Palm Oil in Cosmetics

In August 2012, I took a class from Marla Bosworth of Backporch Soap Company on making your own shampoos at The Nova Studio. She had a brief discussion on why we should go palm free. In her series on her blog she has a couple of postings about the subject.  Here are two of the postings that I would like to share with you that gives you the low down on this important issue.  Palm Oil in Cosmetics Part 1 discusses the issues and Palm in Cosmetics Part 2 has some recipes for you to start using if you do not already have any.
