About this Petition Petition Letter

Everyday women are using cosmetic products with potentially cancer causing ingredients such as parabens and phthalates. Women should know about the harmful ingredients of everyday products they use. Because cosmetics do not have to be FDA approved they are put on the shelves without being regulated. This is potentially very harmful to the women you care about. This could be you, your wife, mother sister, daughter or friend. I kindly urge you to help put a stop to this! Demand that your cosmetics be FDA approved and push companies to use safer alternatives which they know are available! You are worth it and all the women you know are worth it.

FDA Approval Needed

Dear Representative

Everyday women are using harmful cosmetic products and are unaware of the damage that could be happening inside their bodies. This could be you, your wife, mother sister, daughter or friend. I kindly urge you to help put a stop to this!
Cosmetics do not have to be approved by the FDA before put on the shelves and they should be! Cosmetic companies should be banned from using potentially cancer causing ingredients like phthalates and parabens which are found in moisturizers and lotions, nail polish, shampoo and conditioners and more. These phthalates are normally regulated strongly but because cosmetics are not subject to approval by the FDA they are used by women everyday. There are safer alternatives that could be used! I insist that safe alternatives be used and that cosmetics be approved by FDA. Women deserve to know about and have available to them safe soap and cosmetics.
