the ecomoderate

You may have noticed that I haven’t written in a week or so.  I have decided to take a much needed break after having my second daughter so I can return refreshed and full of ideas for you.  I’ll be back October 23rd.  Check back then for new posts on being eco-moderate.

Best Wishes,

Linda

Shopping for personal care products has not been my favorite thing to do recently. Although I utilize the EWG’s database, it’s impossible to remember which ingredients fare better then others, especially with names like imidazolidinyl.

I recently stumbled upon the Green Guide’s Smart Shopper’s Dirty Dozen Card. A nifty printable card that lists the 12 ingredients to avoid in personal care products. It’s perfect because I can print and cut it out and keep it in my wallet.  The Green Guide also has a great article about these chemicals and why they should be avoided.
