The New ‘Toxic Beauty’ Documentary Asks: Are Skin-Care Products the New Cigarettes?A thought-provoking documentary, Toxic Beauty, condenses a three-year investigation of the virtually unregulated chemicals in personal care products into 90 minutes. Yikes! I believe I saw the one on counterfeit products in Santee Alley in LA. I wish people would stop cheapening their life experiences. Allowing an industry to self regulate is insane. If you surveyed customers in a cosmetics store, it’s doubtful any would know the year the safety laws regarding the products they were buying were written. Lobbyists have kept our health & safety in peril.

New Mississippi governor will close part of notorious state prisonMississippi to close part of a state prison that has been rocked by deadly violence, Gov. Reeves says in first State of the State address. 'I have seen enough,” Reeves said. 'We have to turn the page.' I really don't see how this stops the violence since, you know, the prisoners are committing the violence, not a building, and the prisoners are just going to be moved somewhere else. How many of those 12 deaths were suicide? And how do these changes stop the gang violence? 🧐 😂😂 “In Mississippi, we know there is pride in a trade. We know that there is money to be made,” Reeves said. “We can let the East Coast have their ivory towers. We can let the West Coast have a generation of gender studies majors. We will take more jobs and higher pay.”
