US cosmetics are full of chemicals banned by Europe – why?
A long list of potentially harmful ingredients banned in the EU are legally allowed in the US due to historically relaxed regulations. In cosmetics alone, the EU has banned or restricted more than 1,300 chemicals while the US has outlawed or curbed just 11.
It’s possible to find formaldehyde, a known carcinogen banned in EU-sold cosmetics. Parabens, linked to reproductive problems, are ruled out in the EU but not the US, where they lurk in skin as well as your hair products. Coal tar dyes can be found in Americans’ eyeshadow, years after they were banned in the EU and Canada.
Many Americans are unaware that they are absorbing untested and unsafe chemicals in their products.
The EU has got it right. With our make-up brand – we do too!! We follow the credo standards and the European standards so you can trust what you’re putting on your face. Only the best of the best at an affordable price!
In the US we have a strong favoritism towards companies and manufacturers, to the extent that public health and the environment is being harmed. The pendulum has swung in an extreme way and it’s really going to take a general awakening by the public.
Here in the US ~ Cosmetics companies can use any raw material that they like and there’s no way to know if they are safe before they reach the shelves. The contrast with the EU is stark and troubling!
There are currently no legal requirements for any cosmetic manufacturer marketing products to American consumers to test their products for safety,
