Campaign for Safe Cosmetics names Lily Organics a Champion
Henderson, CO - Lily Organics was recently named a Champion by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics. Out of 1500 companies that signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics over the last seven years, Lily Organics was one of the 321 that reached Champion status. To receive this honor, a company had to ‘comply with the European Union’s Cosmetics Directive, disclose all ingredients [even when they contain hormone disruptors, carcinogens and other harmful chemicals], publish and regularly update product information in EWG’s Skin Deep cosmetics database and participate in the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics.’ FAQ from CSC website
“Congratulations to Lily Organics for being a Champion and for demonstrating that it's possible to make personal care products that far exceed current safety standards in the United States. A growing number of consumers are seeking personal care products that do not contain hazardous chemicals, and our report shows that making safer products is not only possible, but is also part of a successful business model,” said Mia Davis, organizing director of the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and coordinator of the new Safe Cosmetics Business Network.
The Compact that Lily Organics, and over 1500 companies, signed was created for cosmetic and personal care companies to fully disclose the ingredients in their products, and to become recognized for being chemical-free. The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics is releasing their news report, “Market Shift: The story of the Compact for Safe Cosmetics and the growth in demand for safe cosmetics’ to talk about the companies the campaign worked with in order to help improve the movement for safer products. For over 25 years, Lily Organics has been growing ingredients on its USDA Certified Organic farm to make chemical-free skin care and is proud to be recognized for its efforts.
