Just stumbled across So Organic's website. First off, the thing that caught my eye was the chance to win a £100 voucher to spend on organic cosmetics, skincare and baby products by subscribing to their newsletter. You've got to be in it to win it, as they say...
They stock a good range of reliable green brands - Weleda, Lavera, Green People - and they go to great lengths to provide information about each product, including ingredients, how to use, reviews etc.
They also have loads of free samples (organic make up, skincare, baby stuff, etc) so you can try out new products (see terms - you need to order paid goods to get the free stuff). Plus a tempting refer a friend deal where you get £5 for every mate you tell about the site.
Definitely worth taking a look.....

Cruelty free cosmetics
Like many mums, I have 1 or 2 make up essentials to hide the wear and tear, the bags under the eyes, etc.
If you're anything like me, you slap your make-up on in the small windows of opportunity in the morning. Maybe you whip the mascara out on a crowded train carriage to work - or you tempt fate with an attempt to put lippy on while a distressed toddler with yoghurt hands pulls on your best dark trousers.
Anyway, as I have less and less time to add sparkle in the mornings, I'm trying to buy better quality cosmetics. Ideally organic and cruelty-free (lots of companies meet both criteria). So I was chuffed to find someone else has done the research - BUAV's free download contains a list of ethical cosmetic companies - see 'Little Book of Cruelty Free'. Time for a new mascara methinks.
