Did you know?

• The United States has not passed a major federal law to regulate the safety of ingredients used in personal care products since 1938.
   

• There are more than 80,000 chemicals on the market today. Many don’t have any safety data.
   

• This is particularly true of those used in the skin care and beauty industry.
   

• In the United States, women of color suffer from a higher incidence of chronic diseases that have been linked to exposure to toxic chemicals.

​

We shouldn't have to compromise our health and safety to feel beautiful.

My Why.

I have many reasons for being a part of Beautycounter's mission to get safer products into the hands of everyone.

I’m a Clean Beauty Advocate because…

...the beauty industry I've been a part of for over 20 years needs serious reform that considers the safety of those who use personal care products worldwide. Laws need to change.

​

...I lost 3 friends to cancer last year. 

​

...the complications of toxins in personal care products can be as serious as cancer, autoimmune disease, infertility, and many more.

​

...I discovered my thyroid condition was environmentally induced. 

​

...1 in 3 children will be diagnosed with one of the four A's: autism, asthma, ADHD, and allergies and some cases are due to exposure to harmful chemicals in common products.

​

...my son has been diagnosed with two of the "A's," autism and allergies, which could have been due to environmental chemical exposure. 

​

...in the United States, women of color suffer from a higher incidence of chronic diseases that have been linked to exposure to toxic chemicals. I am a woman of color, so this issue hits home for me.

​

...I'm up for the challenge to advocate for safer beauty laws. 

​

...I want to make a significant social impact by educating and empowering others with knowledge to make safer choices.

​

...we shouldn't have to compromise our health and safety for beauty.

​

...I'm willing to stand up for you until you’re ready to stand beside me.

​

We have to become advocates for our families and ourselves. Together we can lead the change.
