Toxic Beauty Documentary - is it a load of crap? Plus, do you use DevaCurl?
This week it's just me, because I really wanted to share my thoughts on the latest 'controversial' documentary to target the beauty industry; Toxic Beauty, a documentary created by Phyllis Ellis.
It all started with an Instagram post by beauty journalist Jessica L Yarbrough, promoting an article she'd written on the doc for US Vogue. So of course I had to watch the doc. At first glance, I thought it was simply about the beauty industry, but actually, much of the focus is on the 15,000+ lawsuits filed by women with cancer that have been taken out against Johnson & Johnson, the leading manufacturer of talc. Have you watched the documentary yet? I'd love to know your thoughts. Links to the doc below as well as everything else I mention.
On a side note about toxic products, I'm also keen to find out if any of you use DevaCurl. After seeing YouTuber, and former DevaCurl ambassador Ayesha Malik slate the products, I'd love to know your thoughts or if you've experienced any issues yourself. Feel free to send me a voice note in my Instagram DMs, or email me beautymepodcast@gmail.com. See you next week!
