What's in your cosmetics?

Many cosmetics and toiletries including so-called 'naturals' and those from famous names and high street outlets contain a cocktail of chemical ingredients GM derived ingredients as well as pesticide, herbicide, chemical fertiliser and other chemical residues from various animal and vegetable sources. All of these can impair the general health and vitality of otherwise healthy skin.
