Safer Cosmetic Products

Studies are telling us to avoid phthalates in our fragrances, deodorants and lotions. Manufacturers only have to list the word “fragrance” on their products because the formulas are considered “trade secrets”. A group called Health Care Without Harm has put out a free “Shopper’s Guide to Safe Cosmetics” at www.ewg.org/skindeep/cr.  They also maintain a database with safety ratings of more than 14,000 personal care products including lipstick and face cream. You can find this at www.ewg.org/skindeep/cr.  From Consumer Reports, Winter 2007.
