Secret Charles, CCEJ's Toxic Beauty Campaign coordinator describes our campaign. The Toxic Beauty Project is a collaborative project between CCEJ and the Environmental Coalition of South Seattle (ECOSS) that aims to improve human health and the environment in nail salons located in low income communities and communities of color. Many chemicals found in beauty products that are commonly used in salons are hazardous to human health, and nail salon technician s are exposed to them on a daily basis. In King County, as well as nationwide, the majority of salon workers and owners are Asian immigrant women, so exposure tends to be disproportionate. We hope to involve all individuals and groups in the process of promoting the use of safer practices and products, from consumer to business owner, salon employee to beauty industry
