#CleanBeautyForAll
Let’s make room for clean beauty products in major retail stores such as Walgreens, Rite-Aid, Costco, CVS, Kroger and more. Why? Because many of the beauty products available in the U.S. contain toxic chemicals that are actually banned in the EU and other parts of the world. Providing better choices allows consumers to have better habits. Walgreens
The Problem:
Toxic chemicals are one of the leading drivers of climate change and a huge culprit of the biodiversity crisis which profoundly affects us, wildlife, and our environment.
Toxins that we put on our nails, hair, and skin not only bring us harm from inside our bodies, but contaminate our environment through waterways, soil, and agriculture - polluting our clean sources.
While non-toxin alternatives to soaps, shampoos, conditioners, nail polishes, makeup, etc. are available, most consumers can only access them through online and specialty retailers. We understand that people are busy and in order to create change we must make clean beauty accessible to ALL in major retail stores.

Study Shows ‘Forever Chemicals’ from Topical Beauty Products Absorb Through Skin
“If you put some of these products directly onto your skin and they contain PFAS, there’s a very high potential for them to be transferred across the skin.”
-Stuart Harrad, PhD University of Birmingham, Co-Author of ‘Dermal Bioavailability of Perfluoroalkly Substances …’
The Solution:
Join our Clean Beauty for All Movement and help us ask mass retailers to provide options for toxin-free products, allowing consumers to more consciously make better choices for what they put on and in our bodies and ultimately in our environment.
Up next, we believe it is time for a big legislative push that bans toxic chemicals such as phthalates, formaldehyde, parabens, and coal tar in U.S. We want to align with the EU restrictions and regulations that prohibits many toxic ingredients in beauty products. Scroll down to learn more.
