@cultureapothecary: Do you use clean makeup brands? Laura DiGirolamo, is a beauty attorney, industry insider, and founder of YOM Beauty, and she's blowing the whistle on one of the biggest blind spots in modern beauty. We're talking flavored balms, vanilla frosting lip masks, tinted glosses — products literally designed for your mouth, treated like they never enter your body at all. She breaks down what's actually in them, why the science is scarier than anyone wants to admit, and what industry insiders already know but won't say out loud.

Mimi Wilder :

Aesop lip gloss yall!!!! its so good

Manessa Lo | 👩🏾‍🔬💄✈️ :

Cosmetic chemist here . . . Titanium Dioxide is not a microplastic. It’s a mineral compound found in nature and used for pigment (colorations) purposes in lip products . . . .

Nathania :

let us live

Jennifer :

Can we normalize giving us options that are safe

Allison Foster :

But titanium dioxide isn’t a microplastic… it’s an inorganic mineral. Let’s normalize at least being scientifically accurate.

MamaZ RN | Wellness Simplified :

But not mentioning safe brands…thanks.

J.Nicole :

Can we just get the short list of what we can use?

Witten_4life :

My husband used to work for a company that sold self cleaning touch surfaces. Used on elevator buttons, handrails, door handles etc. The EPA shut down the company bc titanium dioxide was an ingredient. However the level of TO that was used was less than what was found in gum and skittles. Yet gum and skittles still remain on the shelves. Make it make sense

angie_muresan :

Excuse me, but aren’t they both wearing lipstick?

Jamie Aubin17 :

If you eat Oreos or skittles your eating titanium dioxide powder coffee creamers also have it. There lots of our food that has it so I’m like why are we just talking about lip products?

laineemcintyre :

Let's go back to coloring our lips with beat juice and tumeric like the olden days 🥲

samanthagirl1111 :

Can we normalize brands making things that won’t harm us?

Lauren :

I use Marin only ❤️

Alila’s drawings :

But every lipgloss has it, name me one product that don’t has it, it’s even in blush foundation everything. So

breonna621 :

Bro IM TIRED.

Amy Awosina :

When does it become that Human LIVES are more Valuable than MONEY???!! Let’s start THERE. Then the morality of selling these types of products would change. But until Human Life is valued MORE than material things this WILL continue!

David Brown :

Stay on topic. Titanium oxide isn’t plastic.

sbullock :

why does the FDA even exist?

Moon Dragon :

I’m so sick of this ! No one is held accountable
