Question from Jennifer
How many of you have signed the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics?
Just because something says “ORGANIC” does not mean it is safe. The Bush admistration watered down how much has to be Organic to be called Organic. Only less than half the product has to be organic in my state of California. SO what is the other half then?
Also when you are entering into the Skindeep.com data base look to see which companies have signed the “Campaign forsafecosmetics”.I will tell you that I am very proud of myself for recently calling Neutragena and asking why they pay the AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY to have their logo on their product when their product has over twelve different kinds of cancer causing toxins.The ACS does not endorse any specific product. Neutragena could not give me answer. I will not buy there products at all or Trader Joe’s.
I try to buy from local family owned businesses. NOT CORPORATE POISONS. I don’t want lead in make-up or my childs toys anymore China. Thanks girls and Have beautiful day cause we are all beautiful without make-up too! Peace and Awareness Jennifer
Debra’s Answer
Here’s the link: Campaign for Safe Cosmetics.
There is TONS of information on this website about the dangerous chemicals in cosmetic products, but no listings of safe products. For the safe products, see Debra’s List: Body Care.
