In reply to Adele Stockhoff. Adele, I doubt it as it's illegal to put carcinogenic stuff in cosmetics. But if there's a particular product you're interested in, please provide me with the ingredient list so I can have a look.

Good day do you maybe know if the celltone and oh so heavenly products contain any cancer forming products.
Both of them dont test on animals but I want to make sure.
Thank you

In reply to Kathleen Rollins. Kathleen, I'm so sorry to hear about the death of your dogs. As tragic as it was, you can at least be reassured that you didn't cause it. There is no proof linking propylene glycol to cancer, especially in the tiny concentrations used in these products. Sadly cancer is an awful disease that sometimes just happens. :(

After reading other articles stating that propylene glycol, which is an ingredient in baby wipes, caused cancer, I became extremely upset. The reason is that I use baby wipes to wipe my dog’s eyes and another one to wipe their tushes. I have had 4 dogs die of cancer over the years at the ages of about 14 or 15 years old. I must say that I feel so much better after reading that this ingredient has not been proven to cause cancer. Hopefully, that is absolutely true. I will suffer tremendously for the rest of my life if I know I am the culprit for their cancer using a carcinogenic product. The concentration of propylene glycol is supposedly extremely low so that this ingredient is harmless when used in personal care products.

In reply to Bertie Luce. Bertie, just because something is a derivative of petroleum, it doesn't automatically mean it's bad. All the carcinogenic and toxic stuff is removed from these substances before they're put in cosmetic. Propylene glycol is used in very small amounts. Too small to cause any problems for our health. It is the dose that makes the poison. Even vitamin c, which we all agree is good for us, can kill us if we ingest too much of it.
