yes.

Doctor, are you Dr. House ? ;-p

John, i think you may be right, i am still working on it and try to find an answer.

After i read some comments on The Poisoner's Handbook, i decided not to buy this book. (see comments from Valentin Rodionov) .............. Most, if not all of the chemistry (and physics) in this book is entirely disconnected from the reality of science. Blum's treatment of poisons, analytical procedures and basic science ranges from simple misstatements, inaccuracies and misunderstandings to statements that are outright wrong. Some of these are listed below: * The action of mustard chemical warfare agents has nothing to do with "becoming a ferocious form of sulfuric acid". Mustards act through alkylative damage of DNA (and other biomolecules). * Sodium carbonate is not an acidic chemical. * HCN is not a "potent acid". * No additional source of hydrogen is needed to perform a Marsh test for arsenic. * It is not likely that arsenic compounds will crystallize in the tissues of a poisoning victim. * The Reinsch test is not a simple color test, as is implied by Blum's description. This is according to Gettler himself: [...] * Electrical current is not measured in volts. * Blum's description of radioactive decay, to borrow a phrase from Wolfgang Pauli, "is not even wrong". This list is by no means comprehensive - these are just some of the many cringe-inducing parts in the book. .......... http://www.amazon.com/The-Poisoners-Handbook-Forensic-Medicine/product-reviews/014311882X/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt_sr_1?ie=UTF8&filterBy=addOneStar&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending

what if it would take weeks / months for my skin to absorb the ENOUGH dose to re-induce the symptom ? i jumped from doctor a to doctor b then a dentist who had no idea at all !

After i stopped applying this hand cream to my face the symptom of my swollen salivary gland slowly subsided. WOW !

i wonder why most of actresses dont have any acnes on their face after long time heavy make up. Thanks for their good skin ?

ok, not against rules here. my evidence is what i heard from friends, what i saw on TV and what i find out...even in Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SK-II i dont understand why it (and the products alike) is still in the market. the thought that i want to learn how to read labels in products does make sense to me.

ok, nobody believes it, but it really happens around me.. although there are so many complaints.on those famous skin care products, the horrible thing is those products are still in the market. if i list the product brands, i guess it is against rule here ? so i give it up.

i just read this : The Environmental Working Group (EWG) did a study which found the average person in the US uses 15 body, skin and hair products daily. (I’m struggling with this estimate. Do you believe it? I use a handmade soap and little else. The amount of toxins absorbed through the skin and lungs from the daily use of 15 products is downright scary!) The EWG estimates that one in five products used on the skin contains an ingredient which is a suspected carcinogen. This means that most people in the US use at least three products on a daily basis which contain a potential carcinogen. Believe it or not, many of the ingredients used in skincare products – and approved for use by the FDA – undergo little or no testing prior to approval. http://goodworkswellness.com/top-ingredients-to-avoid-in-skin-care-products/

i am asking why the link given claims H2O is dangerous,,,? because i feel so funny. @.@ later i find it is just ' H20 hoax ' .

did i ask H20 is a harmful ingredient ??

dihydrogen monoxide is water, right ? H20. how come this link claims H20 is dangerous : http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html 'Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment. Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:...; H2O, WATER, we drink and use everyday.... hello H2O ~~~~

although i am not experiencing any adverse effect from skin care products, i really want to know how to tell the irritant or not healthy ingredients when reading label, such as separating the good alcohols from bad and avoiding mineral oil....petrolatum..(but i am not 100% sure i am correct or wrong, so willing to share with you and discuss about it.) i am not here to be sarcastic or critical about skin care products, but we should be aware that some products have adverse effect on skin in long time in particular once users stop using it. for example, some products include estrogen/steriod or the like...but i dont know their chemical names, that's why i am here to ask... Enthalpy, you no need to be cynical and oversensitive, be nice. 1.for lower cost and longer shelf life.2. attracting customers by developing skin-whitening & rejuvenating effect which may be harmful to health, etc. i am curious what skin care products are you guys using ? i once used Johnson's baby milk lotion.

could anyone help me check these ingredients below to see whether there are any harmful skin care ingredients included ? thanks . - Aqua; Glycerin; Hydrogenated Palm glycerides; Dimethicone; - Cetearyl Alcohol; Ethylhexyl Palmitate; Sodium Cetearyl Sulfate; Propylene Glycol; - Chamomilla Recutita(Matricaria)Flower Extract; Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice; - Tocopheryle Acetate; Bisabolol; Phenoxyethanol; Methylparaben; Ethylparaben; - Propylparaben; Parfum(Fragrance) can anyone give me some further advice about how to tell whether the skin care cream includes any harmful ingredients ? thanks again.
