I like to paint my nails, but I hate the chemicals! I just tried Hopscotch Kids Water Colors. It is completely water based with no formaldehyde, phthalates, toluene or other petrochemical solvents (none of the toxic chemicals found in most nail polishes). The primary ingredients are water, water-miscible acrylic polymer emulsion, and non-toxic colorants (no fd&c).
I think I look good in green.Everyone does!

Recently, during a first world trash table discussion, we arrived on the topic of sex toys. Clearly this was not appropriate conversation for the workplace but it was nonetheless educational and informative. We all realized, without admitting it, that we use and play with sex toys made from materials that are not very environmentally friendly. Thus, a google search and analysis began and came upon Earth Erotics. They’ve got all the natural sex toys you need for your most natural places.

Everything they carry is 100% cruelty free, which means nothing they sell contains any animal products. They have a store in NYC’s lower east side where I got some cool kicks, and you can shop online.
I wear these and love em.
I’m a model and a pretty good chef as well. I loved the veggies Jenelle grilled at the last FWT BBQ. They were so delish and a huge hit with non vegetarians. She grilled Portabello mushrooms, a variety of beautifully colored peppers, onion, red onion, zucchini, and pineapples. They were a huge hit.
I was able to get the marinade mixture from her, you can play with amounts. Marinate for an hour at least:
Pineapple juice
Soy Sauce
Agave Nectar
Rice Wine Vinegar
Minced Garlic
Yes! NVEY Eco of Australia makes organic cosmetics and compostable brushes!
To dispose of the brushes in your own compost in your back yard, but cut off the hairs first. The handle is made of a special corn resin material that breaks down – going back to the earth – being decomposed largely through aerobic decomposition!
You can also compost NVEY ECO Brushes by mailing them back to the NVEY ECO headquarters to receive a 20% discount on future orders, going to the website to look up the nearest composting center throughout the U.S.
Thanks to Glamourous and Green for the tip!
At the International Gift Fair, Jenelle shows us a new product made from materials found at Bonnaroo 2010.
