Did you know there is lead in most lipsticks and mercury in most
mascaras!? Did you know that cancer-causing phthalates, banned from use
in children’s toys, are one of the most common ingredients in many skin
products? Did you know the FDA has no regulatory control over cosmetics
companies, and allows them to decide their own safety standards? They
don’t even have to fully label ingredients!
It is hard to
believe, but it is a fact that experts say is becoming increasingly
clear: most mainstream cosmetic and personal care products contain at
least one hazardous chemical compound, and many contain far more than
that. There are between 5,000 and 10,000 ingredients currently being
used in everything from eyeliner and lipstick to shampoos and deodorants
that are synthetic, unnatural, man-made chemical compounds. Many of
these are assumed to be safe, but many more have been tested and proven
to be dangerous and toxic. The National Institute of Occupational
Safety, for example, has identified almost 900 personal care chemicals
that are toxic in one way or another. Some cause cancer. Others cause
hormone disruption. Some are neurotoxins. Others cause organ damage. In
Europe, 1100 of these dangerous materials have been banned from consumer
products. In America only 10 have been banned. Check out this
excellent, comprehensive website CosmeticsDatabase.com to find exactly what chemicals are in your personal care products and exactly what health risks have been linked to each.
