My Brother Keeps Telling Me That I Can't Wear My Perfumes And Lotions Or Deodorants Is That True? He Also Said I Can't Burn My Candles 🤔
I use a deodorant called Primal Pit Paste. You can find on Amazon and it's all natural, zero aluminum and they have Baking Soda or no baking soda options. Works like a charm and with no toxicity. I had a friend who had bc and the pathology showed traces of aluminum.
I have never heard this, and I work in a breast cancer clinic. We caution patients during chemo and radiation, their skin may be sensitive, so non scented soaps and lotions might help.
Wishing you well!
Yes that’s true. It’s because many have very chemical ingredients that get absorbed by the skin and then go into your blood. I especially would limit deodorant and buy an organic one! Candles pollute the air and enter your airways, exposing your body and lungs again to toxins. You want to limit your exposure to pollutants that you can control.
Hi! You could double check with your care team but just to be safe I use Dove advanced care unscented sensitive antiperspirant deodorant, Ivory sensitive skin body wash that is fragrance free and CeraVe daily moisturizing lotion (blue and white bottle) that is also fragrance free. All 3 have worked great for me. Hope this helps!
