Beware of companies that claim they have "natural" products. Be sure to check out their ingredient list and that will tell you if it is truly natural, or if it’s just a couple natural things mixed with a bunch of petro-chemicals. Some big chemicals to look out for that are classified as toxic are:
Mineral Oil
Petrolaum
Methyl, Propyl, Buytl and Ethyl Parabens
Imidazolidinyl Urea and Diazolidinyl Urea (AKA: Germall II and Germall 115)
Propylene Glycol
Retinyl Palmitate
Soduim Lauryl/ Laureth Sulfate (SLS or SLES)
Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)
Magnesium Silicate (TALC)
Diethanolamine (DEA), Monoethanolamine (MEA) and Triethanolamine (TEA)
Formaldehyde
Quaternium-15
Isopropyl Alcohol
Artificial/Synthetic Colors (labeled as FD&C or D&C, followed by a color and number)
Artificial/Synthetic Fragrances (labeled as "Fragrance")
PVP/VA Copolymer
Stearalkonium Chloride
Phthalate(s) – Common Names: DEHP, DINP, DBP, DEP, DIP

Those are just a few of the thousands of toxic synthetic chemicals that our goverment allows manufacturers of cosmetics and personal care products to put into their products.

To answer your question though, truly "natural" products have 100% natural ingredients (ingredients that are not synthetic and that are derived from the earth) and NO chemicals whatsoever. A couple good companies that stand up to their claim of having all-natural products are Aubrey Organics (www.aubreyorganics.com) and Terressentials (www.terressentials.com).

One of the definitions of Organic is: of, relating to, yielding, or involving the use of food or products produced with the use of feed or fertilizer of plant or animal origin without employment of chemically formulated fertilizers, growth stimulants, antibiotics, or pesticides.

Hope this helps.

What are the best natural makeup and beauty companies, in your opinion?

admin — Sat, 01 May 2010 23:46:21 +0000

I’m looking into using more natural skincare and makeup lines, and I’m wondering what you think are the best lines to use. I’m not talking about strictly organic, just lines that use less synthetic and unnecessary ingredients. I’ve been looking at Korres, Ojon, etc. Any suggestions would be great!

Almay, Bare Minerals, and definetly Physicians Formula.
For skin care, try Aveeno and Moonshine.
Awake is good too, you can get their stuff at Sephora. Korresis great! I have their lipbalm and it great! Also try Carol’s Daughter! Good luck, hope i helped!

Natural skincare tips?

admin — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 01:46:54 +0000

I’m trying to go all-natural with my skin-care regimen after learning about the potential hazards of cosmetics. I found out that avocado oil works GREAT as a natural skin moisturizer. I now use it in place of body lotion. It also makes a great eye makeup remover.

Has anyone else here discovered any other effective but natural ways to take care of one’s skin without resorting to chemical-laden skin care products? Please don’t give me tips that involve products with chemicals..only pure ingredients!!!

Do your self a favor, feels wonderful! Give your self a facial with beaten egg whites. Slightly beat a egg white till its frothy and then rub on face, leave it on till its dry! I love doing this, you can feel your face tighten up. When dry, pat off with a clean washcloth and warm water. Also heard that egg yolk is good for acne, never did try it so your on your own with that one.
