Qualities

Alcohol Free ▸ x No natural or added alcohol means the product won’t dry out hands, hair, or anything in between. Did you know? Alcohol in consumer products like shampoo and face wash can dry out and otherwise irritate skin. Alcohol can be found in mouthwashes and hand sanitizers where it is meant to kill germs, including the ones that cause bad breath. The alcohol content in certain products is so high it can cause someone to fail a breathalyzer test if ingested. · · ·	Made with Essential Oils ▸ x Natural aromatic oils obtained by steaming, distilling, or pressing botanical materials for either scenting or medicinal purposes. Did you know? Ever wonder why some essential oils can be costly? Consider that it takes half a ton of orange blossoms to extract just a pound of their oil! Essential oils are like relationships. Some, like citrus oils, fade after 6 months. Others, like sandalwood, actually improve with age. Think of essential oils as fine wines. Store yours in a cool dark place—a cabinet away from heat sources will suffice. Fun tip: For a natural air freshener, place a drop or two of your favorite oil on a cold light bulb. When you switch it on, the heat diffuses the scent. · · · ·
BPA Free ▸ x The product and/or its packaging is said not to contain the chemical bisphenol-A, which has been linked in various studies to endocrine system disruption, cancer, diabetes, and other conditions. Did you know? Some joke that BPA should stand for Big Profit Accumulation—eight billion pounds are manufactured annually and $700,000 worth is sold every hour! Thanks to all the BPA in consumer products and the environment, 93% of Americans have this chemical floating around in their bodies. People aren’t the only thing BPA is polluting. Because it’s used in thermal sales receipt paper (you know, the shiny stuff), most recycled paper is also contaminated. · · ·	Non-Toxic ▸ x Upholds stringent Abe’s Market standards for natural products. Must cause no adverse impacts on human or environmental health. Did you know? Non-toxic would be a non-issue in a cleaner world, but the dirty truth is that over 80,000 different chemicals are in use today, with another 2,000 or so materials introduced yearly. Many of these synthetic substances don’t pass the safety test. Research by the National Toxicology Program suggests that up 10% are carcinogens. Out of 2,800 substances used in amounts over a million tons in the U.S., only 7% or so have been fully studied for toxicity. Between 15% and 30% of us report reactions to the unhealthy ingredients found in common consumer products. · · · ·
Casein Free ▸ x Contains no casein, potentially allergenic proteins found in milk and dairy foods as well as products containing casein-based binders, emulsifiers, or stabilizers. Did you know? Casein is a protein found in milk. It shows up in various products from cheese to plastic to paint. Casein is one of two proteins found in cow’s milk that can trigger an allergy. Some people are allergic to it, others are allergic to whey. Still others are allergic to both. Vegans looking for cosmetics read labels to avoid casein, which is decidedly not vegan. · · ·	Paraben Free ▸ x No parabens, antibacterial chemical preservatives linked to cancer, endocrine disruption, neurological and immune effects, and other disorders. Did you know? Parabens are synthetic preservatives. There are many natural ways to preserve products without them. The FDA says parabens are the most widely used cosmetic and personal care preservatives. You may see them listed on labels as methylparaben, propylparaben and butylparaben. Parabens have been found in breast tumors but the FDA says they don’t cause cancer. Some of the preservatives used to replace parabens—including formaldehyde—are no safer for human health. Reading labels is always wise. · · · ·
CFC Free ▸ x Did you know? Chlorofluorocarbons aka CFCs were first introduced in consumer products as refrigerants, propellants (think aerosol sprays), and certain solvents in the late 1800s. CFCs were commonly used because they are unreactive in the lower atmosphere. Unfortunately they’re extremely reactive in the upper atmosphere and breakdown the ozone layer. According to the EPA, concern about the ozone layer in the 1970s led several countries to ban the use of CFCs as aerosol propellants, including the U.S. But they were—and are—still used elsewhere and in other applications. · · ·	Pesticide Free ▸ x No synthetic insecticides, herbicides, fungicides or rodenticides. Did you know? Unlike USDA organic, which has set rules about synthetic pesticide use, pesticide-free isn’t a third party certifiable claim. Not every producer can afford to get certified by the USDA so pesticide-free is an unregulated claim you sometimes see on small batch products. Pesticides can harm both humans and the environment—as well as the pests they’re meant to poison. There are health effects associated with specific pesticides and they contribute to water and soil pollution. Pests can develop resistance to pesticides. When this happens, more and more are employed. This is referred to as the “pesticide treadmill.” · · · ·
Chlorine Free ▸ x No chlorine or chlorine-based chemicals like sodium hypochlorite are in the product.	Petroleum Free ▸ x No ingredients derived from petroleum or petrochemicals. Did you know? Petroleum is used to make lipsticks shine, cream smooth, and to create a barrier on skin, among other things. When reading labels in an effort to avoid petroleum in your personal care products, don’t look for the word petroleum. It’s rarely listed this way. Keep an eye out for paraffin wax, mineral oil, petrolatum, and propylene glycol. Many scents and fragrances are also petroleum-derived. Proponents of avoiding petroleum in personal care products say it disrupts the way the body naturally detoxifies by not letting the skin breathe. Some say it also slows cell renewal rate and ages skin. · · ·
Dye and Color-Additive Free ▸ x No synthetic dyes, chemical food coloring, or other artificial colorants. Any color apparent in the product is naturally derived. Did you know? There are currently 7 petrochemical-derived artificial colors allowed in food today in the United States. Some of these are banned in other countries. Artificial coloring has been linked to adverse health effects. Certain food dyes have been known to trigger allergies and they have also been said to aggravate ADD and ADHD symptoms. Some companies make two kinds of the same food—one dyed for the U.S. market and one without banned dyes for the E.U. A widely noted example of this is Kraft’s macaroni and cheese. Natural foods tend to contain dyes derived from edible substances and plants including blueberries, carrots, and annatto. · · · ·	Phthalate Free ▸ x No phthalates, chemicals used as solvents, scent carriers, and plasticizers, linked to endocrine disruption, cancer, reproductive and other disorders. Did you know? Phthalates are actually easy to pronounce (THAL-ates) but can be hard to avoid. They’re common in soft plastics, synthetic fragrances, and conventional personal care items like nail polish. Vinyl items like toys and shower curtains like can contain up to 40% phthalates by weight! They’re worth trying to avoid as they’ve been linked to cancer, reproductive and developmental disorders, and organ and nervous system damage. Like many chemicals, phthalates can easily escape from whatever they’re in. When they do, they wind up in our bodies, where they resist decay and accumulate over time. The more we encounter, the more we get stuck with. Studies show that virtually every single man, woman, and child in America has phthalates in their body today. · · · ·
GMO Free ▸ x No genetically modified or engineered organisms or ingredients derived from them. Claim can be verified by the Non-GMO Project. Did you know? Surveys show that over 90% of Americans think GM foods should be labeled. 53% say they wouldn’t buy food that’s been genetically modified. The thing is, most of us are already buying GM foods. 80% of processed foods contain GMOs and 88% of all U.S. corn, 95% of sugar beets, and 94% of our soy is genetically modified. Unlike the U.S., Most countries have just said no to GMOs. Nearly 50 have banned or significantly restricted GM crops. Just five nations grow 90% of the world’s GM crops: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, India, and the U.S. Most GMOs are altered to resist herbicides or bugs. One type of corn makes its own pesticides. Those pesticides are now showing up inside people. · · · · ·	SLS Free ▸ x No sodium lauryl sulfate, a synthetic foaming and cleansing agent Did you know? Sodium lauryl sulfate (or SLS) is a detergent agent used in cleaners and personal care products that happens to make them satisfyingly foamy. Though it’s made by combining two common natural compounds, sulfate and lauric acid, SLS doesn’t play well with aquatic life. It can irritate fish and other creatures. SLS can also irritate skin in high concentrations or with prolonged contact. SLS is often confused with sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), which can be contaminated by 1,4 dioxane, a carcinogen. This may be why many believe SLS causes cancer. It doesn’t. But that hasn’t stopped the rumor mill from foaming about it. · · · ·
Made by Hand ▸ x The item has been entirely fashioned or assembled from component parts by a person using their hands or hand tools.	Woman-Owned Business ▸ x The company producing the product is owned either wholly or in significant majority part by a woman or women. Did you know? Between 1997 and 2007, the number of women-owned businesses grew twice as fast as those started by men. A victory in the battle of the sexes? Still a ways to go... While women own 30% of privately held businesses, they’re only responsible for 13% of the sector’s employment. Women business owners do far more with much less. Studies show that they typically start with less capital than their male counterparts. They still manage to supply paychecks to 7.6 million employees. 7.2 million businesses in the U.S. are majority-owned by women. · · · ·
Made in the USA ▸ x The item has been produced or manufactured in the United States. Did you know? U.S. labor tends to be more expensive than labor elsewhere, so companies have outsourced their work in droves. The outsourcing of work means there are less manufacturing facilities stateside than there once were. Made in the USA has therefore become a point of pride, and not only in the auto industry. Labor conditions overseas—depending on the country—are often less safe than they are here in the USA, putting workers at risk. Many workers outside the U.S. aren’t paid living wages. Some countries present both slave and child labor concerns. · · · ·
