I help optimize hormone balance in women with bioidentical hormones. This article is very pertinent. I see women who cannot shed the weight (due to extra estrogen, among other reasons). Some of the ingredients in cosmetics disrupt hormones (female hormones AND thyroid hormone). The environmental working group has a search engine where you can look up how safe your cosmetics are: http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/index.php?nothanks=1 The breast cancer foundation group also talks about endocrine disruptors: http://www.breastcancerfund.org/site/c.kwKXLdPaE/b.3959179/k.1148/Overview_Endocrinedisrupting_Compounds.htm Please be mindful of these chemicals.

I still haven't found a foundation or powder that is organic that I like, but I do like the Bare Essentials line. I saw you over at Kristen's and smiled....good for you! Loved learning more about you. Kellie,
