The average Brit comes into contact with most of these chemicals on a regular basis. You can find them in the air, furniture, clothing, food, toiletries, basically in everything. Some of these chemicals are more harmful than others and in most cases they are not needed to create a better product. People with sensitive skin often find they cannot tolerate a lot of these chemicals; for example sodium lauryl sulphate (sls), parabens and aluminium are all known to cause skin reactions for some people.
We at the Stirling Health Food Store in Scotland sell a wide range without these harmful chemicals. We sell reduced chemical toiletries and household products free of SLS and parabens, bleach-free women's hygiene care, aluminium free deodorants, bio degradable cleaning products and peroxide-free hair dyes.
We try to stay as close to our ethics as possible, therefore 99% of our toiletries and cleaning products are:
- bio-degradable
- environmentally friendly
- not tested on animals (BUAV approved)
- reduced or no chemicals
- organic ingredients
- natural, safe and mild to the skin
