Skin Care

There has been a lot of talk recently about parabens and other harmful chemicals in makeup and skin care. If you want to see how your favorite products measure up check out:

They also have a great article on sunscreens. Mineral sunscreens are better for you considering that the skin absorbs everything. One of my favorites is UV natural. A good friend turned me onto it one day at the pool and it works great with an excellent rating from ewg. It contains grape seed oil which is very nourishing for your skin. It is a little pricey but a little goes a long way with this pick. I have only found it in whole foods so far.
