I have been hesitant about buying makeup since, well, I went a bit overboard in the glitter department in middle school. I don’t really wear it that often, but I’m interested in investing in some nice new stuff. The problem lies in searching for products that are eco-friendly AND good for my health. How do you google that without sifting through message boards galore? Well, I just found this website called Good Guide, they rate everything from food and personal care products to cleaning products and toys. They rate products on three scales from 1-10: Health, Environment, and Society (ethics, safety, etc). They allow for user reviews and you can purchase many of the products from links off the site. They also go a bit further and clear up some common myths about ingredients and production and help make being conscious about what we buy a bit easier.  So c’mon consumer America, jump on board! Find out where your money goes.
