quiz: Do you know what Imidazolidinyl urea, Triethanolamine, and
Carrageenan are? These are ingredients found in many bath and

The Hidden Danger Of Chlorine In Our Bath WaterMost of us associate a long, relaxing soak in the bath with
candlelight, soothing music and a few drops of our favourite
essential oils.
Not many of us stop to think about the dangers associated with
chlorine in our bath water. Most people don't realize that we
absorb more chemicals through skin absorption and the inhalation
of steam while showering and bathing than we do from drinking
water.

making its way into our homes little by little, until now.
Organic cotton companies alone are reporting product sales
