 Really practical September 7, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I found this book to have everything I needed as I embarked on a chemical free lifestyle. Before I read this book I had no real source of healthy product offerings (other than the kind people at Whole Foods). I skipped the yoga part and focused on the beauty products.
 Inspiration....... September 6, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Inspiration on "going green", and I am not referring to Kermit the Frog. I just purchased this book and I can't put it down. I am jumping from one chapter to another learning all good ideas on becoming more aware of my own impact on the earth. I can't wait to sit down and consume this book chapter by chapter.
It has inspired me to plan my next Bunco game that I am scheduled to host on becoming "Gorgeously Green". All kinds of ideas to share with my group are floating through my head.
 A bit redundant August 4, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Though this book has some great tips and is fairly easy to read, it could have been summed up in maybe half the pages the author actually used (saving many trees, of course). I found many of her tips to be a bit silly, and her lack of descriptive vocabulary (must everything be "simply to die for" and/or "gorgeous"?) boring. The list of fashion vendors provided in Chapter 4 seems more like shameless free advertising. Some of the vendors no longer exist, and many are quite expensive. Save your money and check out websites or the local library for more up-to-date advice, or start a green group to discuss alternatives to eco-friendly living instead.
Great Gift! August 1, 2008

 Better books out there August 1, 2008
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Seems like she's jumping onto the green bandwagon because it's the cool thing to do these days. None of her info has citations and some of it is conflicting (re: microwave usage). And I really don't care for the yoga poses in the book...seems like she's advertising for her yoga studio. There are better books out there, like Renee Loux's.
