Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Only 11 percent of the 10,000-plus ingredients used in personal care products have been assessed by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review, the safety panel established and funded by the Personal Care Products Council that -- conflict of interest be damned -- is the primary source of information for the FDA's Office of Cosmetics and Colors. The industry touts the CIR as a scrupulous safeguard that renders outside oversight unnecessary, but in the more than three decades since it was founded, the panel has deemed a scant nine ingredients unsafe. And manufacturers aren't even under any obligation to follow the CIR's recommendations -- one of the nasty nine, the likely carcinogen hydroxyanisole, is still found in Porcelana skin cream, for instance.

So who knows any nice, natural recipes for making one's own make-up?

You could just use thumbtack, they are reuseable.  Or switch their mascara with CrazyGlue, which given what they are saying here, might well be safer.

Anybody remember that trailer for the second Resident Evil movie, the one that's scripted like a make-up ad, where the model is punting this revolutionary age-reversing cream made by Umbrella ... then her face begins to melt and she turns into a zombie.

I really did love those movies to bits. :P

Zombies are cool, no matter what.  And they are growing and becoming a lot more public.

(Since zombies eat brains, I've always considered myself safe from attack)

I wouldn't say zombies are cool, unless you're referring to their body temperature. But I agree they are growing.

At least they lost the white house! :)

This is SF, zombies are cool.
