Related storiesBryn Mawr has become one of several ritzy sleepaway camps — including Camp Mataponi in Maine and Tyler Hill Camp in Pennsylvania — that have sent letters discouraging or explicitly banning luxury skincare products.
AdvertisementJane Kagan, left, said she knew she had a problem when fourth and fifth graders were asking her about bringing their many skincare products to camp.
Tali Shustik, whose 9-year-old daughter, Jett, attends Tyler Hill, said she was "thrilled" when she got the email from Siegel discouraging beauty products at camp.
While Tyler Hill hasn't enacted an all-out ban, it allows campers to bring only the products they use regularly.
