There's Lead in your Lipstick - Book Review

The other day, my friend Kim lent me her book called There's Lead in your Lipstick.  I've been wanting to read this for a long time, so thanks, Kim!

This book is written by Gillian Deacon, who is a cancer survivor who has researched the toxins that are included in all the things we use on our bodies.  Make-up, perfume, shampoo, body lotion, soap, deodorant, all that good girly stuff that we love!  This book is a comprehensive guide to making your way through the cosmetic industry, and is very helpful in making informed choices about what you buy to slather on your face or body or hair. 

If you're interested in a comprehensive list, you can also go to the Cosmetics Database to find a guide to all the products out there, and a rating of their safety level. 

I know both this book and the database will help me make more informed decisions as a consumer.
