The Great Microbeads Hoax
Did You Know
The Great Microbeads Hoax episode exposes the truth about microbeads. These tiny beads are added to many personal care products, but they're actually harming our environment. Listen to this episode to learn more.
Should you be worried about microbeads? Pick up a bottle of facial scrub and there's a chance it'll contain these really small beads of plastic. They're designed to gently strip away the outer dead layers of your skin, and leave you feeling tingly fresh. Since the 1990s, these beads have been used in thousands of products: foundations, facial scrubs, shampoos, exfoliants, face polish, and even toothpaste. They're typically around a millimetre or less in diameter, so similar in size to a grain of sugar. Unfortunately, while they seem effective, they may create problems.
