How to Avoid Phthalates:

Beauty companies are not required to list ingredients, so you are not likely to see phthalates, a plastic softener linked to cancer, on labels. Avoid products that list "fragrance," which often contains phthalates; look for essential oils instead.

Magic Liquid Soaps

Why It's Good:

It comes five different good-for-your-skin varieties—almond, lavender, peppermint, eucalyptus, baby, and tea tree—all of which are scented with essential oils except for the baby formulas. The writing on the label will keep you endlessly entertained.

Why It's Green:

The ingredients are organic and the soaps contain no synthetic surfactants (suds-makers) and no petrochemicals (non-renewable resources). The bottles are made from 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. Dr. Bronner supports sustainable agriculture, farm worker health, and ecological processing methods.
