Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Hi Deb, You can check out this website: http://www.ewg.org/reports/skindeep/ You can look up specific brands, or specific ingredients to find out how safe they are to use. I have not found my perfect natural makeup, so I'm going without for now. But I will say that my latest " find " in the natural cosmetics department is the use of the " crystal stick " deodorants. It's basically a block of salt that you wet and rub on. But it's been the very best odor control I've tried from both conventional and natural deodorants. hth, Marla On 9/23/06, Deb Comcast <deborah.harper@...> wrote: > > What do you use for natural makeup and where did you find it?

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Hi Marla, Where do you buy the crystal stick deodorants? Name brand? I tried 's tea tree deodorant stick. Leaves my pits feeling sticky, doesn't last (have to use twice a day), and since shaving, my armpits have been red and peeling when I use this product. I saw the salt stick on a website in the UK, but my husband said it would cost $25.00. I need a replacement ASAP. Thanks, Beth Re: [ ] natural makeup Hi Deb, You can check out this website: http://www.ewg.org/reports/skindeep/ You can look up specific brands, or specific ingredients to find out how safe they are to use.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Oh my goodness, that's expensive! I buy mine at the regular ol' health food store (I'm in the US). The brand I use is Thai, but I think it probably doesn't matter as long as it's a salt block. It also comes in a spray form, but to my way of thinking, if you buy it like that you are paying for the water. hth, Marla On 9/23/06, Beth Fish <bethafish@...> wrote: > > Hi Marla, > > Where do you buy the crystal stick deodorants?

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2006 Report Posted September 24, 2006 Thanks, Marla! I'll try looking at Whole Foods. My mom thought that the salt would be hard on clothes. Have you noticed a problem? Beth Re: [ ] natural makeup Oh my goodness, that's expensive! I buy mine at the regular ol' health food store (I'm in the US).

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2006 Report Posted September 24, 2006 Hi Beth, yes, Whole Foods should definitely carry it. I've not noticed any problems with the clothes, but we don't wear anything fancy or expensive. We wear mostly cotton here. Oh, well I've noticed no problems when wearing a sleeveless shirt and my leather jacket. Marla On 9/24/06, Beth Fish <bethafish@...> wrote: > > Thanks, Marla! I'll try looking at Whole Foods.
