The Benefits:
- Safe enough for an infant. The FDA has tested only 11% of the more than 10,000 ingredients used in beauty products for safety.
- Petroleum-free posteriors. Petrolatum's an oil-derived ingredient found in many moisturizers.
- It's eco-friendlier, baby. Duh: Opting for products made from organic materials in recycled packaging reduces pollution and saves resources.
Personally Speaking:
Toshio used to use petrochem-based Vaseline as face lotion. Seriously. We've since hooked him up with guy-friendly Max Green's Naked Rescue Cream. His pores would like to thank the Biter Team.
Wanna Try:
- Max Green Naked Rescue Cream - creamy, ultramoisturizing, fragrance-free lotion ($20/4 ounces).
- TerraNova Miracle Cream - rich jojoba and shea butter cream with 80% certified-organic ingredients ($23/5.25 ounces).
- Blooming Lotus Groundation Luminous Lotion - sandalwood-scented, with smoky quartz essences, said to have a grounding effect on the senses ($18/8 ounces).
- Beautiful Soap & Co. Grapefruit Lotion - enriched with vitamin E and aloe vera, and has an energizing citrus scent ($10).
- Skin Deep - find out what those long words in the ingredient lists of your fave products actually mean.
Cocktail Fact
Tyra Banks named Vaseline as her number one beauty product - she uses it head to toe.
Bang For The Bite
If 10,000 Biters opt for a 4-ounce bottle of eco-lotion instead of the usual synthetic variety, we'll avert the weight of 333 infants in iffy ingredients.
