Are Your Products Safe?


Are your cosmetics and skin care products safe? Sure, it's the one you saw advertised on TV ... it's a brand name and you even paid extra for it! But -- do you know how safe it really is? How does it compare to other products?

Thanks to the Cosmetics Database you can now find out! Just visit Cosmetic Safety Reviews (click it to see it) and you can search and compare your makeup, soap, hair care, fragrances, and all your other cosmetic, nutritional, and skin care products to see how they rate in the safety database!

This database is kept current by the non-profit group, Skin Deep. "Skin Deep pairs ingredients in more than 41,000 products against 50 definitive toxicity and regulatory databases, making it the largest integrated data resource of its kind."

Give it a try and you'll likely be very surprised. When I searched it, I found many of the "high quality" skin care products I used actually rated very poorly for safety!
