Another victory for MuLondon and safe skincare everywhere!

The entire range of MuLondon organic, vegan skincare products has been named Champion in a new report issued by Campaign for Safe Cosmetics.

The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics announced today that MuLondon, together with 334 other cosmetics companies, has met the goals of the Compact for Safe Cosmetics, the Campaign’s voluntary pledge to avoid harmful chemicals and to fully disclose product ingredients - a pioneering practice in the cosmetics industry.

Being named Champion by Campaign for Safe Cosmetics shows my dedication to bringing safe skincare products to the market. All the products in MuLondon range are cruelty-free, organic and effective and MuLondon will always be at the forefront of truly natural, safe skincare.
 

The report “Market Shift: The story of the Compact for Safe Cosmetics and the growth in demand for safe cosmetics” describes the seven-year project during which the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics worked with MuLondon and hundreds of other companies in the personal care products industry to set a new high-bar standard for personal care products.  These best practices include: 
 

- Making products without using ingredients prohibited for use in cosmetics in other countries.    

- Disclosing all product ingredients, including those that make up “fragrance,” showing that it’s not necessary to hide these ingredients from the public.

- Working together with nonprofit health groups to increase market demand for safe, sustainable products and practices.

I am proud to say that MuLondon has signed The Compact for Safe Cosmetics, and we're now a full member.

The Compact for Safe Cosmetics is part of a campaign that works to improve the safety of cosmetics and personal care products on the market. It is founded by The Environmental Working Group, Breast Cancer Fund and Friends of the Earth, among others. One of The Compact's primary goals is to eliminate harmful chemicals from cosmetics and personal care products.

Upon signing The Compact for Safe Cosmetics, MuLondon commits to six provisions:

1. Comply with EU Cosmetics Directive; which means that none of the ingredients in MuLondon’s products may contain any of the 1,100 toxins and chemicals banned by the EU because they are linked to cancer and birth defects.

2. Disclose all ingredients; which means that MuLondon must list all ingredients both on its own website, and in the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics’ Skin Deep database.

3. Publish and update information; at least once yearly, MuLondon must update information about its products in the Skin Deep database so that consumers always have the latest information available to them.

4. Substitute harmful ingredients with safe alternatives; if MuLondon used any unsafe ingredients, it would have to replace them within a period of three years. Of course, MuLondon only uses safe, natural ingredients.

5. Substantiate safety of product ingredients; MuLondon commits to proving that the ingredients it uses are safe by submitting peer-reviewed studies that consider the impact of repeated use, and exposure to vulnerable groups such as infants and pregnant women.

6. Participate in the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics; finally, MuLondon commits to actively participate in conferences and meetings and sign annual certificate of compliance.

To this date, more than 1,300 companies have signed The Compact for Safe Cosmetics, but only 250 are fully compliant. MuLondon is one of the 250 fully compliant companies and receives zero hazard rating for all its products. That is the safest rating any product can get and means that MuLondon is among the safest skincare choices out on the market.
