What Are We Trying to Solve?
In the beauty industry, many products are filled with toxic chemicals that can harm your health, especially for women of color. Our goal at Green-Beauty Co. is to offer a safe and holistic alternative to these harmful products.
-
Toxic Chemicals in Skincare: Research shows that 45% of beauty products marketed to Black women contain harmful ingredients like phthalates, parabens, and formaldehyde, which are linked to hormone disruption and reproductive issues EWG GW Today
-
For example, a 2016 study found that women of color who frequently used certain beauty products had a 150% higher exposure to harmful chemicals that can lead to birth defects and other health risks GW Today
-
Health Impacts: These chemicals are linked to severe health problems, including fibroids, early puberty, and even breast cancer. Women of color, in particular, are exposed to higher levels of these toxins, and many products marketed to them are not sufficiently regulated. Our mission is to eliminate this toxic burden, providing clean, non-toxic products that promote wellness from the inside out.
-
Sustainability for Future Generations: Beyond personal health, we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of the beauty industry. Our formulations are eco-friendly and crafted with sustainability in mind, respecting both the planet and the people who use them.
At Green-Beauty Co., we’re solving the problem of toxic exposure in personal care by offering products that are pure, simple, and safe—because taking care of your skin should never come at the expense of your health.
