses U.S.
