arbonne question
Ro,
I’m sorry you had a reaction to a product but before you bash it; please do
all your research.
Butylene Glycol is an organic alcohol — most acne products contain SD40
alcohol — how THAT’S something you need to worry about! It’s chemical and it’s
very harsh on the skin.
The other ingredients you list below are preservatives and you know what? If
you don’t have any preservatives at all in your products, little green things
start growing out of them!!
Arbonne products contain less that 1% preservatives (do your homework – other
companies have between 20 and 40% preservatives).
If you don’t like these products, fine. Don’t like them. But don’t bash them
either – that also is not what this forum is about!

Hi,
I don’t know who owns this list, but it is possible that whoever owns it is
an Arbonne distributor.
*** NOTE FROM LIST OWNER***
I am NOT an arbonne distributor or a distributor of any kind. I started this
list for people to have a place to come to and not be bombarded by people just
trying to sell their products. That has always been and always will be the
purpose of this list.
***NOTE FROM LIST OWNER***
I suffer with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and had a reaction to Arbonne.
I would not use it.
I got information directly from Arbonne about their CLEAR ADVANTAGE ACNE
LOTION. It contains these TOXIC ingredients:
BUTYLENE GLYCOL - this glycol is the only glycol that is not on the GRAS
list. (FDA’s Generally Recognized As Safe list). Go to FDA website.
Methylparaben
Proplyparaben
Diazoldinyl Urea - contains free formaldehyde.
This is the link Arbonne sent me with the ingredients. You can check it out
for yourself. Don’t take my word for it.

If you want to learn more about the above TOXIC ingredients and the harm
they can do to your health, go to www.absolutelyorganic-toxicfree.com and
click on "PLEASE AVOID" or to the TOXICFREE Foundation’s website at
www.toxicfree.org.
My best advice to acne sufferers and really to everyone, is to CHECK YOUR
INGREDIENT LABELS! Be an educated consumer. Don’t put products with toxic
ingredients on your skin.
