Hi Everyone! It has been one Windy/Rainy/Stormy Evening Here!
Updates here!
As of Today ImaginaryBee.com now only offers SLS FREE And Animal Fat Free Soaps! We want you to feel confident in what you buy:) I currently Offer: Organic Goats Milk Soap (SLS Free)and Pure Glycerin Soap (SLS Free, Clear)
What is SLS?
Sodium lauryl sulfate found in many soaps is exactly the same as you would find in a car wash or even a garage, where it is used to degrease car engines.
In the same way as it dissolves the grease on car engines, sodium lauryl sulfate also dissolves the oils on your skin, which can cause a drying effect. It is also well documented that it denatures skin proteins, which causes not only irritation, but also allows environmental contaminants easier access to the lower, sensitive layers of the skin.
Perhaps most worryingly, SLS is also absorbed into the body from skin application. Once it has been absorbed, one of the main effects of sodium lauryl sulfate is to mimic the activity of the hormone Oestrogen. This has many health implications and may be responsible for a variety of health problems from PMS and Menopausal symptoms to dropping male fertility and increasing female cancers such as breast cancer, where oestrogen levels are known to be involved.
Don't bring Any of the above into your home and around your little ones.
