Here are the somewhat unsettling results of my inquiry about Old Spice deodorants. What's unsettling to me is that all this time I thought we were being safe by not using the antiperspirant kind!Campaign for Safe Cosmetics is the first place you want to go to find out how your particular cosmetic or beauty product is rated. From deodorants to eye shadow, this is an important resource for women and men. The campaign just completed an action which resulted in causing a major nail care products manufacturer to stop putting phthalates in their products.
Follow the link for the Skin Deep Report and if you get the page to sign up for updates, you can press the "no thanks" button and still access their pretty extensive database of product safety information.

Thanks for the info on CSC. Y'know, what really needs to happen is people need to re-evaluate their need for personal care items, other than the stuff that's needed to maintain good health.
Okay, okay, I'm a schlubby midle-aged guy, so I've never felt much need for this stuff anyway. but I use about five products -- toothpaste, lip balm, stick deoderant, bar soap, dandruff shampoo.
I don't think many people need more, except for medical conditions.
And a lot of women underestimate how good they look without make-up. That's my message to the world -- WOMEN, YOU PROBABLY LOOK PRETTY GOOD WITHOUT MAKE-UP!!!
So stop buying that crap.
Maybe there should be T-shirts saying "women, you probably look pretty good without make-up."
