EWG's Skin Deep

I'm thoroughly delighted to find such thorough information at my fingertips! If you're concerned about the health, well-being and principles behind products, this is the the HUB where you should read up about cosmetic products before purchasing. Cosmeticsdatabase.com is part of the Environmental Working Group (EWG). Articles are based on scientific research, not mumbo-jumbo or hype about why you should buy this or that... if you really love research, check out the methodology section for graphs and math equations. I love the no-frills approach to details, especially about sunscreens and "designer fragrances". Enlightening. The small colored dots that rank sunscreens from safe to unsafe eliminates more than 1000 choices to a mere 100 or so, so as a wise consumer it can make choosing less daunting. Another perk of this website is that 8.5% of total purchase on Amazon will help support further research by EWR. Cosmetics research reflects a small segment of this organization's intention to enlighten others about our environment and each other within it. If you care about yourself, others and truly believe we can help make the world a better place, then you'll love this website.

It's an interesting concept to be able to discover what kind of ingredients are in your cosmetics, but a lot of the products I looked up weren't in the database.
