Hello, I'm new.
I've been a vegan for about a week and a half now [but I have been a vegetarian for 11 years] and I have a couple questions:

1) What are some good sources of calcium?
2)What is a nice girly soap I can buy at the grocery store that is cruelty free?

Sorry if either of these questions have been run into the ground.
Thanks.

Calcium - dark leafy greens, almonds, hemp seeds, blackstrap molasses, fortified soy/rice milk (though it's not natural, soo...)

Honestly, I'm a big fan of Dr. Bronner's soap. You can buy it either prepackaged or in bulk. I like the smell as it is (& the tea tree oil keeps my breakouts in check!) but you can add a bit of essential oil if you like a different scent. The Lavendar isn't bad either ( ... )

DR. BRONNER'S!!!!!!!!

I originally had it recommended to me to use on my dog who's got SUPER sensitive skin (the non-scented baby mild one works great for her). I started washing my hands, my face, everything with it and now I'm totally in love and I got my family to fall for it too! My favorite to use is the peppermint for my face. :)

here are some links to some cruelty-free brands of soap that i usually buy in the grocery stores around where i live...
if you have any kind of "whole foods" or health-food store near you those are good places to find cruelty-free personal care products.

clearly natural (i use this one the most)

kiss my face (this is a pretty common brand at alot of stores)

bee and flower soap (this stuff smells wonderful)

If there's an Old Navy nearby, they sometimes sell Kiss My Face soaps. The pear & white tea one smells wonderful!
