  1. Great list, very extensive! Another thing to remember is that your skin is your largest organ and what you choose to put on it. It only takes 26 seconds for chemicals to enter your bloodstream so it’s best to choose products that are labeled natural, organic & not tested on animals. Most ‘mainstream’ products found at Walmart, Target, CVS, Walgreens, Giant, etc, will contain chemicals, sulfates, parabens & many others but you can find natural products if you do your research and know where to look..& downloading the ‘Cruelty Cutter’ app can greatly help steer you on the right path: http://cruelty-cutter.org

      1. You’re quite welcome. I will say that as a guy I probably have more sites like yours than any other on WP. There is definitely a lot of competition and you will see them as I try not to over reblog but have had days where it is hard to write for me and I may do more. I also do the equivalence of a meet and greet where it is a really long award post where I name my own count of people and give an award, they do niot have to do it but having your name out there helps as well and you get to meet similar minded people and you certainly do not need to do anything, unless you want to. Thank you for your support 🙂

  3. I don’t wear makeup but none the less your blog was so interesting. I liked the cream face wash instead of Gel. I always find having a bottle of Liquid Witch Hazel is very handy for all facial problems. Many thanks.
