I have been on a mission over the past two years to move to cleaner products personally and for our household. I feel like it’s the least we can do when spending our money. It’s better for our bodies and it’s better for the planet, so when you are getting these types of products anyway, you might as well opt for the cleaner ones. And yes, you can do this without breaking the bank, I promise!
I just want to be VERY honest with you though. I don’t consider myself “highly educated” in this space whatsoever. I’ve done a good amount of research and I certainly know the basics. When I’m unsure about a product though, I have found the EWG site to be the most informative in guiding me to make the right choice.
Places like Target have also just started to incorporate a clean label on products that don’t contain ingredients like propyl-parabens, butyl-parabens, phthalates, retinyl palmitateformaldehyde, formaldehyde-donors, nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs), aluminum, artificial sweeteners, SLES, hydroquinone, triclosan, triclocarban, BHA or BHT.
