DID YOU KNOW THAT LACTAID, SOME OF THE MAX FACTOR LINE, CHANEL LINE, SOME OF THE DIAL AND COAST BODY WASH PRODUCTS…MAY BE A PROBLEM FOR PESACH?  Rabbi Gershon Bess, Shlita has prepared the “5773/2013 Passover Guide to Cosmetics and Medications,” containing UPDATED information on thousands upon thousands of products, ranging from Tums and mouthwashes to moisturizing lotions, from body washes and shampoos to cold tablets, and from acne creams and makeup foundations to calcium tablets and azithromycin.

Rabbi Bess writes that HaRav Elyashiv, Z’tl, and yblch’t HaRav Wosner, Shlita, urged his continued publication of the List–both for reasons in Halacha and in Minhag Yisroel.  For questions to Rabbi Bess regarding the guide one may email rgbess@hotmail.com.  For the latest updates to Rabbi Bess’ list we refer you to www.kehilasyaakov.org.
