Heathy and safer living

Is a beautiful face worth it?

Are you aware that the cosmetic industry is an 8 billion dollar one? The products don't always have the ingredients listed or what grade the ingredient is.
A bill in CA will require cosmetics companies to disclose to the DHS any ingredients and their concentrations that are linked to cancer and birth defects. It is about time that someone is doing something about it.

There are companies that are willing to make the changes and to implement changes in the chemicals that are used in their products. I know that those are companies that I would more than likely buy from. Some of the companies are the Body Shop, Zia Natural Skincare, Jason Natural Cosmetics, Burt's Bees, Kiss My Face, Avalon Natural Products and Aubrey Cosmetics.

One owner has decided to use grapefruit seed extract as a preservative in cosmetics instead of parabens.

Fillers are in most personal care products that offer no therapeutic benefits.

I don't want to use products that I don't know what is in them? I also don't want to use those products on my children. Why should we settle for those when there are other things out there for us to buy.

Ask me about those types of products, I know of a great company that offers them.
