Hand Sanitizers Linked to 1 Factory Contain the Toxic Ingredient Methanol, Warns the FDA

Image
On June 19, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning on hand sanitizer manufactured by Eskbiochem SA de CV in Mexico due to a potential presence of methanol in the formula. Methanol, or wood alcohol, is a substance that can be toxic when absorbed through the skin or ingested and therefore is not an acceptable ingredient for hand sanitizers . This notice comes amid the global coronavirus pandemic where there was a temporary shortage of sanitation products like hand sanitizer due to the spike in demand . Nine types of hand sanitizer products manufactured by Eskbiochem are being called out as dangerous: All-Clean Hand Sanitizer Esk Biochem Hand Sanitizer CleanCare NoGerm Advanced Hand Sanitizer 75% Alcohol Lavar 70 Gel Hand Sanitizer The Good Gel Antibacterial Gel Hand Sanitizer CleanCare NoGerm Advanced Hand Sanitizer 80% Alcohol CleanCare NoGerm Advanced Hand Sanitizer 75% Alcohol CleanCare NoGerm Advanced Hand Sanitizer 80% Alcohol Saniderm Advanced Ha

How to Hold Brands Accountable For Their Lack of Diversity, According to Sharon Chuter

Image
At the beginning of June, in response to an outpouring of beauty brands having voiced their support for the Black community following George Floyd's death, Uoma Beauty founder and CEO Sharon Chuter launched the Pull Up Or Shut Up Challenge . Her goal was to challenge brands to publicly disclose the number of Black employees working in their offices and headquarters as a way to call attention to the fact that far too many of these companies have claimed to be allies, though their hiring practices don't always reflect that. According to Chuter, not only do Black people make up only eight percent of corporate roles in America and three percent of management roles but only four Black people in the US are CEOs of Fortune 500 companies. Since the percentage of Black college graduates in America is 10 percent, she explained that all brands should strive to hit that number when hiring. Within a few days of announcing the initiative, dozens of brands "pulled up" and shared

Raven-Symoné Got Married in a Utility Jumpsuit, So Wedding Dresses Are Officially Outdated

Image
Raven-Symoné married Miranda Maday on June 18, 2020 in an intimate backyard celebration in front of family and friends. I am sure their guests were just as blown away by the brides' wedding outfit choice as I was: coordinating utility jumpsuits. Raven styled hers - which came with zippered pockets up and down the legs - with a pair of black Gucci ankle boots studded with sparkling crystals. She also wore statement drop rhinestone earrings that say "LOVED," because who needs pearls? Miranda, on the other hand, worked an ivory Gucci jumpsuit with the brand's signature stripes, pumps, and a white veil, and Raven's ombré hairstyle added all the color the two needed to balance out the neutrals and really pack a punch. Even though Raven and Miranda's looks definitely cost a pretty penny, we shopped out their bridal essentials after the jump. If nothing else, these clever looks are just making me reconsider a wedding dress altogether. Why not tie the knot in so

I'm definitely the type of person who DMs pals and coworkers asking them if they own something I'm considering buying, or if they have a strong recommendation.
