“The Story of Cosmetics”
Tomorrow when you get up, try counting how many products get put into or onto your body before you leave the house. Chances are good it’ll be around 12. Then try counting the chemicals. It’ll be in the hundreds, most of them not even tested for safety. This is the reality of toxins in our cosmetic products.
Annie Leonard, who brought us the brilliant “Story of Stuff” has recently released “The Story of Cosmetics” in which she exposes the grim truth about how our regular everyday household shampoos and lipsticks are loading our bodies with carcinogens, neurotoxins and reproductive toxins. Annie entertains and informs with this 8-minute piece.
