Frequently Asked Questions
We get asked these questions a lot. Here are our best answers.
Product Information
Our products are meticulously selected to meet the highest safety standards, steering clear of any harmful or questionable chemicals. We prioritize natural or non-toxic ingredients, ensuring they're gentle on young skin. Adhering to the Credo Clean Standard, we follow The Dirty List™ — the industry's most rigorous guideline, which bans or limits over 2700 chemicals due to safety and sustainability concerns. This commitment from our brand partners guarantees that you receive safer, superior products.
But we don’t stop there. We go above and beyond the Credo Clean Standard because children’s delicate skin is more absorbent than adult skin, making ingredient safety even more critical. While Credo encourages the use of natural ingredients over petroleum-derived ones, they do not prohibit all of them. That’s why we take it a step further and ban petroleum-derived colorants (dyes and pigments) in our products to ensure the cleanest and safest formulations possible.
Yes, we believe in full transparency. Every product page includes a detailed ingredient list so you can make informed choices for your child. You can also visit our Ingredient Glossary to learn what each ingredient is made of and its purpose.
Yes. Every product we carry is formulated to be gentle on sensitive skin and most of our products are hypoallergenic. Since every child is unique, we recommend a quick patch test on the inner elbow before use.
Our makeup collection is thoughtfully divided into “Makeup for Play” (ages 3+) and “Makeup for Practice” (ages 13+), making it easy to find age-appropriate options in both packaging and shades. You can browse both categories right from our site menu.

While many brands in the clean beauty space market themselves as non-toxic or safe for kids, we’ve found that not all live up to those claims. Some still include ingredients like FD&C dyes and lake pigments—colorants that are derived from petroleum and may be contaminated with heavy metals. These synthetic dyes are known to pose health risks, especially when ingested or absorbed through the skin, which is especially concerning for children with developing bodies and thinner skin barriers.
At Popsicle Beauty Club, we go beyond the marketing claims. We hand-select every product with ingredient integrity in mind—prioritizing natural, plant-based, and food-grade alternatives wherever possible. If a brand doesn’t meet our high standards for safety and transparency, we don’t carry it—no matter how popular it may be. Your child’s health and happiness are our top priority.
Health and Safety
Absolutely. Our products comply with all applicable safety standards and regulations for children’s cosmetics and play makeup.
We ensure every formula aligns with the FDA’s Voluntary Cosmetic Registration Program (VCRP) and adheres to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) guidelines for cosmetics.
For toys and accessories, we also ensure compliance with CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) standards, including the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA), which covers labeling and ingredient safety for products marketed to children.
Our products are cosmetic-grade, not toy-grade. While many kids’ play makeup sets are classified as toys—and avoid cosmetic safety standards—our brand partners align with cosmetic-grade manufacturing and ingredient safety protocols.
But we go further, exceeding industry requirements with in-house medical and toxicological reviews, prioritizing sensitive skin, non-toxic formulations, and full ingredient transparency.
Our commitment is to make playtime safe, with products held to personal care standards—not toy store novelties.
If your child has known allergens, we recommend reviewing the full ingredient list on the product page before purchasing.
Every formula is reviewed by our in-house allergist to ensure it meets the highest safety standards. While not every product is classified as hypoallergenic, each is formulated to be gentle on sensitive skin. Since every child is unique, we recommend a quick patch test on the inner elbow before use. Your child’s safety and comfort are always our top priority.
While our products are generally formulated and categorized for girls ages 3+ and 13+, please be aware that certain items may come with specific age recommendations detailed in the product descriptions on our website and/or on the product packaging.
For children with any specific serious conditions that require careful consideration, we advise consulting with a healthcare provider to ensure the product is appropriate for your child's needs.
Sustainability and Ethics
Yes—and then some! While we proudly prioritize brands that follow cruelty-free practices (meaning no animal testing at any stage), we go beyond typical standards like Leaping Bunny, which often focus only on testing and not on how ingredients are sourced.
Many so-called "cruelty-free" products still contain ingredients like carmine—a red pigment made from crushed beetles. At Popsicle Beauty Club, we do not carry products that contain carmine, because animal-derived ingredients that are not humanely sourced have no place in children's makeup or personal care.
We’re committed to transparency, safety, and compassion in every product we carry.
We’re committed to ethical, compassionate sourcing in every product we carry. No animals are used in our formulations, except for bee byproducts (beeswax, honey, pollen, propolis), lanolin, and keratin.
For bee byproducts, we’re working with our brand partners to certify humane and sustainable sourcing. Similarly, for lanolin and keratin, we ensure they come from sheep unharmed and are working towards certifications that guarantee they’re raised without toxic insecticides.
Yes, we offer a wide selection of vegan products, which are free from any animal-derived ingredients. If a product is vegan, this will be clearly indicated in the product description on our website.
Absolutely. While some of our brands still use less-than-ideal packaging, we’re committed to environmental responsibility. We've launched an incentive program to encourage our partners to adopt sustainable packaging, aiming to reduce our footprint and drive industry-wide change. This is an ongoing journey, and we invite our customers and brands to join us in making a positive impact.

Community and Engagement
Yes, we actively engage with our community through events, sponsorships, and partnerships.
One of our core initiatives is partnering with local domestic violence shelters to donate welcome bags filled with toiletries and small toys, as well as back-to-school backpacks stocked with school supplies and personal care items for the children living there. Many women and children are forced to flee with almost nothing, and we hope these gifts bring a sense of normalcy and dignity to their lives during an incredibly chaotic time.
