It really makes it so much easier to decide what to product to buy. If you use their consumer guides as much as I do you’re going to want this app on your phone. It also has a regular search feature where you can look up products by type or brand.īelow you can find a copy of the email I received letting me know about this awesome app with the links for download on your iPhone or Android. This means next time I’m at a store I can easily find out which products to buy. They’ve created an app where you can scan the bar code and get the product information instantly. I’m really excited that now I won’t have to look up the site and type in in the product name when I’m out shopping. Ever since finding this site I use it a lot and never buy a product without looking it up here first. They are a great and fast way to check if the products you use or are looking to buy have any toxic ingredients. If you’ve been following my blog you know I love the consumer guides at The Environmental Working Group.

I am so excited to share this with everyone! No health studies or pre-market testing are required. And would be extra helpful if also included information on where can purchase from and also how the product smells!!! I’d like a nice clean natural product that is good for my hair but at the same time I’d like to be able to weigh the pros and cons and may rather buy a product that is rated a 2 or 3 if it makes my hair softer and has a really nice smell.Most people use cosmetics and other personal care items without a second thought, believing the government makes sure they’re safe. Would also be nice if included helpful reviews and had options to sort by ewg rating, price, top reviews…). I can’t go in and filter my search with options such as price, hair type (thin, oily, wavy…), hair goal (volume, shine, frizz control, etc.), or even by the ewg rating. It simply gives me a giant list of shampoos which seems to start for best (being EWG rated).

For example under “browse” I can go to “hair” and then pick from “baby shampoo”, “shampoo”, or “conditioner”. You can search for a particular brand but if unsure what you want and want to browse it’s hard to narrow down options.

Needs better browsing filters and sorting options
