In March if this year the results of a study commissioned by the Organic
Consumers Association (OCA), a watchdog group, was released. This
study assessed levels of a carcinogen in leading “natural”, “organic”
and conventional brands of personal care and household cleaning
products. The full press release and a copy of the follow-up testing
results can be found and downloaded at:

sheet on petrochemical carcinogen 1,4-dioxane.

Did you know most of the commercial soap bars that line most grocery
stores� shelves are actually synthetic detergents?
I’ve spent this afternoon trying to get better educated on the features
of worldpress.com, Facebook, and Twitter and how to get them all to work
together. I officially have a headache now. So, that means it’s time
to unwind in the kitchen with some oils, butter, herbs, a little music
and a lot of soap making. Have a beautiful weekend.
Well world, I’ve finally given in to positive peer pressure and started a
blog. I intend to use this blog as a forum for sharing information
about the soap and body care industry from the perspective of a small
business owner and consumer of handmade, skin healthy and natural
products. I hope you find the information I post here to be both
informative and entertaining. And I encourage you join me in the
discussion.
