NEW: Have a question?  I've added a new Q&A forum to our Chemical of the Day Blog.  Now you can ask about products, ingredients, and my recommendations and I'll answer them for everyone!  Check out some of the highlights below: 
 Alicia asks:
Q.  My question is actually in regards to 2 of the ingredients...Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate and Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). Any ideas? Thanks!

 
A. That's a great question.  MSM is not a dangerous ingredient; in fact many people take is as a supplement to improve joint health.  Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate scores a 0 in the Cosmetics Database, but I'm hesitant to give it a passing grade just yet. Read the full answer.
Mel Asks:
Q. I have noticed that citric acid is in quite a few "natural" products. From shampoo to bar soap. Is it bad for you? It always seems to appear at the bottom of the ingredient list....so I am guessing that there are minimal amounts of it. Just curious....Thanks!!

A. Citric acid is a weak acid present in all citrus fruits; it's what gives citrus that nice sour zing!  If it were dangerous, we couldn't eat oranges!  As a cosmetic ingredient, it depends on how it's used. Read the full answer
Karen Asks: 
Q. Could you please tell me if this ingredient that I am finding in products is Non-comedogenic: Capric/Caprylic triglyceride. I can not find the answer to my question anywhere. If you know, please reply. Thank you so much.

A. Hi Karen, Okay, here's the scoop... Capric/Caprylic triglyceride, as you've probably found out through your research, is also known as fractionated coconut oil. What does fractionated mean?It basically means separated. Coconut oil is a very complex oil...Find out if it clogs pores here.
