I'm not sure who posted about moisturisers containing parabens the other day, and can't find it now, but there was an interview on breakfast radio the other day about it.  I think the interviewee was from SAHMRI (but didn't really catch it properly) and she was talking about chemicals in cosmetics that are known endocrine disruptors, specifically parabens and phthalates (often hidden under the title "fragrance").  It was a puff piece on the radio but just thought I'd mention it as whoever posted the original comment was in a discussion with her oncologist about it.
