No More Dirty Looks: The Truth About Your Beauty Products and the Ultimate Guide to Safe and Clean Cosmetics

The initial 20 pages veers dangerously close to scare mongering and then evens out into more palatable reading material. What defines this book is its concern with <i>clean</i> products as opposed to <i>green</i> products, taking care to highlight the difference clearly by defining (with academic research) why certain ingredients would be best avoided and why. While there are a few pieces of questionable advice (they argue certain synthetic ingredients are irritants.. and then suggest rubbing tea tree oil on your scalp and suggest using natural oils as a substitute SPF - scary advice indeed) there are also <i>a lot</i> of factors that make this book well worth reading. If you're concerned with ingredients, both synthetic and "natural," in your beauty products and you want to learn more and discover alternative options, this book is the one you need to read. <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6937345-no-more-dirty-looks?from_search=true" target="new"><i>No More Dirty Looks</i></a> offers great healthy eating advice, a list of alternative products to use, and offers up a quick reference "ingredients black list." However, take this book with a pinch of salt and don't be tempted to throw away all your beauty products until you've read more (unbias material) about the beauty industry.
