It's also important to test ingredients as they come in and not wait until people get sick. Prevention is always better! But I too use mineral makeup and did a ton of research before settling on a brand because of all the reactions people were having with bismuth oxychloride..

Not only should this new category regulate all OTC skin care, but put an end to the bizzare claims of the natural stuff. Natural could be more harmful when compared to chemical.

I hadn't thought of the new category, but that could be a good option. More regulation for sure!

Just look at how all of our imports have lead and god forbid who knows what else. I am a true believer in <a href="//www.afterglowcosmetics.com/”" rel="nofollow"> organic cosmetics </a> and <a href="//www.afterglowcosmetics.com/”" rel="nofollow"> mineral makeup </a>, and I will use nothing less on my body or anyone else.
