You may be surprised to learn that not all cosmetics and personal care products have ingredients that are safe. To learn more about this visit Skin Deep. Also, do not believe manufacturer claims that something is "natural." On skin care products this claim is meaningless. By law, there are no labeling standards for it.

Try using simpler ingredients for daily care and personal hygiene. Olive oil, liquid Castile soap, herbs, beeswax, cocoa butter, henna powder, and some foods can also be used to strengthen hair, beautify skin and prepare homemade cosmetics.
