This website is one of the reasons I wanted to start this blog- because there are many great websites that I love and that are so helpful. You can search soap, shampoo, nail polish, make up, etc. products and see how safe this esearch group deems them to be.

"Skin Deep pairs ingredients in more than 25,000 products against 50 definitive toxicity and regulatory databases, making it the largest integrated data resource of its kind. Why did a small nonprofit take on such a big project? Because the FDA doesn't require companies to test their own products for safety."
Learn what you are exposing your body to from the things you use on a daily basis (scary!!). It will list for you ingredients in this product and what they are linked to- i.e. cancer, reproductive toxicity, violations, restrictions & warnings, etc. Then it will give a rating to each of the main ingredients with its hazard score- i.e. fragrance (which you will find in almost everything!) is completely unregulated and can be a coverup for all sorts of dangerous things. It has a hazard score of 8 out of 10- high and very dangerous.
Or, if you want to find the safest kind of shampoo, for instance, search shampoo and then sort by "hazard score".
