When you are trying to be a person who who knows, does it ever frustrate you when you can't read the ingredients on the label of products you buy? It sure frustrates me. I have often wondered if the natural bath products we buy that say natural on the front are actually natural at all. They could be lets say 50% natural, but the other 50% is chemicals and synthetics. They could be 50% natural and 50% products that are known to be a carcinogen. How do we really know?
Some of the things to look out for are over packaging, look for recycling on the label, look for sulfides and sulfates in the ingredients. Also read the fine print, they try to make it small so you won't notice what they are trying to get away with. Try to buy from a company that has a reputation for being ecologically friendly.
The best way that I have actually found to make sure that my natural bath products are safe is to make them myself. A lot of the ingredients can be grown right in your backyard, so that makes them free. You will be able to cater the ingredients to fit your particular skin type. You can also pick the aroma that you enjoy the most, then as your tastes change, so does the recipe. It is so easy to make your own natural bath products, I don't know why everyone isn't doing it.

Environmentally Friendly
With all the talk about going green these days it's no wonder that people have begun to find new ways to help the environment. One way that is truly simple and effective is by using natural bath and body products. They are not only good for your skin but also they don't contain any chemicals so the waste is all natural.
Take for instance lemon oil, it is known to have anti depressive effects. Lavender oil can be used on burns and minor cuts. Eucalyptus oil can be mixed with peppermint oil to form a great cold reliever. There are so many natural products that will do the job of most synthetic man made products that there is no need to keep on ruining the Earth as we know it.
Everyone wants to buy cars with low emissions, so that they don't make the hole in the ozone layer bigger. They want to use high efficiency washers so we don't use as much water. They want to have spare the air days, to help the environment. We carpool, take the bus, bike to work or even walk to work, all to help the environment. So I ask you is it too much to ask you to start using natural bath and body products so that harmful chemicals and synthetics won't go to waste? I think not.
