Hi! We are happy you are here and making informed decisions about the products you buy! The I Read Labels For You associate, Maria and Irina Webb, the founder and CEO, do our best to answer all emails.

However, we are a very small company, and even much bigger companies can’t afford to hire dedicated customer service employees.
To help us with the cost of running the business, we ask you to do two things before emailing us.
- Please check whether we posted an answer to your question on our free website. You can navigate our website by using menus and/or typing your search words into the website search engine.
- Consider taking advantage of our product review by email service and/or phone or video consultations.
After you have done that, please contact me here:
Hello Irina. We have been using a Lisa Jenks designed flatware that has a decorative oxidized design. Would you be able to determine if there is some toxicity in this area?
thank you.

Hello Irina,
I read your blog and I am very interested to purchase your permanent colour book. Is it still available at the moment?
Kind regards,

Oh, thanks for your input on the cast iron skillets, years ago b4 I knew how to use them, I was wondering why they always rusted on me, well, that’s because I always “washed” them with soap and hot water, lol, well, now I know better, but I didn’t know about the smelly foods, actually I’ve never had an issue, I use lots of onions and garlic in my food as well as frying catfish, salmon and tilapia; my mom only used cast iron and everything was cooked in them, we never tasted the previous foods when a new food was cook. I thinking about going back to using cast iron, now that I know how to clean them, lol. My mom never told me not to wash them, lol.thanks
Hi, Kim! Thank you for your comment! We are glad our input helped!
Hello Irina! I would just like to say that I am so overjoyed that I found your blog. After reading your research on cookware, I am amazed on how well you know the topic and done your research! This is truly a very well and in depth research on the topic. Not many bloggers or customer service reps know about stainless steel and the fact that it does leach metal. Thank you so much for doing what you do. It is serving the public so much ❤️👏🏼!
Thank you, Linda. ~Irina
Hi Irina!
I would like to see if you know anything about Seint
Skincare line? It does say in the list of ingredients it contains fragrance but I am not sure where it is derived from.
Hi, Tammy! We appreciate your interest! Irina will be happy to help you with your question in a private consultation: https://ireadlabelsforyou.com/services/
Hi! I’m new to your site. What are your thoughts on electric kettles / water boilers? These have the nice safety feature that they automatically turn off once the water is boiling hot. Based on my online searches and product reviews, I cannot find a single one without some amount of plastic (despite what manufacturers advertise). Have you been down this rabbit hole? What are your thoughts.
Thanks! T

Irina,
You are providing a great service to those of us who are too busy with living life to ensure that we are living it in the most healthy way. Thank you for your tons of research, compilation and time in order to provide us with concise in-depth reviews of products that we use daily. You are at the top of my list when I look for small changes in everyday products that can make a positive healthy impact.
Keep it coming!
PS If you can update the Hair Color Rating to include Redkin, Joico or Keune brands I will repurchase the list!
Hello, Wanda! We appreciate your kind comment and are glad our research helps you make informed decisions! Thank you for the hair dye ideas – we will look into those!
Irina,
I just wanted to thank you and let you know how much your work truly matters in a world where safe, healthy and clean usually do not fit into a company’s mission statement.
You are such a Beacon of Light in that darkness. Thank you for all that you do and may you be richly blessed for all of your contribution. God Bless
Hi, Cindy: your kind words mean so much to me! God Bless you, too! ~Irina
