Minimising exposure to chemical toiletries is particularly important for babies who have sensitive, delicate skin which is much thinner than adults. The skin is the largest organ of the body - a two way membrane that both eliminates and absorbs toxins. Skin care manufacturers do not actually claim that products are absorbed by the skin – if this were the case, products would be termed "drugs” and would be governed by far stricter regulations, as it is, some of the chemicals in skin care products would be considered dangerous to be taken orally, but are apparently acceptable for applying to the skin!
