It’s pretty great for finding a soap or sunscreen that will be easy on your body and the planet. Thanks, Environmental Working Group!

I just want to point out that, when browsing fragrances and sort from worst to best, you have to get to page 7of 18 to even reach “Moderate Hazard”, so 30% of tested products were classified as “High Hazard”.
This is consistent with information available elsewhere: https://www.bcpp.org/resource/right-to-know-exposing-toxic-fragrance-chemicals-report

I was baffled that quite a few people were not aware of how harmful many fragrances are.
Thanks to massive lobbying, and this won’t surprise anyone on Lemmy, but cosmetics as a whole have no regulatory oversight mechanism. The FDA can recommend things and it’s up to corporations to self-regulate, which usually works well with no significant fines to deter bad actors.
Don’t let your kids use anything.
Yup and “health supplements” are in the same boat
