Not Just a Pretty Face
Not Just a Pretty Face by Stacy Malkan takes an unflinching look at the hazardous chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products. Following activists and advocates, the book uncovers hidden dangers in beauty products and pushes for a future of safer, healthier personal care. As Malkan reveals, the cosmetics industry remains largely unregulated in the U.S., despite the European Union banning over 1,100 toxic ingredients. With passionate calls for reform, Not Just a Pretty Face is an essential guide to understanding the need for non-toxic alternatives. Published by New Society Publishers, this book is a powerful resource for anyone concerned about what they put on their bodies.
