The Story of Cosmetics examines the pervasive use of toxic chemicals in our everyday personal care products, from lipstick to baby shampoo.
The seven-minute film reveals the implications for consumer and worker health and the environment, and outlines ways that industries can move away from hazardous chemicals and towards safer alternatives.

How to go all natural:
If, after watching this movie you wonder what on earth you can still apply to your skin without harming yourself, there are safe alternatives you can try.
Use basic soap and water for cleansing.
Try pure coconut oil, olive oil or shea butter oil as moisturizing options.
Use a little bicarbonate of soda mixed with water as a deodorant instead of commercial deo sprays and antiperspirants that may contain cancer causing chemicals.
