Fatal Attraction-Cosmetics and Chemicals

It’s hard to consider your lipstick may very well be slowly but surely killing you, but particular beauty products consist of harmful chemical substances such as aluminum, synthetic pigments, and lead which could bring about serious illnesses. It mystifies me why Americans are incredibly concerned with what we should put into the body,  nevertheless smear ourself down with hazardous products to appear more beautiful.  It may be mainly because we have been brainwashed from the FDA placing emphasis on food products and not adequate regulations on cosmetics.   It is unfortunate cosmetic products and ingredients aren’t subject to FDA premarket approval authority and they’re unauthorised to demand recalls of cosmetics which may be unsafe.  By the point a manufacturer understands its product is dangerous and voluntary recalls the item the American people have to endure the damage already done.  All this may be prevented in the event the regulations were more rigid within the United States.  There needs to be an instantaneous change!  I do think it is fascinating that European governments have banned 1222 times more chemicals compared to the U.S.  Precisely what does that say for our government’s ethical and moral obligation to protect its citizens?  Not a whole lot in my personal opinion!
