Cosmetics Database

This week has been pretty crazy. It is the first week of March and there are so many birthdays coming up. Happy birthday to all the March babies.
The week was busy, busy, busy!

I uploaded all of the Castle Baths products onto Compact. It is a database through http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com. Basically, companies who sell bath products and skin care products, or anything skin related for that matter, can team up with this website and upload products and ingredients to the site. It then takes the ingredients and scores them accordingly for different things. The lower the number, starting at 0(zero), the safer the product is. It also tells you if the product contains any ingredients that may cause skin conditions, cancer, or anything else of that nature. It's a really cool website. And It's open to the public.

Now, I want you to do a little test. Go to the website. http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com and put in the search field any company that you may use for your skin care products. Examples include Lush, The Body Shop, Avon, Mary Kay and Murad. Look at the numbers and preview their products and look at what it says about them. Then, I want you to search Castle Baths.

You will see a major difference. And this is exactly what I have been preaching for years now. If you decided to go the extra step and search Bath and Body Works, let me guess, you found nothing! This is probably because they refused to sign the compact for safer cosmetics.

After looking into these companies that claim to be natural and safe and find that they really aren't and that a lot of thier stuff causes cancer, I am disgusted. It's no wonder the generations of today are looking older and older instead of retraining their youth. Companies are more concerned with getting the dollar then they are of keeping America healthy.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend and week to follow!

Next Postings: Peta and Leaping Bunny. Fantastic information, stay tuned!
