Aveeno's successful marketing of its products as "natural" is just that - _marketing_. The primary ingredients in, for example, the Positively Ageless Lifting & Firming Night Cream are, after water and glycerin: <BR/><BR/><BR/>Dimethicone, Tetrahydroxypropyl Ethylenediamine, Cetyl Alcohol, Butylene Glycol, Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate, Cyclohexasiloxane, and Polyacrylamide.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Most of these are decidedly _not_ natural; they are synthetic chemicals, several of them not especially good for living things. Dimethicone is a silicone based polymer: yes, silicone, just like caulk. Silicone is _generally_ non-reactive, but, as the unfortunate debacle with leaking silicone breast implants demonstrated, may not be all kittens and cupcakes when introduced directly into the bloodstream. <BR/><BR/>Equally worrisome is Polyacrylamide. This polymer quickly downcycles to acrylamide, a troublesome little molecule that is, among other things, a nerve toxin and carcinogen. What's worse, "residual" unpolymerized acrylamide is always present in varying amounts in Polyacrylamide. As a chemist, I'm continually surprised by what I see on ingredient lists. <BR/><BR/>The upshot: are chemical-laden face creams going to cause you to keel over dead in front on the mirro? Probably not. But here's a word you can drop at your next cocktail party: Bioaccumulation. You're big sponges, darlings. While most of the millions of substances (natural and synthetic) that we take on board (ingest, inhale, absorb through skin, etc) every day are processed out, many of them accumulate in the body. And of those, there are some which will, inevitably, cause some trouble. And when "trouble" in biological terms means "cancer" or "Parkinson's", perhaps it would be best to err on the side of caution: <BR/><BR/>Shop organic when possible; <BR/>Avoid plastics and other off-gassers in the home as much as is practical; <BR/><BR/>and, when it comes to lotions and the like:<BR/><BR/>If you wouldn't _eat it_, don't put it on your skin.jouissenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12383641868867824828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-51478614405059009232008-05-19T14:01:00.000-05:002008-05-19T14:01:00.000-05:00I use aveeno skin daily moisturizing firming cream...I use aveeno skin daily moisturizing firming cream, and I'm a male, 29 years old.<BR/><BR/>Although I'm not a big fan of the smell, it does have a dramatic impact on my skin tone and firmness.<BR/><BR/>Since Aveeno uses soy and oatmeal, I'm a big fan.

It was fine if there was a tiny bit of redness but if things got really rashy I had to switch to something more hardcore. I found it worked more like lotion than cream. It kinda absorbed into the skin instead of coating and protecting.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, this is a fun blog - I love your header!

I could have given away a few dozen of them for more instant gratification.

I would often use it at night and wake up in the middle of the night because my hands hurt due to dryness. Then I'd slather another lotion on and return to blissful slumbers.<BR/><BR/>So I don't know, I'm kinda mixed. A lot of people including my Dad really like it but maybe the dry climate down here just got the best of it.Killlashandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16655705881605627747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-75288846626892045772008-05-13T21:35:00.000-05:002008-05-13T21:35:00.000-05:00I use the aveeno body lotions for dry skin.
