The fourth link contains links to click on which get you back to...the second link.
"Organic" and "natural" does not mean safe or good for you. A dog is obviously a "natural" thing, but if you're allergic to dogs, it isn't good to be around one, is it? I bought some "natural" mascara from The Body Shop once and had a terrible reaction to it.
Don't buy the organic is good/chemicals are Satan hype. It's ridiculous.

Beat me to it. Thanks.
There are some reasonable inferences people can make, then there are unreasonable ones. This whole hijack just
really rubbed me the wrong way. I mean to even suggest or "throw out the idea" that too much makeup can create toxins in one's body that can generate cancer is simply offensive. Or then again, maybe I'm just touchy about it because I'm a cancer survivor and I don't like the idea that because I wore make-up, I bought it upon myself. Maybe, Senusret, that is the reason I am being condescending towards a concept that literally makes no sense. I don't understand how logic can lead a person to infer that make-up weakened one's immune system enough to bring on colon cancer. I mean c'mon.. it's
make-up!!
MAKE-UP!!!! Millions of women wear it! Heck, maybe even billions. No reported cases of cancer causing blush yet, and with those kind of numbers using a product, it would have happened by now.
Also, Daemon, your logic of "too much of something" isn't a scientfic statement. There was a time when people thought that too much tuna fish could cause cancer. The only time "too much of something" effects people's health would be things like exposure to nuclear radiation, asbestos, and other
scientifically proven harmful agents. Now if Ms. Faye had been exposed to an agent like that, and you had mentioned that might have been a
contributing factor (yes, I
can read thank you very much) to her death, you might be correct. Anyway, your links are not scholarly proof that provide you a basis to tell me in 10 years "I told you so."
Honey, I personally know that cervical cancer is also generated by causes other than HPV. I was just making a contrasting statement to demonstrate a point
