Girls like cosmetics - they like to spend hours trying out different makeup colors and creating new looks for their faces. It's part of growing from little girl to woman.
And that would be fine, if it weren't for the dangerous chemicals in those cosmetics.
It seems that cosmetics manufacturers don't really have any rules to follow, so they can put anything they want into those bottles, jars, and tubes - no matter what the danger to young women's health.
The result: girls are showing dangerous levels of hormone-disrupting chemicals in their bodies. This, along with the estrogen-mimicking chemicals found in plastics, teflon, and other products, could well be the reason why kids bodies are maturing too soon.
The good news is, some manufacturers are responsible, so your girls don't have to give up makeup - they just need to be careful and read labels. You'll find a comprehensive list of ingredients and products to avoid at: The Environmental Working Group's website.
