Shop smart with GoodGuide
Before heading to the supermarket, check out GoodGuide to learn a thing or two about the products you’re about to buy. GoodGuide partners with non-profit organizations to find out exactly what your personal care and household products are made of, and whether the companies that make them are socially and environmentally responsible.
I looked up the sunscreen lotion that I used last summer and found out that it contains few chemicals and is overall very safe to use. However the company that manufactures it is poorly rated when it comes to ethics, compliance to environmental regulations and its energy policy, among other things.
GoodGuide suggested a bunch of other products that have better ratings and offered me the possibility to buy them through Amazon or add them to my shopping list.
You can also use the GoodGuide App for iPhone to get instant information while shopping.
