Industry is stepping up efforts to lead the "modernization" of cosmetics legisla-tion with the creation of the Safe Cosmetics Alliance, a coalition of beauty and personal-care stakeholders. The Alliance comprises a "diverse coalition representing the entire spectum" of industry, including nail salon workers, small business owners, direct sellers and leading personal-care manufacturers, the group says in a Sept. 21 release. With the mantra "Sound Science for Safe Products," members of the alliance include the Independent Cosmetics Manufacturers & Distributors (ICMAD),the pro-fessional Beauty Association (PBA), Direct Selling Association (DSA) and the per-sonal Care Products Council.
