Body products go right into your skin which goes right into your blood stream, organs and brain. Only use organic products. Never use any body products or dish soaps with SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) or (Sodium Laureth Sulfate), even if it says it is made from coconut, as it is the process in which it is made that is toxic, not the materials (coconuts.) For more info on SLS read this by Dr Mercola. Do not use lotions. I have never found a healthy one; not even by ACURE.
Vitamins:
(Most vitamins are GMO in their vitamin E)
I recommend: Whole Earth & Sea, Non-GMO, www.WholeEarthSea.com
Face and Body Oil:
Acure, facial serum, organic.
Skin Dharma, Gentle Rose Sesame Oil, Organic, www.SkinDharma.com

Make your own. Simply put an organic almond oil (or other oil) in a recycled glass bottle and add organic essential oils of your choice. Viola, it is done!
Face Cream:
Rose Coconut Oil, by Kuumba, www.KuumbaMade.com, 800-588-6220, Tucson, AZ.

Toothpaste
Eco Dent, www.Eco-Dent.com
Organic Tooth Powder, with Pacific Northwest Peppermint Oil, by Uncle Harry's Natural Products, www.UncleHarrys.com, Redmond, WA, 866-781-0815. I love this toothpaste! It is strong so only sprinkle a little on your toothbrush. It is also great to travel with as it is small.
Shampoo
There are a couple on-line that are organic. The best one I have found in a health food store is:
Organic Excellence Shampoo and Conditioner, 800-611-8331. This shampoo is not all organic but it is mostly organic and has clean ingredients. It has one ingredient called Potassium Lactate which is a salt of Lactic Acid. I have found neither positive or negative claims for this so far.
Bright Earth, Soap Nut Shampoo and Conditioner, no chemicals, parabens, or sulphate, BrightEarthFoods.com, 541-201-0420.
Look on-line for more organic shampoos and let me know what you find!
Deodorant
Crystalux, Crystal Deodorant, DeodorantStones.com, 800-279-9318
Put essential oils under your armpit. Most deodorants are toxic, even the ones at health food stores. Many essential oils are anti-microbial and can even cure cancer. For example, Frankincense, tea tree oil and red thyme and many more. They must be organic!
I am making a line of deodorants with organic essential oils but they are very expensive. They last a long time though. So far I have: Sandalwood Space, Lavender and Tea Tree Oil Deodorants. They are made with a blend of medicinal and aromatic pure organic essential oils. They are about $35 which includes shipping in the USA. I am not an organized Company yet though, so allow time for me to make and ship it with all of my other endeavors going on... Thank you!

Dish Soap
There are no dish soaps without SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) that I have found in the health food stores. So either make your own or use a "clean" liquid hand-soap for my dishes. It does not leave a film on the dishes.
I recommend: Griffin Remedy hand soap with MSM. www.GriffinRemedy.com, San Fransisco, CA 415-695-0800.
Homemade Dish Soap: Wash then squeeze lots of organic lemons, grapefruit or oranges. Eat them or make lemonade, they are good for you! Then put the skins into a glass jar and squish in as many as you can. Fill the jar to the top with white apple cider vinegar. Wait 2 weeks, strain it and it is ready to use! (I find that this leaves a film on mt dishware.)
