Teens for Safe Cosmetics Introduce First Eco-Skin Care for Teenagers
Hey there kiddos! School started for some of you just last week, and I bet you're all super-amped about that. Now, if you're a teenager in the same vein I was, you might need a good face wash. I know, it's okay. Happens to the best of us. But, the good news is, you can now be environmentally-friendly when you wash your face!The Teens for Safe Cosmetics have designed the Teens Turning Green collection of skin care stuff, and it will be available exclusively at Whole Foods by the end of the month. From a blog post announcing the exciting news,
It is the first line of truly eco-skin care that's been formulated specifically for teen skin! And as if that fact alone isn't enough, each of the products included in our line attains Whole Food Market's new Premium Body Care Standard, the most comprehensive in the industry. Knowing what you're putting on your skin is free of parabens and PEGs means that one less thing to worry about every day.
They've got all sorts of stuff coming out soon, from moisturizers to purifying masks to toning mist, whatever that is. And these teens certainly have the right idea for why they're doing this.
Teens for Safe Cosmetics is a coalition led by dynamic and passionate young women raising awareness about potentially harmful ingredients in beauty and daily use products that may be linked to cancer, reproductive harm and other health risks. Their mission is to educate the public about harmful chemicals found in cosmetics and personal care products, advocate for legislation that protects one's right to health and to inspire teens across the nation to work together around these issues and create change within their communities.
So awesome work ladies, and we here wish you the best of luck. You can do your part and takepart to find your nearest Whole Foods so you can help support these teens keep the world clean and beautiful.

I use a face cream that has powerful antioxidants from real blue berries. . .its from this organic and chemical free company called Made from Earth. It’s the “Three Berry Serum”. . .It has actual berries in it which are mixed with the lotion and applied to your face. Plus, I have sensitive skin and don’t put any chemicals in my body, and this one of the few face creams I have found that is 100% chemical free . .
Seriously - toxic synthetic chemicals in your lotions are not necessary. Human skin is porous which means that substances we put on our skin are absorbed directly into our bloodstream. This means these chemicals may end up in your liver or other organs.
