the making of an event… teens for safe cosmetics.

making it happen

lip against lead!

Pledge!

So there I am suddenly among green and pink table cloths… here I am again showing up for what I love to do!  I am incredibly grateful that I get to work with TFSC!  A group of smart, savvy teens who want to make a difference in the cosmetic industry!  Their newest campaign is Lips Against Lead, banning lead from lipstick. Did you know that in 2007, the National Campaign for Safe Cosmetics found that lipstick from many top brands contained lead… tow thirds of the 33 samples tested contained detectable levels of lead: of those half were above the lead limit for candy.  WHAT?  WOW!

Pledge!

The event promoted organic, healthy options that are available; you DO not have to use products that contain harmful additives and toxins.

One by one the tables were covered with green, products were displayed and then the teens began to show up in their campaign t shirts, ready to tell the story, ready to change the world!

If you are a teen, a mom or someone interested in getting involved with a group of motivated people who are making a difference here is  your

teens going green!

You know I love Green, I love teens, I love beauty and feeling good on the inside which reflects to you… the outside view!

On Friday morning I was invited to the Teens For Safe Cosmetic Press Conference.

Healthy!

So green!

save water bottles.

they will get you everytime!

Whole Foods Launches…

I walked in and there “They” were!  The NEW, clean, non-carcinogenic, non-toxic products sitting pretty in green at Whole Foods!  The products have been created, tested, tried, and used by the Teens!  LOVE it.  They smell great and they feel amazing.

I suggest that if you are a kid, a teen, a model citizen, a mom of a teen model, or a if you are just looking for some great products (which by the way, meet the latest and greatest of Standards using the guide lines from Whole Foods Premium Skin Care values…) go to your local Whole Foods or go to the TFSC website and purchase the Teens Turning Green Skin Care Line…

Being in an industry that is constantly promoting beauty and fashion means that I have to stay on top of the cutting edge events, or products that come alive in this world, and honestly this is not always easy — the world moves quickly!  I feel lucky enough today to say that I am involved, and honored to be among great kids, and teens every week who care and want to make a difference!  Which brings me to …. On October 23rd we will launch our next issue of Real Kids Magazine… be watching for it…  Real Kids, Real Models, Real Life!

Become More.  More Than A Model.
