As i love aruba and its inhabitants (or at least the majority😝🤣), and love to inform and educate I have made a list with specific product information or say “ingredients” of ARUBA ALOE products which are toxic to humans and animals.

However, I can provide you with a general list of ingredients that are commonly considered toxic in cosmetic products, it is always recommended to check the product labels or consult with the manufacturer directly for accurate and up-to-date information. Here are some ingredients that are worth considering:

1. Parabens: Commonly used as preservatives (e.g., methylparaben, propylparaben). scientific studies suggest that parabens can disrupt hormones in the body and harm fertility and reproductive organs, affect birth outcomes, and increase the risk of cancer. They can also cause skin irritation.

2. Phthalates: Often found in fragrances and can be listed as diethyl phthalate (DEP), dimethyl phthalate (DMP), etc.

the top three categories for phthalate toxicity are cardiotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and nephrotoxicity and the most commonly caused diseases are cardiovascular, liver, urologic, endocrine, and genital diseases.

Phthalates, as endocrine-disrupting chemicals and SVOCs, are detrimental to the reproductive, neurological, and developmental systems of human from multiple exposure pathways. Children are at a higher level of exposure and more vulnerable to phthalates.

3. Formaldehyde: Inhalation of formaldehyde can cause airway irritation, bronchospasm, and pulmonary edema. Absorption of large amounts of formaldehyde via any route can cause severe systemic toxicity, leading to metabolic acidosis, tissue and organ damage, and coma. There is no antidote for formaldehyde.
Concentrations of 100 ppm are immedi- ately dangerous to life and health (IDLH). Note: The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers 20 ppm of formaldehyde to be IDLH. Workers can inhale formaldehyde as a gas or vapor or absorb it through the skin as a liquid.

4. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES): Foaming agents that can potentially cause skin irritation, hair loss. Due to its oil- and skin-stripping properties, it may clog pores and cause acne for people with sensitive or acne-prone skin. It can be harmful if swallowed and may cause eye, lung, and respiratory irritation.

5: Phenoxyethanol: Phenoxyethanol is used as a preservative in cosmetic products and also as a stabilizer in perfumes and soaps. Exposure to phenoxyethanol has been linked to reactions ranging from eczema to severe, life-threatening allergic reactions. Infant oral exposure to phenoxyethanol can acutely affect nervous system function.
In addition to these benefits, Phy-Et can cause toxic effects if inhaled, ingested or skin contact in high doses. These effects include skin, lung and liver irritation, kidney and nerve damage.

6. Synthetic Fragrances: Can contain numerous undisclosed chemicals and allergens.

7. Mineral Oil: A petroleum-derived ingredient that may clog pores and cause irritation.

8. Talc: Linked to potential respiratory issues when inhaled.

9. Sodium Hydroxide: Contact with very high concentrations of sodium hydroxide can cause severe burns to the eyes, skin, digestive system or lungs, resulting in permanent damage or death. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Repeated INHALATION of sodium hydroxide vapor can lead to permanent lung damage.

10.Phenoxyethanol is used as a preservative in cosmetic products and also as a stabilizer in perfumes and soaps. Exposure to phenoxyethanol has been linked to reactions ranging from eczema to severe, life-threatening allergic reactions. Infant oral exposure to phenoxyethanol can acutely affect nervous system function.
In addition, Phy-Et can cause toxic effects if inhaled, ingested or skin contact in high doses. These effects include skin, lung and liver irritation, kidney and nerve damage.

11. Triclosan: An antibacterial agent commonly used in soaps and cleansers.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed triclosan in August, 2012 and stated that while it is not known to be hazardous to human health, there are concerns about endocrine disruption and the possibility of resistant bacteria.

Remember that this list is not exhaustive, and the safety of ingredients may also vary depending on their concentration and individual sensitivity. It's always a good idea to read product labels, do your own research, and consult with a healthcare professional if you have specific concerns.
