Listener Questions
5:00 – Question 1: How can you tell a cosmetic is expired?
Cosmetics are typically designed to last for an entire year but if you've got some that are older, they may not be good to use. Some of the key things to look for to determine if a cosmetic has gone bad is color change, odor change, and product separation. Microbial growth is also a big problem.
12:40 – Question 2: What are organic products?
There is no agreed upon definition for organic, natural or green. There are a number of different groups who have come up with their own standard for natural but no body agrees which is most important.
