The Demand For Safer is Working!
May marks Beautycounter’s 1 year anniversary when we sent 100 consultants from all 50 states to Washington D.C. to meet with members of Congress. We held 100 meetings with key members of Congress and the Executive Branch, to advocate for more health protective beauty lawsOn March 4th we hosted thousands of Socials and send over 35,000 emails to Congress and Parliament asking for better beauty laws.The week following, we had over 80 meetings taking place with Congress, in 41 states, 8 Canadian provinces, with over 450 people participating.Since we began a little over 4 years ago, we have held over 500 meetings, made more than 3,500 calls, and sent approximately 80,000 emails urging members of Congress and Parliament to pass laws to better regulate the industry.We still have a long road ahead of us, but progress is happening. I love hearing about companies reformulating their products, stores like Target and CVS making changes to the products they carry to provide their customers with safer options.Strength is in numbers and when we support companies that are providing safer products it shows that we put these as priorities. Our dollars speak volumes in this industry! Thank you to each and every one of you that have supported me, Beautycounter, and other companies trying to shift the needle. Without your support we would not be making the progress we are seeing.
