Maybe it's time to rethink using that shampoo.

I went to http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com and found out that my shampoo was an 8 out of 10 (10 being the worst). I now only use Burt's Bees shampoo and their conditioner which is about 98.7% natural... I also switched to an all-natural soap as well from Tom's of Maine. I like the smell better for all of them anyway 
I've used the site but often on certain things it seems inhibitive, sadly pretty much every moisturizers i've seen on their for major brands has those really high 7-10 scores.
Lately I've started using various foods like honey and sourcream to clean my face and a mix of oil(canola, olive or whatever) and baking powder and it exfoliates incredibly well and gently.
Sunscreen especially is dangerous as oxybenzone is believed to be unsafe and it's the most common frickin ingredient! They even say it may be worse for sun exposure when it degrades. Zinc Oxide is the safest but it is very heavy duty and is completely, visibly, white.:headshake2: They say 20 percent will protect fully from UVA/UVB but it's only practical when hicking in lonely places were no one will see a white vampire mask.
