Personal care products are consumer products which are applied on various external parts of the body such as skin, hair, nails, lips, external genital and anal areas, as well as teeth and mucous membrane of the oral cavity, in order to make them clean, protect them from harmful germs and keep them in good condition. They promote personal hygiene and overall health, well-being and appearance of those body parts. Toiletries form a narrower category of personal care products which are used for basic...
An old roommate had a shampoo bottle in the shower declaring “Now with aminoproteins!” I have no idea what that means. Nor did she. We’re both chemists.
Makers of bar soap sometimes find it necessary for me to know that the soap is “French milled”. I see this sometimes in the little soaps they give you in hotels. I think it means it’s been pressed through rollers a few times. I also think nobody cares.
I’ve only used rosewater in food, but I guess some people use it as a perfume so it can count here. Check this out: https://www.amazon.com/Heritage-Products-Rosewater-Petals-8-Ounces/dp/B001H54VJI
Superior Ingredients: Purified Water*, Vegetable Glycerin, and Hydroessential Rose (Rosa Damascena). ***Water (Vor-Mag) has been vortexed and magnetized to raise the energy to a higher vibration that we believe to be more beneficial. **
I made some sort of pistachio rosewater pudding with it. AFAICT it did not raise my energy to a higher vibration.
What do you see on products you buy/use/encounter that gives you a puzzled chuckle?
So, you’re still just at the 49th vibration , like the rest of us?
As to the question at hand, I remain absolutely gobsmacked that the current state of our world allows/necessitates statements like these:
“Do not take this medication if you are allergic to this medication.”
“… or any of its ingredients.”
Who checks the ingredients of every medication they take?
I’m trying to figure out what an “ingredient found in jellyfish” has to do with an alleged memory aid, especially since jellyfish don’t have brains.
That ad always makes me think of that 1959 Roger Corman film The Wasp Woman , in which a cosmetics executive starts using some sort of wasp extract and turns into the titular half-wasp, half-woman* . I imagine dialogue like this:
“Where’s grandpa? I haven’t seen him since he got back from the drugstore?”
“I think he’s still in his bedroom.”
“That’s odd. He’s been in there an awfully long time.”
(Sounds of sloshing and wet slurping from behind the door)
*(although nowhere near as interesting as the poster image)
The Wasp Woman (also known as The Bee Girl and Insect Woman) is a 1959 American independent science-fiction horror film produced and directed by Roger Corman. Filmed in black-and-white, it stars Susan Cabot, Anthony Eisley, Michael Mark, and Barboura Morris. The film was originally released by Filmgroup as a double feature with Beast from Haunted Cave. To pad out the film's running time when it was released to television two years later, a new prologue was added by director Jack Hill.
