Is it safe?

How do you know if your beauty product is safe?  The FDA doesn't regulate them well if at all, and even the EU can't be expected to do immensely better.  The old adage "Buyer Beware" seems fitting.

The folks at Skin Deep have been researching and chemically testing products and ingredients for a while now.  They have whole products and individual ingredients listed, detailed, and rated for hazard level based on evidence of safety or toxicity (and what kind).
