Bobbi-Sue I was impressed that all the football players were supporting breast cancer research last night. Creative genius having football players wearing pink gloves and shoes.

rachelsarnoff oh god please don't get me started. i know estee lauder has done a ton of good with supporting breast cancer research but if a company that HUMUNGOUS would just take all the freakin TOXINS out of the beauty products, it would do the world a whole lot of good. pink ribbon that.

TheSmartMama I'm using it in the sense of companies that promote a pink product to raise money for breast cancer awareness, yet the product contains or the company sells products that are linked to breast cancer, like Estee Lauder and all the products containing parabens and phthalates; or some of the aluminum bottles being sold that have bisphenol A (BPA) in the lining.

TheSmartMama Right there with you Rachel. Was pissed about all the pink ribbon adorned aluminum re-usable water bottles with BPA IN THE EPOXY LINING. Cripes!

Emily Wow, that is really so depressing. If only they could see these events as more than publicity opportunities and time to do something real, down to the studs.
