Have you heard of the Environmental Working Group? They are a non-profit organization that research products that may threaten our health and the environment.

Oops – I meant to say Kiss My Face . Really, I am looking to try some great new products from Kiss My Face.
Kiss My Face was launched in a farmers feed-supply store in upstate New York 25 years ago. It has grown way beyond the pure olive-oil bar soap (which is to this day a top seller) it originally began with.
The line is famous for its Certified Organic Aloe Vera Toothpaste, Sugar Reef Organic Body Scrub and Lavender & Shea Moisture Shave. I don’t know what I should try.
It’s top sellers:
Sun Screen SPF18 with Oat Protein Complex

With all of the liquid soaps, gels, foams, and washes, I sometimes forget how much I love a simple bar of soap. I have been using a few wonderful soap bars – but they are not simple in the least. I am speaking of Pangea Organics Bar Soaps.
Each of Pangea Organic bars of soap is cold processed by hand, and custom blended with some of the best ingredients there are. And the cold process means that the benefits of such wonderful ingredients are not wasted by being boiled off.
There are 12 different bars to choose from:
AUSTRALIAN TEA TREE & LAVENDER
PYRENEES …read more
