Summary

Shein Preschool Penguin T-Shirt & Shorts Set scores 1/100. Independent lab testing by Greenpeace (2025) detected heavy metal antimony (Sb) and phthalates DEHP and DEHtP. Antimony is a toxic metalloid that irritates skin and damages organs. Phthalates are endocrine disruptors harmful to child development. A preschool clothing set combining a heavy metal and endocrine disruptors is deeply concerning — young children have maximum skin exposure and developing bodies that absorb these chemicals readily.
