Why is No One Talking About This?! 🔍 Mica & Child Labor Free Makeup

A huge ethical issue so many makeup brands unfortunately ignore.
Check out my list of brands using ethically-sourced or synthetic mica: https://mygreencloset.com/ethical-mica-makeup

Mica is in most of our makeup and unfortunately has terrible child labour issues. Can you really be proudly "cruelty free" and use child labour? 🤔
