Re: Need recommendations for chemical-free products

[Guest guest]

I like Logodent toothpaste (flouride free) for the kids and Tom's of Maine for myself (the flouride and SLS free kind). I usually use Seventh Generation Cleaning products (dishwasher detergent, spray cleaner) although I also use a lot of vinegar and water. I like California Baby bath soap for the kids; I use a shea butter soap from Whole Foods for myself. For lotion, I use raw, organic coconut oil (find it in the baking section at Whole Foods). For sunscreen, I like Lavera SPF 30.The cosmeticdatabase.com is a searchable site where you can input the products you're using now to see if they are toxic or not.On May 23, 2010, at 8:09 PM, valoriclemens wrote:

Hi everyone!

I realized the title of my last message may have sounded like I was trying to sell something. Could any of you (ladies especially) give me some recommendations for personal care and cleaning products? Burt's Bees Wax? Kiss My Face? Seventh Generation? What about toothpaste? I went to the health food store and looked at the ingredients of some of these products and they still had a lot of things I didn't recognize in the ingredients. A few suggestions would be great! (Hopefully products that are not too pricey).

Thanks so much!

Something y'all may be interested in:  The Environmental Working Group recently analysed sunscreens and cosmetics for harmful ingredients; I think they may have done the same for the chemicals/pesticides in our food.  You can find the results on their Website:  http://www.ewg.org/

For a direct link to the sunscreens:  http://www.ewg.org/2010sunscreen/And here's a direct link to the cosmetics: http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/
