Parabens are
chemical preservatives which were discovered in the 1920s.
They are
good preservatives, which can prolong the shelf-life of cosmetic
products - for more than five years.
Whether
parabens are really harmful or not are being debated at the moment -
and in particular whether there is a link between parabens and breast
cancer.
The
debate is likely to go on for years, but there are some studies which
are indicating that they could be potentially harmful.
