I was doing some reading and found that some "essential oils" can be bad for you as well. I believe lime essential oil is actually photo-toxic if not prepared or utilized properly. I have read that if it is steam distilled, then essential oils are ok for you in products, but I don't know this for sure. There has been a lot of debate about parabens and breast cancer. From what I can tell in the little research that I have done on the subject is that no evidence has been found to prove a correlation between parabens and breast cancer. Methylparaben is also thought to be photo-toxic as well.

Personally, I hope that Castle Forbes Lime shaving cream is perfectly safe because I like it a lot.

Aren't chemicals fun!
