TEA (Triethanolomine) - Ingredients to Avoid #13
INGREDIENTS TO AVOID #13
TRIETHANOLOMINE (TEA)
"Triethanolamine is produced by reacting ethylene oxide (considered highly toxic) with ammonia (another known toxin). . According to Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics, and the U.S. National Library of Medicine, there is strong evidence that Triethanolamine is a human skin, immune system and respiratory toxicant. One or more animal studies show sense organ effects at very low doses, especially when used around the mouth, eyes and lips, and one or more in vitro tests on mammalian cells show positive mutation results. It has been shown to cause bladder and liver cancer, as well as changes in testicles.
Treithanolamine is used in a variety of cosmetic and personal care products, including eyeliners, mascara, eye shadows, blushers, make-up bases and foundations, as well as in fragrances, hair care products, hair dyes, wave sets, shaving products, sunscreens, and skin care and skin cleansing products.
According to OrganicConsumers.org, Triethanolamine can cause allergic reactions including eye problems, dryness of hair and skin, and could be toxic if absorbed into the body over a long period of time. It can cause itching, burning, scaling, hives, and blistering of skin, all symptoms which may increase with higher concentrations"

PEG's - Ingredients to Avoid #6
INGREDIENTS TO AVOID #6 - PEG’s - (polyethylene glycol) - petroleum byproduct.
PEG Compounds and their contaminants
"PEGs may be contaminated with measurable amounts of ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane from the manufacturing process. The International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies ethylene oxide as a known human carcinogen and 1,4-dioxane as a possible human carcinogen. Ethylene oxide can also harm the nervous system and the California EPA has classified it as a developmental toxicant based on evidence that it may interfere with human development. 1,4-dioxane is also persistent. In other words, it doesn't easily degrade and can remain in the environment long after it is rinsed down the shower drain. 1,4-dioxane can be removed from cosmetics during the manufacturing process by vacuum stripping, but there is no easy way for consumers to know whether products containing PEGs have undergone this process. In a study of personal care products marketed as "natural" or "organic", U.S. researchers found 1,4-dioxane as a contaminant in 46 of 100 products analyzed."
