    I read the PrettyMommies Link. Typical marketing where everything ‘natural’ is great and all the inferences to ‘synthetic’ or ‘chemical’ dangers are frequent. I get REALLY TIRED of reading that sort of thing.

    If these companies are so altruistic, why are they charging more than $1 per ml of product, considering that most products are 70%, or more, water?
    And is it a valid claim to say that oils moisturize? I thought humectants moisturize. Oils, I thought, cover the skin, while emollients soften the skin. I see alot of companies make the claim that their oils moisturize.
