Introduction

The topic our group chose arose from the notion that the popular media has glamorized certain toxins. From movies to television shows to music, the overexposure of these toxins in products and services surrounding our daily lives has allowed them to become more acceptable and tolerable in our mainstream society.

The presentation will cover the crucial information of certain toxins used for cosmetic purposes such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and chemical peels as well as the toxins found in illegal drugs such as cocaine and thujone in absinthe.
