This bill, titled the "Cosmetic Safety for Communities of Color and Professional Salon Workers Act of 2025," seeks to amend the Public Health Service Act to improve cosmetic safety, with a specific focus on vulnerable populations. It mandates research into the health disparities experienced by communities of color due to cosmetic chemical exposures and investigates health concerns impacting professional nail, hair, and beauty salon workers. The legislation aims to identify harmful chemicals, understand their effects, and develop interventions to reduce exposure. The bill authorizes significant funding for research, including community-based participatory research, to investigate chemicals in cosmetics marketed to women and girls of color and those used by salon workers. These studies will examine adverse health effects and explore interventions to mitigate harm. The findings from this research are to be publicly disseminated and reported to Congress, providing crucial information for public health strategies. Two new National Resource Centers are established: one on Beauty Justice and another on Salon Worker Health and Safety . These centers will receive grants to conduct outreach, develop educational materials, and create collaborative partnerships to empower communities of color and salon workers with information on safe, non-toxic cosmetic choices. They will focus on culturally and linguistically appropriate strategies for diverse and underserved populations, including immigrant communities and the LGBTQIA community. A key provision requires the Secretary of Labor to issue a standard for Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for professional cosmetic products containing hazardous chemicals. Manufacturers must make these SDS available in multiple languages, including Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese, and Korean, on their websites. Employers, such as salon owners, must have SDS in the workplace and provide translations to employees upon request, ensuring workers understand potential chemical hazards. Furthermore, the bill expands the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) regulatory authority to include synthetic braids within the definition of a cosmetic. It mandates the FDA to establish safety standards for synthetic braids and requires warning labels for products that do not meet these standards. The bill also supports research into creating safer cosmetic alternatives, prioritizing those for professional products and those marketed to women and girls of color, and explicitly states that its provisions do not preempt state laws offering greater protections for synthetic braids.
