Link to A New Monthly Feature: Nearly Natural

While browsing the health and beauty section in Ross recently, I came up with what I think is a pretty fun idea for a new feature on the blog called Nearly Natural. So here's the deal- once a month or so I'll post a few pictures of products I've either seen while out or read about online whose ingredients aren't quite as safe as the product's brands/labels/packaging make them seem. I'm the worst about quickly skimming ingredient lists of products that boast the words "natural" and "organic" and doing little research before making a purchase. Hopefully these posts will make...

Link to Eco Store Lemon Cream Cleanser Review

I was thrilled when Eco Store USA offered to send me two products to try in exchange for a review on my blog, especially after checking out their products! Aside from Method (which doesn't really have the most impressively safe ingredients),natural and eco-friendly cleaning products are something that I haven't really devoted much time to trying. This seemed like the right time, so I chose the Lemon Cream Cleanser as my first product to review. Ingredients (provided at ecostoreusa.com)- "Water, Calcium carbonate (chalk), Plant based anionic surfactants, Plant based glycerine, Plant based thickener, Xanthum gum, Lemon verbena oil." I couldn't find this...

Link to Safe and Natural Feminine Wash: Does it exist?

A friend of mine recently came to me with a great idea for a post, so I did some research on on the topic and put something together that is hopefully both informative and helpful. She began with mentioning how she stopped using baby oil after her showers upon discovering that it was unsafe on the Cosmetic Safety Database (with it being a petroleum byproduct and all).  While browsing the CSD, she also discovered that the Summer's Eve Feminine Wash for Sensitive Skin that her friend had been using had all kinds of awful ingredients that you...

Link to Shielo Anti-Aging Complexion Scrub Review

Ingredients (provided at earthessentials.com)- “Water, Polyethylene, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Glyceryl Stearate, Panthelol, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil, Allantoin, Sorbitol, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, PEG-150 Distearate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Acrylates/ C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Disodium EDTA, Triethanolamine, Methylparaben, DMDM Hydantoin, Fragrance, Chromium Hydroxide Green.” I couldn’t locate this product on the Cosmetic Safety Database and, to be honest, I didn't bother looking up the all of the ingredients individually. Once I saw two of the ingredients that I usually try to avoid, Sodium Laureth Sulfate and Methylparaben, I figured that I'd be disappointed by a few of...

Link to a truly hairy situation

Allow me to preface this entry by saying I firmly believe that all the things we put on our bodies have just as much of an impact on our health and well-being as the things we put in our bodies. For the past two years or so, I had been passionately searching for a shampoo and condioner that satisfied, met, and maybe even exceeded all my expectations.  I was actually not asking for much. I just needed something free of parabens(a type of preservative) and sodium lauryl/laureth sulfates(a cleaning agent) that would also make my hair look fabulous. I learned very...
