Dangerous Ingredients - Several Potential Carcinogens
Not only did I not see any significant results with this bust cream (that is actually more of a balm than a cream) but it also contains several potentially harmful ingredients. As stupid as this may sound, I went ahead and tried the product anyway. Judge me as you wish, but please read this review and its entirety so that you may make a careful and truly informed decision on whether or not to purchase this cream.<br /><br />Before I discuss the ingredients, I'd like to discuss the product itself. The &#34;cream&#34; is very thick—like a lip balm. It smells sweet and soft, but it has petroleum undertones which concerned me a little. That's why I decided to research the ingredients. As for the effectiveness of the product, it does not deliver. I followed the instructions (that were clearly not written by a Native English speaker and are somewhat difficult to understand) and applied this cream twice a day for a week. After those 7 days, there were no significant results—no changes in breast size or firmness.<br /><br />Please, please, please do your research prior to buying cosmetics so that you know what you're putting on your body. Your skin is your body's largest organ and it absorbs these chemicals, which can lead to several health issues over long periods of use. The ingredients in this bust cream are highly questionable, ones that I would advise you stay away from.<br /><br />Around 33% of the ingredients in this bust cream are potentially harmful, especially for use on the skin. I've outlined the harmful ingredients below, so that you can make an informed decision.<br /><br />- Petroleum Distillates<br />Gasoline is a petroleum distillate, along with several other fuels including kerosene. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) states that petroleum distillates are exposed to the body via &#34;inhalation, ingestion, skin and/or eye contact and feature symptoms such as irritation of the eyes, nose, and/or throat; dizziness, drowsiness, headache, nausea; dry cracked skin.&#34; Petroleum distillates are a &#34;possible human carcinogen.&#34; They are actually prohibited or restricted for use in cosmetics in Europe.<br /><br />- Ceteareth-20<br />According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), Ceteareth-20 &#34;may contain potential toxic impurities such as 1,4-dioxane.&#34; The EWG also recommends that consumers stay away from products containing these ingredients, stating that it may have the potential to contaminate certain products with carcinogens. Any moisturizers that contain this ingredient should include a warning that it is not safe to use on injured or damaged skin. Unfortunately, this Jaowying Bust Cream does not contain any such warning.<br /><br />- DMDM Hydantoin<br />This ingredient was the most concerning for me. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), DMDM Hydantoin has been &#34;proven to be a human skin toxicant and allergen with strong evidence to approve such.&#34; Why a company would want to include this ingredient in a skin product is beyond me. It is a formaldehyde donor, which means it is a derivative of formaldehyde (embalming fluid). The chemical has been linked to allergies, chest pain, fatigue, depression, headaches, and may even cause cancer.<br /><br />Again, I cannot stress enough how important it is that you make informed decisions, especially when it comes to your body and health.<br /><br />* Product provided free of charge in exchange for an unbiased review.
