Help Save Planet Earth Starting with Uranus
Uranus, founde
d by two college students, is a new eco-friendly company that has just launched its line of soy underwear for women.
Soy fabric is eco-friendly and sustainable because of the way it is made. Soy fabric is manufactured from the by-products of soy food products, like tofu and soybean oil. Since the process uses materials that would otherwise be waste, it is considered to "close the loop" on soy. Not to mention the fact that its luxuriously soft and comfortable, often compared to silk or cashmere and more durable and longer lasting than cotton.

The Best All-Natural Sunscreens
Did you know that most of the sunscreen you buy at the store are filled with potentially harmful chemicals that can leach into your skin and cause long last effects when used over time? This is a bad thing for any person but when you think about putting this sunscreen on babies and toddlers who tend to put their hands and feet in their mouth, we are essentially letting them lick the sunscreen. So not only is it leaching through their skin, they are ingesting it too.

Eco-Me 100% Natural Kits for Home, Body, Baby & Pets
Eco-Me specializes in 100% natural do-it-yourself kits that are good for you and the environment, too.
We created a line of cleaning kits to help people make their own natural, non-toxic, chemical-free products. In March of 2005 my 36-year-old sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. How does a healthy, athletic, spiritual and nutritionally organic young woman face the challenges of breast cancer? With no family history of this disease nor a lifestyle to promote it, could my sister’s breast cancer be linked to the pollutants in our environment or toxic chemicals in our homes? Is it possible that by simply cleaning your home you are creating a toxic environment? Could the chemicals in products that line our shelves lead to life threatening health risks? The need to remove unnecessary chemicals from our homes led our search for completely natural and chemical-free products. The only problem was finding the products. Most natural cleaners still use synthetic chemicals for colorants and add trace amounts of ammonia and harsh additives to their products. So we decided that if we wanted a truly natural product we would have to make it ourselves and a few months later Eco-Me was born.
How this works: Eco-Me's kits include easy to follow instructions and a 100% natural essential oil, different ones for each kit. You combine the oil with items you already have in your kitchen, such as, Vinegar, Water, Olive Oil & aluminum-free Baking Soda. Depending on if you are mixing it for body, home or pet, the ingredients you use will be different.

Dr. Bronner's Magic Pure Castile Classic Soap
I was at Target picking up some much needed beauty supplies when I came across Dr. Bronner's 18-in-1 Hemp Peppermint Pure-Castile Soap for the first time. I saw that it was organic and I was checking the label and it read; Enjoy only 2 cosmetics, enough sleep & Dr. Bronner's 'Magic Soap' to clean body-mind-soul-spirit instantly uniting one! I found this intriguing, that one soap could be used for your whole body and decided I would give it a try. It was just a small sample size so what did I have to loose?
