The Skin Deep Cosmetics Database- A Site You Must Know About!

By Healthy Darling · September 25th, 2012

While many people carefully think through what they put into their bodies, not many people are as concerned by what they put onto their bodies. The fact is, your skin is the largest organ of your body. What you put on your skin is also absorbed through your bloodstream and processed by your organs. Thus, it is important to be aware of the chemicals you may be ladening onto your body. Why is it important? Because chemicals can cause a host of ailments including even weight gain (who knew?!).

The EWG’s Skin Deep Cosmetic Database has catalogued all the most popular brand names of makeup, skincare, hair, nails, sun, fragrances etc, and tells you how toxic or benign your favorite products are. I suggest taking all of your daily products to the computer with you, entering each item into the database, and finding out its level of toxicity. Best of luck with this exercise!

Five berry hearts for this awesome site and service by  EWG’s Skin Deep Cosmetic Database!

      Sure, race does not determine one’s inmoce, that is true, and yes the article is directed at white middle class society, that much is obvious. But indirectly race does determine how well one does even today. When people of a certain race start in a lesser neighborhood with lesser education and lesser support, they have a hard time doing better than what’s expected of them. (And because of that a place like D.C. is going to have a hard time improving their education system.) Then those same people really do become a product of their environment and do badly in school, get bad jobs for low pay, and in turn have a difficult time helping their own children do better than they did when they can hardly help themselves, and so the cycle continues. When the average white person earns about $95,000 more than the average black man, you can’t tell me that race does not, in some way effect their inmoce.
