Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Safety and Accountability Act

“We at the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR®) are proud to support the Personal Care Products Safety Act, introduced today by Senators Dianne Feinstein and Susan Collins. Women use these products daily, and deserve to know that these products are safe for them and their families. Safer personal care products result in healthier women and families.” – Phyllis Greenberger, SWHR Former President and CEO

The Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) proudly supports Senators Dianne Feinstein (D – CA) and Susan Collins (R– ME) in their efforts to introduce the Personal Care Products Safety Act. The Act will better regulate the cosmetics industry by updating guidelines that have remained unchanged since the 1930s. Women use these products daily, and safer, better-regulated personal care items means healthier women and families. SWHR commends this step towards advancing women’s health and the health of all Americans who use these products.
