Organic Bathroom Products
What is an organic bathroom product?
Organic bathroom products are products that are made with ingredients that are organic, which means that the ingredients haven't been treated with pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, sewer sludge fertilizers or any other chemicals like that.
What organic bathroom products are available?
There are a lot of products that are more environmentally friendly. You can find lotions, more natural toothpaste, shampoo, soaps. Almost all toiletries have a more Earth-friendly option.
Where can I buy organic bathroom products?
Organic bathroom products are pretty easy to find. You can find them at most stores, your local drugstore, online. So it is a pretty easy switch to make if you are already using certain toiletries, to switch to something that is better for the earth.
Are bathroom products made from recycled material available?
You can actually buy razors and things like toothbrushes that are made from recycled yogurt cups. They're doing a lot with recycled material, so try to see if that would be available. You might find those more in your health food stores.
What are the benefits of organic skin care products?
Conventional skin creams and lotions can contain a lot of chemicals. They use those to extend the shelf life. Buying organic skin creams and lotions will decrease your skin's contact with all of those chemicals. It's especially good if you have children whose skin might be more sensitive. Another thing to think about is a lot of skin care products use mineral oil, and that is a petroleum based product, which is a non-renewable resource. Using something that has different oils that are more renewable is a good thing for the Earth.
Can I make my own skin care products?
There are many oils that are found naturally and food that is actually very good for your skin. You can find more information on the Internet about how you may use those things, and it can also be very cost effective.
