$35billion spent on makeup every year is hiding something!!
When a relationship starts out based on phoney expectations and false promises, we get a +50% divorce rate, for one.
A young lady recently lamented "I don't get paid much here, not even enough to buy my makeup, and how can I ever get a boyfriend without my makeup?" she was almost in tears, I could see that she really felt hopeless.
Right away, I offered to fuck her. That didn't seem to be what she was trying to tell me - the stinging slap on my face told me I had said the wrong thing. {gosh I am funny eh?]
Beyond the toxic start to relationships [courtesy of mass-advertising brainwashing that creates a consumer base based on our insecurites that we are not good enough on our own,as we are] where makeup is a central element , the makeup itself is toxic physically.
The FDA says:"FDA cannot require companies to do safety testing of their cosmetic products before marketing".
Or, they don't WANT to. They COULD, but that would just make trouble as customers get freaked out by the poisens in the products. THe FDA acts like it has a vested interest in cosmetic corporation's profits.... well , yes, they do - protecting corporate profits is what the FDA is all about. Protecting the public is not.
CUSTOMERS themselves could elicit a change in toxic products by doing one very essential tactic : DON'T BUY IT ULESS THE INGREDIENTS ARE LISTED.
There is no rule that says anything but food needs to declare the ingredients, but there is no rule that says they can't if they choose to.
"WAAAA" "Trade secrets will be lost then!" they cry...
no they won't - a product's uniqueness is all about the ratios and processes and so on that are not being disclosed by listing ingredients.
But losing customers for a lack of label information is still lost. It won't work to demand listing of ingredients unless enough people do it.
I do it, I have done it faithfull for several years where I find the product I am needing, and read the label. If the product goes on my skin or in my mouth, or is something I might breathe in, I put it back on the shelf UNLESS THE INGREDIENTS ARE LISTED.
And if they are listed, I put it back on the shelf if the ingredients are toxic.
As for the ingredients that I don't know about - if they are toxic or not - its easy to go home and Google it. I have even asked to use a store computer to Google with. And one time I asked the store's manager if I could google his daughter. He didn't understand what I meant, so he hit me. Its a good thing he didn't understand or he would have really hurt me!! [kidding, lighten up eh?]
