A lot of their products have parabens or sls. It's difficult standing in the store and trying to make out what all the ingredients are so I do all my research online before hitting the stores.Eden Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058596547565290014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-26186204776144983622010-10-27T11:25:52.679-03:002010-10-27T11:25:52.679-03:00I am impressed that you could even go into that st...I am impressed that you could even go into that store; I have to hold my breath when I walk past the local Lush store. I don't like strong fragrances - and prefer fragrance-free personal care products - so natural or not, that store's not for me. <br />I check everything I buy on the skindeep database of Environmental Working Group's site. It really is possible to buy natural products for all kinds of personal care, and brands such as Kiss My Face are not too pricey. (need to check each product though, because it seems no company's complete line is ttally clean)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-51976029240950244082010-10-26T12:32:25.634-03:002010-10-26T12:32:25.634-03:00Trying to find a natural bio-degradable shampoo is...Trying to find a natural bio-degradable shampoo is ridiculous! I'm diver so I see what non-biodegradable detergents do to life on the reefs in resort areas. Not good. I tried 7 stores last year and each time I asked the employees looked at me like I had 7 heads. The pharmacy had something like 32 different kinds of shampoo, each in several varieties. Not a single one was natural, once your read the label.

And it's not just the cosmetic industry...cleaning products claim to be "green" or all natural, but are not regulated and aren't required to display their ingredients!

The good thing about it is it lists the majority of products & their ingredients, with the sketchy ones highlighted in red. made it easier to pick out the ACTUAL natural products. very few, and I don't think any of the shampoos are SLS free.<br />Gad to hear about whole foods!Shawna @ My Nails Didhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17176592978365964221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-64533967488481968732010-10-24T01:13:08.590-03:002010-10-24T01:13:08.590-03:00It really is horrible, just how misleading the bea...It really is horrible, just how misleading the beauty industry is. Even worse, it seems in Australia at least, the only "pure" brands you can trust are super $$$. Which isn't great if you're not exactly rolling in money.
