Two kids 13 1/2 months apart. My son the oldest was standing on his own the day after he was born. You bet i got snipped!
And my underarms do not sweat much, and when they do it is already coming out everywhere else.

Mweb was busy and asked me to help. What's in your soap?

In 1938, under the U.S. Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act, cosmetics were legally defined as any product used for the purpose of "cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering appearance" without affecting bodily function. Products that come under this category include sprays, lotions, powders, deodorants, facial makeup and, you guessed it, soaps. Unlike products that are classified as both a cosmetic and a drug (such as fluoride toothpaste) cosmetics and their individual ingredients do not need FDA approval before appearing on the market. In fact, the FDA has no regulatory authority over these products and their ingredients until after they appear on the market, and only if it can be determined that they have caused direct harm to human health. Furthermore, the fact that many soaps and cleansers are formulated from a variety of combined chemicals complicates the issue further. Only about 16 percent of cosmetics have been tested for toxicity by the FDA-- although it does require companies to label cosmetics with a warning if they contain irritants or hazardous substances.

Curious now about what you're taking a bath with? Here's a brief rundown on some potentially harmful ingredients found in many commercial soaps:

A-pinene -- Derived from the resinous sap of pine trees, this substance is a major component of turpentine and can damage the immune system.

A-terpineol -- This chemical is extremely irritating to your mucus membranes. Frequent or prolonged exposure (and especially repeated inhalation) can also cause edema, as well as respiratory difficulties.

Benzaldehyde -- Also called oil of bitter almond, this substance is a narcotic and anesthetic that can depress the central nervous system. When inhaled, it can bring on vomiting, dizziness and a sudden drop in blood pressure.

Benzyl Acetate -- An eye and lung irritant and known carcinogen (cancer-causer) that has been associated with pancreatic cancer.

Ethanol -- Appears on the EPA Hazardous Waste List and is used in the manufacture of varnish and paint remover. This chemical can irritate the respiratory tract and can cause impaired vision and loss of muscle control.

Linalool -- A narcotic that can impair respiratory function and motor activity. Linalool also attracts bees which can be a problem for those allergic to bee stings.

Sodium Laurel Sulfate (SLS) -- Used to increase absorption of other chemicals; it is also a "wetting agent" that allows shampoo to spread out and penetrate more easily. SLS breaks down lipids (fats) and impairs the skin's ability to retain moisture. It is classified as a "mutagen," meaning it can alter cellular genetic material. In fact, SLS has been used in Japanese studies to promote bacterial mutations.

Triclosan -- A bactericide (anti-bacterial) and mutagen that is readily absorbed through the skin. It's also an eye irritant and associated with causing liver damage.

A new generation of chemicals-resistant supergerms?

It should also be said that the overuse of chemical antibacterials, such as triclosan, has created a widespread problem of a new generation of bacteria that have mutated to become resistant to these harsh chemicals. According to research from Tufts University, triclosan-containing antibacterial soaps used in the home can become breeding grounds for creating a strain of resistant bacteria.

Not sure what my reaction will be if I ever meet mwebb. I just envision this guy wearing Wrangler jeans, with a tucked in button-down with a pocket protector filled with pens, pressure gauges, and lollipops.
