Pass on the Parabens:

Used in many deodorants, moisturizers, makeup and shampoos, these preservatives have been linked to breast cancer. Read labels and choose products that don't contain parabens (methyl-, butyl- or propyl-).

Why It's Good:

Doormats in the past were strictly for the function of cleaning feet. Today, they not only keep out dirt, but are a quirky way to express your design sensibility and set the tone for the rest of your house. This hand-woven coir doormat from Pottery Barn is perfect for enticing guests indoors with owl's round welcoming eyes.

Why It's Green:

Coir is a natural fiber derived from coconut shells. It is not only great for scraping shoes clean, but you can feel good about your purchase because the coir industry helped give jobs to men and women affected by the Tsunami in 2004 and continues to do so today.
