R & J Foundation was formed in 1995, and it is a 501-C (3) non-profit community service organization.
Our mission is to empower the public with Public Awareness information of the harmful effects of many everyday products.
Sharing with the general public what option they have in selecting toxic-free products.
These are products that will help rebuild our health without the use of prescription drugs that has so many side effects that can kill. Chemical poisons in cosmetics, personal care, and household products are affecting you and your children more than you may know.
According to the Poison Control Center in their most recent published report (1999)51, there are more than two million, two hundred thousand reported cases of exposure to poisonous substances annually. In this report, household cleaning substances are the number one source, responsible for more than 217,400 cases of exposure each year. Analgesics, primarily acetaminophen, are number two. The number three source is personal care products, which include cosmetics, at more than 205,200 exposures. Household and personal care products together are responsible for more than five times the number reported from pesticides.
For Children under the age of 6 years, the number one source of exposure is personal care products, including cosmetics (153,057), and the number two source is household cleaning substances (123,575). The Poison Control Center's 1999 report also detailed which types of products cause the most problems. Here are just some of them detailed in the personal care category: Perfume, cologne, aftershave (23,342) Toothpaste with fluoride (21,678) Nail products except polish (19,731) Nail polish (10,422) Creams, lotions, makeup (19,519) Soaps (16,631) Mouthwash (alcohol) (12,934) Deodorants (10,330) Suntan/sunscreens (8,330) Bath oil, bubble bath (8,260) Shampoos (8,136) Powders with talc (4,429) Lipstick, lip balms (3,395) Most men, women and children are exposed to at least half of these products every single day. Are you surprised that perfume, toothpaste, nail polish, creams, sunscreens and many other items, could really be TOXIC ? actually, the word poisonous?"The word nontoxic appears on many consumer products, but is misleading. According to the federal regulatory definition, nontoxic doesn't necessarily mean "not at all toxic" or "absolutely safe", but can mean, for example, that up to half of the laboratory animals exposed to the product through ingestion or inhalation died within two weeks.
A product can also be called nontoxic if no serious (immediate) damage occurred through eye or skin contact. These tests reflect only short-term health effects that may be associated with the product. Long-term or chronic effects are not considered."Debra Lynn DaddNontoxic, Natural & Earthwise,Jeremy P.

Our bodies are designed without flaw to heal itself and the only way that it begins to slow down and not perform the healing process correctly is due to weaken immune system.
The immune system will begin to get weakened by the environmental pollution and the product usage that has chemicals that are harmful, but allowed to be manufactured into almost every product that we buy.Everyone knows that when the immune system is overworked and weakened then it is fertile territory for any ailment, disease or death to take over.R & J Foundation, will plan these ongoing workshop to promote our mission. We will work with government agencies and community leaders to get our message promoted.
We are planning to help promote awareness of toxic chemicals in every day consumer products nationwide.

Should Micropigmentation Professionals Drop the 'Permanent' out of Permanent Makeup?
(ContentDesk) February 27, 2006 -- Quick! What do you think of when someone says "permanent"?
Do you think something is final, completed, over with, finished, not capable of being reversed and continuing unchanged?Webster's Dictionary defines permanent as 1) "Lasting or remaining without essential change"; and 2) "Not expected to change in status, condition, or place".
For this reason the terms "permanent makeup" and "permanent cosmetics" have come under scrutiny in the light of day, literally.
There are many things that adversely affect color tattooed into the skin which include pigment lightfastness and particle size, the amount of sunlight exposure, anti-aging preparations applied to the face, the body's immune system and metabolism.
