Meet Our New Friends

We have a bunch of new friends who we want to introduce you to. And for the record, we don’t only make friends with people who say nice things about us. But for the ones that did, thanks, yo! Links and things below.

Meet Virginia S0le-Smith, the whipsmart writer who interviewed us for Discovery’s Planet Green. She asked fun questions.

Next up, meet Abigail Doan, who writes about sustainable fashion and art, and blogs at Ecco Eco. She reviewed the book and did a great roundup of all the exciting things happening in natural beauty—including the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics’ upcoming video!

Now meet Emma Grady, a Treehugger writer who covers eco fashion, beauty and other awesome stuff. She interviewed us the other night at our book release and wrote a nice piece about it here.

Finally, meet Jessa Blades. Jessa is all over the makeup chapter in our book, and we hang out with her a lot in real life, too. She’s a knowledgeable and talented organic-makeup artist and is actively involved in the natural beauty world.

We’ll make more friends soon, we hope, and keep you abreast of the other awesome people we get to know.

Ta ta.

And last but not least… Why would any company put harmful chemicals in a beauty product?

That last one’s the clincher. Keep reading…
