Pink Power for Breast Cancer Awareness Month
With the changing leaves, autumnal produce, and crisp weather ideal for outdoor workouts, October is undoubtedly one of our favourite months of the year. Apart from the fall festivities, October also marks the start of Breast Cancer Awareness month. According to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, it’s the second leading cause of death by cancer in Canadian women, affecting one in nine Canadian women during their lifetime.
At TO112, we’re joining the pink movement this month by donating 25% of the proceeds from our pink label hair line to leading breast cancer research organizations. Now, your mane won’t be the only one thanking you when you discover TO112’s 3-step hair ritual infused with tamanu and camellia oils.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s recent ban on a host of common ingredients in antibacterial soap reveals an ugly truth: the products that we trust the most are harming us. Many of the 19 banned ingredients, including triclosan and triclocarban, have been found to disrupt the body’s natural hormone cycles and cause muscle weakness. Additionally, several long-term implications of exposure to unsafe chemicals like these are still shrouded in mystery. After all, it was only in the last decade that the parabens and aluminum found in antiperspirants have been linked to breast cancer.
The team at TO112 is committed to inspiring complete harmony in mind, body, and space. For us, that means formulating a line of products that use the best of both science and nature to provide a rejuvenating and indulgent experience. Naturally, our lineup of hair, body, and lifestyle products are crafted from only the purest ingredients and are free of SLS, DEA and parabens. For extra measure, we’ve charged our entire line with 528 Hz, the frequency of love, to promote DNA repair and improved health.
