Toxic Beauty

Synopsis:

Each morning we slather with 1000’s of chemicals hidden inside cosmetics and personal care products, many of which are toxic. In the United States, the Cosmetic and Personal Care Industry regulates itself. Links to hormonal disruption in baby boys, developmental delays, low sperm count in men. Infertility, cancer, diabetes, obesity and skin disease – the cosmetic industry isn’t pretty. Top researchers worldwide have the hard science to answer the question: “Are cosmetics and personal care products making us sick?”
