Do You Know If Your Cosmetics Are Safe?

Drop by the Green Booth to learn about The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics. This is a coalition effort launched in 2004 to protect the health of consumers and workers by securing the corporate, regulatory and legislative reforms necessary to eliminate dangerous chemicals from cosmetics and personal care products. This is a great chance to pick their brain about the choices that your family makes and what you have in your home.

They're working with more than 100 endorsing organizations, thousands of grassroots supporters and over 1,300 companies that have signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics. They're advocating for a new green economy that respects life and the environment.

Key nonprofit coalition partners in the Campaign include the Alliance for a Healthy Tomorrow (represented by Clean Water Action and Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition), the Breast Cancer Fund, Commonweal, Environmental Working Group, Friends of the Earth and Women’s Voices for the Earth. The Breast Cancer Fund, a national 501(c)(3) organization focused preventing breast cancer by identifying and eliminating the environmental links to the disease, serves as the national coordinator for the Campaign.
