Laura Mueller, R.N. of Acacia Organics in Barrington, IllinoisNext time you stop by Acacia Organics, be sure to ask the owners any questions you have about the safety of the products you use.   Laura Mueller has worked as a registered nurse for the past 20 years and her partner, July Zabielski, is a nutritional consultant.  They gave me a whole list of reasons why it’s a smart idea to consider buying organic.

Over a lifetime we eat 4-6 pounds of lipstick!  The FDA recently tested 22 lipsticks and found lead in EVERY SAMPLE.  Are you putting harmful chemicals on your lips when you apply your favorite color?  Laura says the chemicals found in some of these lipsticks have been linked to cancer, infertility, birth defects and allergies.  Visit CosmeticsDatabase.org to see how the lipstick in your purse rates on the safety scale.  Or you can pick up a new tube of  lipstick at Acacia.  They have a great selection of lip colors, foundations, eye shadows and other mineral makeup by Jane Iredale.

Sunscreen

Do you have questions about which sunscreens are safe?  Did you know that many of the most popular sunscreens have toxins that penetrate the skin, trigger allergic reactions and mess with our hormones?  Laura says some of them contain ingredients which may actually speed up the development of skin tumors and lesions.  Acacia’s owners say they are constantly replenishing their sunscreen supply because it’s safe and it’s super popular.

They also sell a lot of insect repellants, skin and bath products, deodorants, teas, candles and household cleaners at Acacia Organics.  If you want to learn more about the shop, visit their website at AcaciaOrganics.com.
