Charlottechicken Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Clairehttp://www.itsnoteasybeinggreen.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5266&highlight=children might interest you Thanks for that link, Bron. I must put that forum on my favourites too! It is interesting what people have to say about those ingredients, although I must say I have awkward skin and the C&P does not do anything to irritate it, so those chemicals must be in small quantities, although it is useful to know they are there if I have any problems in the future. I am lucky in a way that my budget restricts me from trying everything on the market and I have to think long and hard about where I spend my money on things like toiletries, so threads like this are invaluble to me. If anyone knows of any 'greener' product than cleanse and polish that does the same thing, let me know! And Sarah, keep those recommendations coming!

The Dogmother Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Claire, have you tried Faith in Nature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Claire, have you tried Faith in Nature? I've actually never heard of them Clare , but that looks like a very absorbing website! Is there anything in their range you would recommend? I have really strange and sensitive skin though, and years ago when Lush started I won some of their fresh toiletries, and ended up with lumps and bumps all over my face and skin. I think it was the fruit (acid?)that was in them! Mind you I also came out in a nasty 'burn' effect after using something by Max Factor (had a really, REALLY red face for hours, looked like I had flash burns!). Now I stick to a cleansing bar and water! (and a bit of C&P!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I have bought products recommended by Omleteers, but they've been things like tea tree oil, borax and white vinegar. Gosh Sheila....sounds a bit harsh to put on your face Does it guarantee the lived in look :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Rosie uses their purifying facial wash - it's really gentle and totally natural. We also use their body wash/shower gel. Both are gentle and smell divine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
