I love reading your blog. Your tone is entertaining and your advice is realistic. I hadn’t thought about going greener before I found your site (or wearing concealer), but I sure am glad I did! Keep up the good detective work and soon we will all be greener and at our prettiest. I appreciate your honest feedback too.

Aimee, I’m just in the beginning stages of going “green” and I was pleased to come across your website. It’s easy enough nowadays to find green makeup, but yours is the first blog dedicated to finding what truly works out there. As my skin goes through its chemical withdrawal, it’s really nice to have you as a natural makeup resource! Kudos!

Hello Aimee,
I found your blog at random and I have to pay you a big compliment for your honest and in-depth approach to find the most natural skin care and make-up products. Especially, I enjoyed your article about fashion magazines and what they claim “natural” and “organic” – as that’s something which is bugging me, too (first I wrote letters to the editors, then I simply stopped reading those magazines).
Keep up the good work!
Nadine
P.S.: You’re wrong concerning Dr. Hauschka’s concealer shades
. They are not embracing the German population. We have many pale girls over here and even the lightest shade is far too dark for them (I speak first-hand, although I love many other Hauschka products and live near the headquarters, the concealer is rather, well… mediocre).

Thanks for reading, Nadine! I’m such a Hauschka fan, I hope they get their concealer act together some day–they could easily corner the market if they did!
