I just bought some at Wal Mart for under $3 for a 7 ounce bottle. Not sure I will use it on my face, but the SWMBO and I have been using it on some dry skin on our hands and it seems to be working quite well.

Eggs on toast and bacon is what I'll have for breakfast. And a hand full of nuts.
If you don't eat large amounts of bacon every single day it's no problem.

I work for a company that manufactures cosmetic raw material for damn near every company you can think of. My warehouse is basically half grocery store , half chemical weapons lab. I do know that pretty much everything we make has a paraben free counterpart produced for clients what will not use them.

Here's my 2 cents...............I've been useing CHL for longer than most of you have been alive. And yes when I have gotten a bad razor burn I've put it on my face. In the winter I get really dry skin and use it nightly. If anybody on the planet was going to glow red from the stuff it would be me and it would have happened years ago. I kid you not some of the stuff I read on this site makes me really wonder about the education in this country. ...................................JR

I just dumped my Corn Huskers Lotion in the trash.
There is nothing organic about Corn Huskers. The biggest danger is the the large amount of methylparaban. It is the substance that made a fortune for Estee Lauder by making preservative free cosmetics. Cheap cosmetics have large amounts of it also and are responsible for the rosy cheeks that develop after you are sensitized to it. Skin is great for making you allergic to substances in life.
Another problem is that once you are allergic to it, you will develop a cross reaction to paba and benzoic acid structures. Multi-dose vials of medications contain this as a preservative and people that list multiple allergies are not actully allergic to the medication but to the preservative.

Here are the ingrediaents
Water, Glycerin, (Moisturizer) SD Alcohol 40, (Solvent) basically vodka

Sodium Calcium Alginate, viscous gum that is abundant in the cell walls of brown algae. It ranges from white to yellowish-brown, and takes filamentous, granular and powdered forms used for thickening

Oleyl fatty alcohol coming from inedible beef fat thickener

Sarcosin, crystalline nitrogenous substance, formed in the decomposition of creatin

Methylparaben, synthetic preservatives are used in 99% of the skin and hair products made today. Highly toxic and cause allergic/skin reactions. Recent medical studies indicate these chemicals are estrogenic. This means they mimic estrogen in the body with butylparaban being the most potent

Guar Gum, another thickening agent

Triethanolamine, pH balancer in cosmetic preparations in a variety of different products

Calcium Sulfate, Fragrance, Calcium Chloride,
Fumaric Acid, Boric Acid, pH adjustment

And you got this information from where? I'm going to guess it's not from any scientific source.

That's right. I hope Frank meoolowed out since then. He really needed to get a grip. He probably knows by now that whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger!
