Quantcast Vegetarian Starbeauty products and health risks

82nd Annual Academy Awards - Arrivals

Woody Harrelson taught fellow vegan screen star Alicia Silverstone what products she should be using in her bathtub.

According to Metro, Harrelson was entertaining Silverstone with his family and the actress was going to take a bath outside.

“Woody said, “I don’t want my kids getting in your bath. Look at all the products you’re using.”

“You can’t even read the ingredients and they’re going into your skin.”

“That was a big awakening for me. That was the day I learned the importance of natural products.”

If you don’t have a famous actor teaching you the propers of cleanliness, there’s always the Cosmetics Database at cosmeticsdatabase.org.

Going to the home page and typing in the name of a brand or product will give you a score of how safe the product is for your skin based on ingredients shown to cause health problems.

The greater the score, the greater the hazard and you probably should try another product.

Ingredients like Butylene Glycol, may score lower with reactions listed such as skin irritation, while DMDM Hydantoin or Sodium Laureth Sulfate (both found in shampoos and soaps) indicate higher risks.
