Do you know the number one cause of skin damage in the US is from sun exposure? Johns Hopkins studies show the number two cause of skin damage is mineral oil. A quick look in our cosmetic bags just might reveal products which include a form of mineral oil, a highly refined by product of crude oil. If your skin is the largest organ on your body then it can certainly be a major factor in what gets into your body. That is the opinion of Wendy Cohen, mother of two school-aged children; recipient of several Senatorial and Congressional awards for her work in banning chemicals in classrooms around the country; and Arbonne Consultant.
In 1997 Wendy co-founded a grass roots organization which banned chemicals in school rooms. Or as Ms. Cohen likes to say, “A policy which uses least toxic methods to control pests, clean facilities, and sanitize the surroundings.” Children should not be exposed to chemicals while their bodies are still developing and as adults we must be tenacious and careful not to absorb unwanted products through our skin. After forming a national alliance Ms. Cohen’s logical next step was finding products which her family and friends would find safe for their skin.
The journey lead her to Arbonne International. How do you know which products are right for your particular needs? Children’s skin is many times more sensitive to certain products than adult skin. There are many studies which have been done showing what is put on the skin and absorbed into the body affects our emotional states, chemical balance, and reproductive systems among other things. Rates of absorption are different for every area of the body but as long as something is on your skin, it is being absorbed into your body. http://www.agf.gov.bc.ca/pesticides/b_2.htm
American’s have seen a surge in dermal patches for smoking, birth control, pain management, and even weight control. Studies find the skin is a rapid and efficient delivery system to the body. Ms. Cohen makes sure to point out what goes on the skin shows up in the body.
So how did Ms. Cohen, end up as a consultant with Arbonne International? She segued from a position in marketing and licensing at one of Hollywood’s largest film studios to becoming a stay-at-home mother. “At the time of my first child’s birth
