If you're interested in a nontoxic non chemical soap I really love Dr. Bronner's pure castille soap.

Just curious, how did you train your skin not to need lotion?

We have all seen "Nicotine Patches" and those "Birth Control Patches" that rely on your skin to absorb chemicals.
Well, I believe that soap, lotions, and even just dirty water, can be absorbed in your skin and could possibly cause skin cancer, or other things.
A while back I bought a water purifier the connects to my shower head, and I swear I felt a difference on my skin. I also don't use any lotion, except for my face at times, which I want to train my skin to not need so I can eliminate possible problems.
Does anyone have any information about the chemicals your skin will and will not absorb? I believe our skin will eject the stuff it doesn't want, but I don't know if that holds true until it is already in your skin.
I read all kinds of stuff about Sunblock, and how it could possibly cause cancer, and I think it could be true.
What do you think?
