Just BeautifulHere's something you're probably not thinking about when you're brushing your teeth, changing the little one's diaper, and putting on deodorant in the morning: before you even make it to the breakfast table, you've probably used almost 15 personal care products with over 100 host of toxic ingredients. The chemicals in your face cream, your diaper cream, your shampoo, and your lipstick have been linked to cancer, birth defects, infertility, and a long list of health concerns.
Over 1,700 cancer-causing, hormone disrupting, and allergy-inducing substances have been banned or restricted in European personal care products.

Find out more about how these substance affect you, and where to find safer alternatives.
We think Canadians have enough to worry about in the mornings. We deserve to be kept informed and safe from toxic substances in our cosmetics. It's time that Canadian cosmetic laws got a makeover. For you, for all of us. Now.
