What’s in Your Clothes? Most people don’t realize that conventional clothing is full of hidden chemicals—many of which can be harmful to your skin, health, and the environment. From the moment fabrics are dyed, treated, and finished, they are exposed to toxic substances such as:
 ⚠ Formaldehyde – Used to prevent wrinkles but can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions.
⚠ Azo Dyes – Common in synthetic fabrics, some forms of these dyes release carcinogenic amines.
 ⚠ Heavy Metals – Lead, cadmium, and mercury can be found in pigments and textile treatments.
⚠ Chlorinated Solvents – Used in stain-resistant and water-repellent coatings, linked to health risks.
⚠ Phthalates & BPA – Found in printed graphics and synthetic materials, known endocrine disruptors.
 These chemicals don’t just stay in your clothes—they transfer to your skin and release into the air with heat, sweat, and wear.
