I tried dry brushing. Here’s what I think…

I remember the first time I was introduced to dry brushing. I booked a spa day for my birthday a few years ago and my esthetician began my treatment with the technique.

Talc used in Johnson & Johnson’s baby powder could cause cancer, at least that what a Los Angeles judge believes, finding the company guilty of “failing to adequately warn users of the cancer risks of the talc in its baby powder.” After being diagnosed with terminal ovarian cancer, 63-year-old Eva Echeverria, who had been using the powder in her underwear since she was 11, sued … Continue reading Woman Wins $417 Mil After Claiming Baby Powder Gave Her Cancer
