Do you ever think about the shelf life of your personal care products? The #FDA says it varies a lot depending on how you use and store them. In Europe #cosmetics show a period after opening time. How do you keep your #makeup clean and safe? #safecosmetics #GreenBeauty

@TheAtlantic @TaylorLorenz @TheAtlantic @TaylorLorenz @StinkMovie @NetReturn Many consumers think nothing of seeing a dangling scented car air freshener in a taxi, Uber or Lyft drivers car. But once you know about #fragrance and the hundreds of #toxic chemicals that one word can represent, you can't unknow

Forget about your #beach body -- you're beautiful just the way you are! Instead, use safe #sunscreen because being healthy IS #beautiful!

It's time for change. #safecosmetics #nontoxic #cosmetics #Health #wellness

[EWG @ewg]

Buyer beware: manufacturers can put almost any chemical into cosmetics products and there's no safety testing required before products are sold to consumers!

@NetReturn The launch is on May 22 and she said it’s “the best of the best,” touting them as “cruelty-free, vegan, gluten-free, paraben- and sulfate-free and suitable for all skin types.” Are they fragrance-free though? Let’s see some #transparency!

[Jon @NetReturn]

Do you have a link to the ingredients? They’ll be available before you sell the product, right? @KylieJenner #kylieskin

[Pretty Toxic @PrettyToxicDoc]

The time is now for #FragranceDisclosure #SB574 Give it up to @StinkMovie @NetReturn for doing the moral and right thing. This is a movement and we will all rise! Consumers have the right to #safecosmetics

[STINK! @StinkMovie]

Oops, we did it gain. We sent a top-selling fragrance to a laboratory to see if there’s a disconnect between what they say is in a fragrance and what a lab analysis reveals. Perception is reality but this @britneyspears scent is ‘not that innocent.’ #FragranceDisclosure #SB574

[Pretty Toxic @PrettyToxicDoc]

Should you say “Bye-Bye Body Wash?” Body wash, hand and bar soaps, even when labeled “natural,” can frequently contain toxic ingredients that can lead to hormone disruption, neurotoxicity, allergies and asthma. Know what’s in your personal care products! #safecosmetics #nontoxic

@Liv_and_Grace The body's six organs to detoxify the body are the liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph, colon, and skin. :)

[LIV + GRACE SKINCARE by Cindy O'Brien @Liv_and_Grace]

@PrettyToxicDoc What are all 6 detoxification organs of the body? We thought there were only 4, skin, liver, colon and kidneys. 😳Please educate us 🙌🏻💪🏻🔑

[Pretty Toxic @PrettyToxicDoc]

Skin is our largest organ. It’s also one of our 6 organs of detoxification, which helps to usher out some of the toxins that end up inside us. But can some ingredients in skincare products find their way into your bloodstream? #ThursdayThoughts More @PrettyToxicDoc on FB & IG
