Today it's hard to find clean textiles; most of our textiles are full of endocrine disruptors. And we know that endocrine disruptors are, after all, bad.
For example, synthetic products contain formaldehyde (which, I've discovered after some research, the IARC has classified as a proven human carcinogen), and formaldehyde is found in many places: it makes clothes wrinkle-free, but above all, it's a dye fixer. Ah, the famous dye... That's why we strongly advise you to choose a product certified Oeko-Tex Standard 100 or GOTS (because yes, GOTS can also certify dyes and that the cotton is organic). Anyway, I'm getting off track.
We're putting cancer-causing products on our private parts. Because yes, most lace panties are synthetic. So, obviously, I'm advocating for my own business by saying that "yes, wearing organic cotton panties is better for your health," but it's also a fact.
I also discovered (because yes, I'm a bit naive) that some clothes contain flame retardants (I didn't know people enjoyed burning their clothes, but whatever), to prevent them from catching fire quickly, items are treated with a mixture of substances, grouped under the name polybrominated diphenyl ethers. You might think that's the end of it, but no, because in addition to remaining on the skin, these chemical substances are found in the blood. G.R.E.A.T.
Well, there are also heavy metals found in dyes (and that's bad, of course).
That's why ideally, it's better to choose an organic product, because the entire chain is clean, the product has never been polluted, and for certifications, always prefer a GOTS certification. Of course, organic comes at a cost, but we think that if we eat organic, we "pollute" ourselves less; we shouldn't forget that textiles also pollute...
