Tell WA Department of Ecology: Ban formaldehyde releasers in cosmetics!

Tell Washington’s Department of Ecology: Finalize this rule and protect our health!

Formaldehyde in beauty products can cause cancer, asthma, and hormone harm. Now, Washington state is leading the way with a strong rule to ban all formaldehyde releasers in cosmetics.

This sets a powerful national precedent—pushing safer products for everyone, no matter where you live or shop.

 

Sample comment language: 

I strongly support Ecology’s draft rule to ban all formaldehyde releasers in cosmetics. These harmful chemicals can cause cancer, asthma, and other serious health issues—and they don’t belong in products we use on our bodies. Please finalize the rule and ensure strong enforcement to protect public health and the environment.
