The FDA (American - so there might be trust issues) tested baby powder products multiple times and found no asbestos IIRC

Not anymore in 2021 and 2022. But Johnson & Johnson paid billions in damages for cancer victims who were exposed to asbestos in their baby powder.

I did not know that and looked it up. $2.2 billion in 2021. I have no idea whether we used a baby powder in 1990 that actually used talcum powder, or not. What’s done is done at this point.

I looked it up and the Clubman Talc I’m using post-shave has no actual talcum powder in it. (FWIW)

  Yeah, no point worrying at this point.
