Mosisturizers
I use Nivea body mosturizer, in the ingredients there is preservative Methyl paraben. Is it a carcinogenic compound? Should I use it or need to use any other body mosturizer without parabens.

When a doubt arises , change the moisturiser. Venusia body lotion or Dermadew aloe lotion shoo be fine. Consult me online if required.
