Consumer Beware
GREEN LIVING EXPO
    A free event open to the public dedicated to helping green businesses spread their message of environmental awareness. Every Expo offers a significant opportunity to educate thousands of environmentally conscious consumers regarding the benefits of particular green products!  (Ad for exhibitors off Green living expo web site)

 A great idea and much needed but BEWARE. After several attempts to contact the organizers of the Green Living Expo to determine the criteria for exhibitors I was left with no response.  I purchased a product at the expo that is neither environmental nor healthy.  The product is by a cosmetic company called SENE GENCE.  I was very disappointed to have spent $18 for lipstick that I cannot even wear-the taste on my lips is unbearable.  I believe it was included because they make long wear cosmetics-meaning one time application last at least 12 hours-and it does but at a cost to the environment and your health.  There appears to be lead derivatives and toxic coloring at minimum in the lipstick.
