I keep hearing that bath and body products are very toxic. Is there any scientific proven studies or evidence that link their ingredients to lung cancer / respiratory problems or it can be used in moderation just like most things. We breathe in VOCs in alot of things outside air , furniture, trees etc so it’s kinda hard to avoid it completely but I want to know if it’s ok to use them in moderation like the plug ins or candles for a couple hours of the day. if not, what less toxic plug ins or wax melts do you use for your home?

Any obgyn can offer me advise ? From I was a teen I’ve been having excruciating cramps and heavy bleeding every month. Recently the cramps have got even worse I had to take 3000mg naproxen in one day and it still didn’t help. I did an ultrasound at my gyn and they found fibroids, a cyst and Adenomysis. The doc said it’s also growing on my uterus and the only way to remove it is to a hysterectomy but because I’m only 25 my insurance will be hesitant to do this because I’m young and I would be infertile. For reference I absolutely DONT want kids. Any advice as to what I can do to get this surgery done???

Not sure if anyone on this threads had been diagnosed with this but from I was a teen I’ve been having excruciating cramps and heavy bleeding every month.

Looking to transition from bbw candles after learning how toxic they are. I found this brand called happy wax that sells wax melts . I emailed them to ask if their products are free of Phthalates , parabens, carcinogens and Formaldehyde etc.

Their response was : Our product is free of parabens, paraffin, and phthalates. Our fragrance is compliant under California's Proposition 65 and does not require a Prop 65 warning label for formaldehyde, carcinogens, or ingredients causing reproductive harm (our product requires no warning label under Prop 65). We adhere to the strict standards set by the IFRA. Yes, our products are considered non-toxic and safe to use as directed in normal household conditions. If you have specific health related concern, we always recommend checking in with a trusted medical professional.

I booked a table assembly job on task rabbit and when the tasker came and was already into my office, she informed me that she is billing me for two hours even if she takes less than the hour time I booked to do the job. She didn’t inform me before coming to do the job only only on the spot and asked us to send her the remainder payment by Zelle. Due to the nature of the situation in the moment and her aggression , we felt in harms way and agreed to get her to calm down. We ended up having to pay for the additional hour outside of the app. We want to report it to Taskrabbit but fear that they might ban her or Inform her of the incident or take back the money from her and she knows our location. Like how I always see door dash drivers going back to peoples address when they make a report

Long story short, FN sent me some defective clothing and I returned it but they issued store credit instead of refunding my after pay. After pay says they can’t control that. I understand the store credit policy however this wasn’t a standard return of buyers remorse the items were defective. If I dispute with my bank will I be banned from afterpay?

Any other importers dealing with the outrageous shipping prices rn? We usually ship 40 hq containers for $2,700 usd the price is now $7,300!!! So for us to ship three containers we would be paying $13k increase all because of this stupid war ! But the higher ups won’t care that it affects small businesses and we can’t just increase price on customers

Any fellow importers here that import containers from China ? Just got a quote for 6000 usd — nearly triple what I paid in January. Wondering how other small importers are dealing with it. Grouping with others? LCL? Just eating the cost?
