Your pores are like teeny-tiny mouths.
Whatever you put on top of them, they eat!
AND 
Yes, this means the pores on your butt do,
in a way, eat your underwear.
​Freaky, right!?

TARYN IS THE FOUNDER OF BEYOND THE LABEL:

Beyond the Label (BtL) started as a partnership between EcoDivas LLC and TEDxLA to educate Angelenos about the true health, social and environmental cost of their fashion purchases. BtL now addresses the question “What's in my tee?” to encourage shoppers to consider what their T-shirt is made of and how it affects themselves, the workers, and the world!
