Hi
I was wondering what type of soap do you use? makeup? hair care and skin care can you use that does not have all those bad chemichals for you.

but that is also easlily purchased and not an arm and leg for . That you also get the same good results for.

Thanks so much

I would start with www.ewg.org's cosmetic database. Look up your current stuff to see how bad it is and then search for a lower number offender.

For skin care and hair care, I've found frugal, non-chemical items I can use from my kitchen, amazingly enough. There are tons of websites you can research for ideas. It's all natural, and dual-purpose.

The best natural beauty product line is Arbonne. It is a little pricy but it is very good for your skin and the environment. Most beauty product are made from left overs from butchered animals but this is not - all natural and has no mineral oil in it which is also very bad for your skin and body. If you can find a consultant who sells it near you you can have a party and get $250 worth of free product! They have everything from shampoo to makeup to creams and lotions. I use it and I love it!

EWG's skindeep website is great for seeing what is in your cosmetics. I love EWG's website period.

BTW, if anyone orders online, I order stuff from Drugstore.com. They are a lot cheaper than what I can buy at my local health food store plus I sometimes get free shipping and no tax! We have a water softener in our home so a little shampoo and soap go a long way.

Another website I like is Cancer Awareness, Search for the Cause Campaign. Checkout their dirty dozen link!
