Parabens in Toothpaste

It has been a super long time since updating this blog but I really really want to let my (few) readers know that our home is almost chemical free now.  When the handsoap and dishsoap run out, that's it... I'm making some.

BUT when cleaning through the bathroom last week I happened to pick up the kids' toothpaste.  We had run out of our flouride free so for some reason I decided (well after it had been bought and half-used) to look at the ingredients.  HORROR!!!  Parabens in kid's toothpaste?  Why?  Not in the adult generic toothpaste.  It must be to maintain that lovely orangey color and taste.

So FYI, check your toothpaste for SLEs, SLSs, and Parabens!
