You’re Invited – “Not So Pretty: The Tea on Toxic Beauty” Virtual Film ScreeningDear Marie, Beauty shouldn’t come with a warning label, yet millions of us are exposed to harmful chemicals every day. We trust the products we use every day, but what happens when that trust is misplaced? Join Clean Water Action and partners for a powerful evening of film and conversation: “Not So Pretty” — a virtual screening and discussion exposing the hidden dangers in everyday beauty products. We take care of our hair with daily shampoos and conditioning rituals, but the absence of industry regulations often puts us in harm’s way. Not So Pretty exposes the root of the problem, showing how corporations have avoided accountability for decades while consumer advocates provide need-to-know tips before you lather up. This 34-minute episode, “Hair” (Rated TV-PG, 2022), uncovers how beauty products marketed to women, especially women of color, often contain toxic chemicals linked to cancer, infertility, and hormonal disruption. Following the film, we’ll host a community discussion on how to demand transparency, protect our health, and push for stronger beauty laws. Hosted by Clean Water Action, Clean Beauty Coalition, Crossroads4Hope, New Jersey Environmental Justice Alliance, and Rutgers Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute. Reserve your spot today — and join us in taking action for cleaner, safer, and fairer beauty standards for all!
