Use Safe Personal Care Products

There are about 10,000 chemicals and compounds in shampoos, soaps, lotions and cosmetics that we use everyday. Most of them have never been tested for safety.

Those that have been tested often contain unsafe ingredients to human health, such as those linked to cancer or disrupted hormones.

When these chemicals are washed down the drain , they eventually make to the water system and contaminate fish and other wildlife.

Many people are willing to spend more money on natural and organic shampoos and soaps. However, because of the lack of label regulation on personal care products, many “natural” or “organic” products are no different from the chemical ones.

You have to look hard to find a true organic product and understand where your body-care products come from.

Below are a few companies that are striving to provide true natural and organic products. Check them out.
