➡️Read labels to avoid products that contain ‘fragrance’ or ‘parfum.’ ➡️Choose fragrance-free products or products from companies who have publicly committed to full fragrance ingredient disclosure. ➡️Visit https://t.co/zqXmFPbVGf to learn more.

While a single word like “fragrance” on the back of a bottle may seem harmless, it can actually hide the presence of hundreds of chemicals linked to cancer, hormone disruption, and other negative health effects.

As we enter the final weekend of holiday shopping, use these tips to shop safer. Lastly, you can also help advocate for safer beauty. Write a letter to Congress telling them that we deserve beauty products free from harmful chemicals! #SaferBeauty4All

The eyeshadows also contain #TitaniumDioxide (Ci 77891). Titanium dioxide is used in a variety of personal care products, including sunscreens and powders, as a UV filter or whitening agent. When titanium dioxide is inhalable it is considered a possible #carcinogen.

#Talc can get contaminated with asbestos when mined. Asbestos is a known carcinogen linked to various cancers. Unlike in the U.S., talc is restricted in cosmetic products in Canada and the European Union. Talc should be avoided, unless it is known to be asbestos-free.

Today, many beauty and personal care products still contain harmful chemicals linked to increased breast cancer risk and other diseases. For example, the Mac eyeshadows contain Talc and Titanium Dioxide.

Black women spend 9x as much 💵 on hair care products than any other demographic, but these products are often full of #toxicchemicals. Check out our 2024 database of non-toxic Black beauty products to find safer Black beauty options: https://t.co/z2Dv7Cumub

I got my start in politics by advocating for consumer safety. Many years later, the fight continues. Thanks to @BCPPartners for stopping by to chat about how to ban dangerous chemicals from beauty and personal care products. We won’t stop until all products are safe!

PFAS, found in 97% of Americans' blood, is a "forever chemical" threatening human health and the environment. Five states have banned PFAS in cosmetics, but we need a federal ban for everyone's protection, no matter where you live or shop.
