    Me too. Changed my skin care and hair care with all of this in mind. Amazingly, they still sell skin and hair care products with glycols at Whole Foods.

    Absolutely, it's surprising how many products still contain ingredients like glycols even in stores known for their healthier options. It's always a good idea to carefully check the labels and opt for more natural alternatives. I've recently started shopping online for my skincare and haircare needs and found a great selection of glycol-free products on BigBasket. They offer a variety of options that are both effective and free from harmful chemicals.

    Ethylene glycol will kill you if you drink it. Which is probably why it isn't added to food or skin care products.

    Propylene is used in such, and as a laxative in large amounts. With a healthy liver and kidneys, it should only be an issue if injected. Europe is stricter in food uses and levels, and we should all eat less processed foods.
