Another safety reminder: non-organic cosmetics have lots of bad crap in them. Also notes that high street cosmeticaliths The Body Shop, Burt's Bees, Kiss My Face, Aubrey Organics and Avalon Natural Products have all committed to making sure none of the big nasties make their way onto your face. Still, a good time to revisit Hippyshopper's health and beauty, and to visit Hippy sister sites Kiss and Makeup Natural Cosmetics category or the green beauty at Bridalwave. The downside is that the natural lipsticks in particular tend to not be as long wearing as the chemistry set variety. Has anybody found a good solution to this? Answers in comments would be delightedly received. [GT]
