Default False advertising on natural skincare products

According to this article, the following products that are represented as being natural and free of toxic chemicals actually contain a carcinogenic chemical called 1,4-Dioxane. Please choose your products carefully, and know what you are buying. I know that I will. http://www.foxnews.com/bloghealth/?b...R1v6GHdP9Zdm1e

Is there anything specific that would be a warning flag? How can we know what is a scam and what is the real deal?!

Many naturally occurring substances are carcinogenic if they reach certain levels in the body. Are these ingredients carcinogenic upon initial exposure, or do they have to build up in the body?
