Just spoke to JnJ & they are sending me a natural neutrogena similar product & a coles myer card refund & I don’t have to send the product back. Worth the call.

I only use Dr. Bronners castile soap on my face. Never a breakout. It’s wonderful.

Oh, thank heavens my Noxema is not on the list. Nor is my Orevitol (anti-aging nighttime cream). I guess I’m in the clear, but I’ll check the jars to make sure. Thank you for spreading the word. This is such an important topic.

Eliza, good for you in sending it back. That makes quite the message to companies and if more people sent products back they would see their profits fall and do something to change the ingredients.

To see the micro beads listed so high in the ingredients list is horrible. But there are a few other ingredients you may want to research further as they are pretty bad both for us and the environment and are on that ingredient label. Acrylate crosspolymer and the glycols especially the butylane

You can check the ingredients in your products at the environmental working group’s website: http://ewg.org

I’m with Cat, my skin cleared up when I started using water only on my face but needs a bit of hydration in the winter which is when I will moisturize with a bit of raw coconut oil.

KUDOS to you for sending it back!

I realize this will probably make me sound completely “out there” but all of my skin problems cleared up when I stopped using anything but water on my face. OK – I use a bit of unscented soap if I’m totally slathered in sunscreen, but otherwise pure H2O seems to do the trick for me.
