A several years ago I started trying to find natural alternatives for all of the cosmetics and individual care products that I and my kids use. I speedily realized just how frustrating it can be to find truly natural products and to learn about which ingredients are considered the safest and most natural. When reading labels you'll find that many cosmetics and body care products sold as organic or natural, even at natural food & health stores, contain questionable ingredients such as parabens, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfates and artificial fragrances.
