Green Options

Peace Keeper Cause-Metics is the first cosmetic company to give ALL after tax distributable profits to Women’s Health Advocacy and Human Rights Issues. And the news keeps getting better, all Peace Keeper products have:

“no fd&c coloring, no animal testing, no artificial colors, no artificial fragrances, no toluene, no formaldehyde, no acetone, no phthalates, no parabens, no synthetic preservatives, no mineral oil, no lanolin, no sodium lauryl, no sodium sulfate, no gluten”

The company’s website lists all ingredients and the Skin Deep rating for each product.  The current product line up includes: nail polish (skin deep rating 3), lipstick (skin deep rating 1), lip gloss (skin deep rating 1), lip balm (too new, not yet rated), and nail polish remover (too new, not yet rated).

As Moms we spend an incredible amount of time to ensure health and safety for our children.  Are we doing the same thing for ourselves?  Afterall, leading by example is the best thing we can do.  This has left me in search of new products for home and body.   I recently received 15 samples of Alima Pure Cosmetics and I’m in love. 

When a talented friend and associate, Marcia Yerman, who happens to be an advocate for women’s issues insisted we consider featuring Jody Weiss, founder of PeaceKeepers Cause-Metics in Relevant Times last year, I paid attention. There are so many reasons to be amazed by Ms. Weiss and the wonderful ’cause-metics’ she has produced - great, natural AND benefiting women and the world in many ways . . .

Then, when we got some samples to play with, and I was really impressed!
