And a combination of racist beauty standards and aggressive target marketing have led young women and femme-identifying people of color to higher rates of use for these harmful products \u2013 on top of already being exposed to disproportionate amounts of toxic chemicals.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New York State's Beauty Justice Act (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nysenate.gov\/legislation\/bills\/2025\/S2057\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">S.2057<\/a>\/<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nysenate.gov\/legislation\/bills\/2025\/A2054\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A.2054<\/a>)<b>, <\/b>also known as the Safe Personal Care and Cosmetics Act, would ban the most dangerous toxic chemicals from the majority of personal care and cosmetic products sold in the state.

We have even had some success with our bill <a href=\"https:\/\/weact.org\/programs\/banning-pfas-in-mentrual-products\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">banning PFAS and other toxic chemicals in menstrual products<\/a> being unanimously passed by the New York State legislature.\r\n\r\nThe question was are most often asked is what cosmetics and other personal care products are safe to use.
