Here is what I found online for you:
I was using Johnson and Johnson Nourishing Milk Lotion on our son until I read the ingredients and seen what was in it. Here is a list
of the bad things I know of currently.
<LIST>
<LI>
- Dimethicone</LI>
<LI>
- Fragrance</LI>
<LI>
- Methylparaben</LI>
<LI>
- Butylparaben</LI>
<LI>
- Ethylparaben</LI>
<LI>
- Propylparaben</LI>
<LI>
- Isobutylparaben</LI>
</LIST>Those are just a few of the ingredients I know of that cause harm in various ways to your children and your own self if you use these products.
Here is what they do.
Dimethicone
A silicone derived emolient. Silicone emollients are occlusive - that is they coat the skin, trapping anything beneath it, and do not allow the skin to breathe (much like plastic wrap would do.)
Recent studies have indicated that prolonged exposure of the skin to sweat, by occlusion, causes skin irritation. Some synthetic emollients are known tumour promoters and accumulate in the liver and lymph nodes. They are also non-biodegradable, causing negative environmental impact.
