"I am an online retailer of fine skin care, hair care and cosmetic products. Unfortunately, it seems one has to be a chemist now to determine what exactly is going into these products, and hence onto your skin ! Some of the ingredients are truly frightening....lead, mercury, formaldehyde to name a few. Many of the ingredients which are currently approved for use in the United States are already banned in the European Union. It is only with plain language reference materials such as provided by Ruth Winter in this book that the consumer, and the retailer, can be forewarned about the products they are buying.
BRAVO !!!!!"

"If you are a human, and use lots of cosmetics/cosmeseuticals/hair care products/face care products/body care products you should have a copy of this book, as if it were the dictionary.
This book is incredibly helpful and the writer is VERY knowledgeable. She explains literally everything you need to know to make healthy, and/or organic choices in your everday life.
It's a great gift for anyone who cares about what's going in or on their bodies."

"This book is great for understanding the products you are putting on your body. It is also a helpful guide to understandin products that are/are not earth friendly. It is very surprising to know some very harmful products are acutlly used in skin care products and they actually age your skin verses doing the intended opposite. It's important to know the truth rather than to accept the slogan stated on the packaging."
