How Safe Are Your Cosmetics?


Or for that matter anything you use on your body? Check the Cosmetic Safety Database by the Environmental Working Group to find out. What you find may shock you. But all for the better- then you can toss your old personal care items and replace them with ones that are safe as soon as possible. I know that safe cosmetics can be a few dollars more expensive, but it is certainly worth that money as opposed to exposing you and your family to toxins. Remember, anything that touches your body is absorbed by your skin. Think- foundation, lotion, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, eye cream, hair gel...get started in your bathroom cabinet. And don't forget to look up the products you are using on your baby or child- never assume they are safe!
