London-based pharmacist Margo Marrone believes people should be as concerned with what they put on their skin as with what they put in their mouth. Although she has been a longtime consumer of organic food and homeopathic remedies, Marrone, 41, admits that until several years ago she hadn't given much thought to the shampoo and skin-care products she used daily.
