Chemicals and toxins

Well after reading about the toxic chemicals and toxins we allow into our bodies and not realising it really shook me up, www.safecosmetics.org, check this out to see what we slap onto our bodies daily and poison it really.  I decided to look for better alternatives and I now dye my hair with Lush Ltd's Caca Marron Henna dye which has really brought my hair back to life.  You can get different coloured Henna, I did use blonde, and i like the red and the brown but i like this conker colour hehehe.  I now use many of their products but am always checking ingredients before hand to make sure that I know what I am using.  I used to use about 12 different make up products on my face every day from the age of 12 up to 30 which is a lot of chemical and toxins to accumulate in my body.  I now use a base of Charlotte's island, NVEY for eyes cheeks and lips and mascara so have reduced to 4 items which are safer alternatives to the big named brands you see on the highstreet.  Im still learning but urge family and friends to really look into what your putting on your self.  A very expensive shampoo I had which is well known, had petrol substance in it !! I mean come on do we really need petrol in our hair???
