What's with all the #misinformation on social media about #sunscreens?

There are new brand activations and ambassadors at outdoor events all summer. And today's #suncare formulas are more inclusive and easier to wear than ever before.... What gives?

Trust science, not social media! The Personal Care Products Council (PCPC) addresses harmful misinformation about sunscreens circulating online. “In light of the increased need for sun protection in the summer, misinformation on social media about sunscreen use is not just misleading but dangerous. Some influencers falsely claim that sunscreen is unnecessary, harmful or ineffective. These assertions contradict decades of scientific research confirming that ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is a proven cause of skin cancers, including melanoma, the deadliest form.” https://lnkd.in/e2GZn_zj #SunscreenSafety #SkinHealth #TrustScience

PCPC’s Karin Ross discusses the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act (MoCRA) with Cosmetics & Toiletries. "Signed into law in December 2022, MOCRA is now set into motion, starting with requirements for facility registrations and product listings. As the industry knows, this is the first major legislation for cosmetics in the U.S. since 1938. This made us wonder: After 85+ years, why implement it now? What were the drivers? What concerns is it built to address and how? Here, Karin Ross (KR), executive vice president for government affairs at the Personal Care Products Council (PCPC), responds." https://lnkd.in/e-fTBUV8

These fake "dupes" can be harmful and don't meet the safety standards you expect from genuine brands. With the rise in online shopping, awareness of the risks is more important than ever. The Stopping Harmful Offers on Platforms by Screening Against Fakes in E-Commerce, or "SHOP SAFE" Act of 2023, is here to help. This legislation encourages online platforms to adopt practices that prevent the sale of counterfeit goods, protecting consumers from potentially dangerous products. Why should you care? • Counterfeit personal care products can bypass safety regulations, posing serious risks to your health. • Nearly 25% of U.S. consumers have unknowingly purchased counterfeit goods online. • Common counterfeit items include cosmetics, skin care products, and more. The SHOP SAFE Act helps by: ✅ Holding platforms accountable for counterfeit sales. ✅ Encouraging platforms to screen and vet sellers. ✅ Ensuring consumers have the information needed to make safe purchases. Learn how to protect yourself and support safer online shopping.
