The Toxic 10 & MoreTM

Are your oral, body, baby & home care products toxic?

Ingredients, whether healthy or harmful, are absorbed into your skin, bloodstream and organs in 26 seconds. We’re revealing a few of the 10,000 dangerous ingredients commonly found in products you trust. Most companies legally use cheap, toxic fillers to increase profits even though they harm the consumer. Avoid these proven carcinogens, neurotoxins, reproductive toxins and hormone disruptors.

Each day the average woman uses 12 personal care products containing 168 chemical ingredients.*

Each day the average man uses six products containing 85 chemicals.*

*June 2004 survey of 2,300 adults about personal care use, conducted by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) and the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics. Reconfirmed in 2008 Research on Personal and Skin Care Products conducted by EWG.
