Basq is not a sighner of "Pact for safe cosmetics" either. That should give you something to think about. All they do is cover their tracks with celebrity faces. Ingredients found in their products: Triethanolamine (TEA) Rates (6) on SD, human immune system toxicant Fragrance (8), link to phthalates, link to genital abnormalities in boys. Propylene Glycol (4-7), carcinogen Hexylene Glycol (4-5) irritant Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A) (5) derevative of Retinol, known for birth defects Sodium Laureth Sulfate (3-6) strong irritant DMDM Hydantoin (7-9) human immune system toxicant, restricted/banned in Japan (!!!) Polyethylene (6-8) Not safe for use on injured or damaged skin PEG-100 Stearate (5-7) evidence of sense organ toxicity, endocrine system disruption , Not safe for use on injured or damaged skin Ceteareth-12 (5-9) Not safe for use on injured or damaged skin, brain and nervous system neurotoxicity evidence. Ceteareth-20 (5-9) Dioxane contamination concern, neurotoxic. Urea (5), human immune system toxicant Iodopropynl Butylcarbamate (4-6), Human toxicant - strong evidence, restricted in Japan.

There is not a way to test for 100% safety. I have seen inghredients in Basq skincare that are linked to birth defects. I think it sounds like hype.
