No More Dirty Looks: The Truth About Your Beauty Products And The Ultimate Guide To Safe And Clean Cosmetics (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
If you don't have the time or energy to research clean beauty products, have a feeling that most products marketed as natural and organic are lies, and resent/avoid wearing concealer (despite your obvious need to) because you know it's loaded with garbage, this is the book for you. Highly recommended.Most of the products mentioned here are pricey, but the authors make some more affordable recommendations and provide info on where to find them. It's nice that the bulk of this book isn't product recommendations, too, and they offer simple DIY alternatives to shampoo, conditioner, perfume, body scrubs, and a bunch of other items that will otherwise cost you a small fortune. Stock up on baking soda, coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil, and you're (mostly) set.A few important personal outcomes from this book:I haven't washed my hair in three days and it looks great.I'm considering a return to my vegetarian roots.I'm going to stop dyeing my hair and let the gray do what it wants to do (take over) - but don't hold me to that. I wasn’t expecting to like this book. Unlike most people I’m aware of how little the FDA regulates non-food items and so it came as no surprise to me that the manufactures were responsible for safety. (The same goes for dietary supplements people). However I hadn’t given as much thought to my cosmetics as I probably should have. The book was informative, easy to read and not too preachy. I’m cheap, hate shopping, and trying new beauty products, but this book gave me the extra nudge to start slowly adding clean products into my life.
