4 thinks I would NEVER put on my children’s skin (when I do have them)! Because what you put on your skin goes into your bloodstream and into your body. When toxic chemicals are applied to your skin, they can enter your body in several ways, leading to potential health issues. Here’s how it works: Absorption Through the Skin: Your skin is made up of several layers, including the epidermis, which acts as a barrier. However, this barrier is not impermeable. Some chemicals can pass through the skin by diffusion, especially if they are small, lipophilic (fat-soluble), or in high concentrations. Once they penetrate the outer layer, they can reach deeper layers where they enter the bloodstream. Transport via Bloodstream: After a chemical enters the skin, it can be absorbed into the capillaries (small blood vessels) beneath the skin. The blood then carries these toxins throughout the body, potentially affecting organs like the liver, kidneys, and brain. Cumulative Exposure: Repeated exposure to chemicals over time can result in the buildup of these substances in the body, increasing the risk of chronic health problems, such as hormone disruption, reproductive issues, skin irritation, cancer, and neurological damage.
