Here’s an interesting site…(www.cosmeticsdatabase.com). It is an online safety guide for cosmetics and personal care products. The creators have researched hundreds of products and they fill in where companies and the government leave off: companies are allowed to use almost any ingredient they wish, and the government doesn't require companies to test products for safety before they're sold.

One of the core components of Skin Deep is an electronic product database that details ingredients in 31,141 products as of Jul 21, 2008. They obtained data for products from online retailers, from manufacturers who entered product information directly to the site (a tool they provide to companies who have signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics), and, to a lesser extent, through other methods described below. In most cases label information includes company, brand, product name, ingredients, warnings, and directions for use.

Use It At Your Own Risk…but, it could save your life.
