EWG's Sunscreen Guide 2015
EWG's Sunscreen Guide 2015
& what I consider when purchasing sunscreen
As many of you know, I feel very strong about using non-toxic, and less chemicals in my everyday routine and in life in general! Therefore, it's very important to me to find products that are less toxic! One way that helps me find safe products for my family is by using a Free online database EWG! They offer a wide range of consumer guides that help you find the safest products possible for you and your family. You can look up cosmetics, cleaning supplies, food, ingredients and more! I'm very grateful I have this tool in helping me make important and healthier decisions for my family!
Summer is just around the corner, so it's time for me to do my research and find the safest sunscreen for my family! Read EWG's 2015 Guide to Sunscreens and discover which product best fits your needs and addresses your concerns!
5 things I factor in when deciding on which sunscreen to purchase:
EWG's Toxic Grade
First and foremost, I want a sunscreen that has at least an 1-2 grade! This way I know the ingredients are the safest for my family!
Price
Second, I want a sunscreen that is affordable! Yes I may pay more for less product, but when it comes to my family's health and safety, there is no price too big! So a reasonable price is a must for me!
Availability
Third, I want to make sure that the sunscreen is available online or even better, at the store in my area.
Level of Protection
Fourth, I want to make sure the level of protection is enough. If one sunscreen is only 15 proof and cost more than one that is 50 proof, then I'd get 50 proof even if that means less of a product!
Waterproof/ Sweat Proof
Lastly, is the sunscreen waterproof or sweat proof. I don't want it to rub off just because I sweat or got into the pool!
Unfortunately, many of the safest sunscreens are not easily accessible in my area, meaning I have to order them offline. That's okay, but it's kind of a downer when you are in an emergency situation and you cannot just go to the store and pick some up.
Most importantly, do your research and don't be afraid to spend more money on a safe, toxic-free product! Once the market place understands we all want safe, toxic-free products, prices will eventually lower and the safe products will become more easily accessible! Don't just settle for the cheapest! The cheapest isn't always the best or safest.

Review: Nature Valley Protein bar VS Aldi Millville Protein Bar
Protein Bar Review
Nature Valley VS Millville
by Miss Momma G
As you all may know, I am on a low-carb / low sugar diet. So it has been imperative for me to find a protein bar that would (1) taste good (2) be decent in carb count and (3) be reasonably priced. I tried brand after brand and they just didn't fit the bill. They were either way too expensive or the texture was wrong or just had a bad taste. So I was excited when I found Nature Valley's Chewy Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate protein bar. For a 10 pack of Nature Valley Protein bars, it ran $5.68 (Walmart Price). Then one day I went to Aldi and found Millville's Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter chewy protein bar for about $1.79 for 5 bars.
So then I compared the two based on: Taste and Texture, Carb Count, and Price!
Taste & Texture
Pictured below you can see that both bars are very similar in appearance. And overall they taste very similar to one another and have a good chewy texture. However, the Millville bar seems a little harder to chew than the Nature Valley Protein Bar.

Millville Protein Bar (bottom)
Carbohydrates
Next, most importantly, was the carbohydrate count. I was very impressed to see that the name brand Nature Valley was actually lower in carbs than Millville in addition to a 1 gram lower in sugar!

Price
When it comes to price, there is a $0.21 difference. Nature Valley comes in at about $0.57 per bar compared to Millville at $0.36 per bar.

Final Conclusion
In conclusion I can say both these bars are two decent options when you have a sweet craving but don't want to go overboard on your carbs! However, I prefer the Nature Valley Protein Bar because of it's taste and texture and the comfort of being able to chew it comfortably. Also it is lower in carbs, and every carb counts. But Millville would be my second option, especially when my budget is tight and when I need to satisfy my sweet tooth.
