Lead In Your Lipstick! Beware!

Ladies What you don't know about the ingredients in your lipstick
may be very BAD for your health:


Lead Found in Many Lipstick Brands:


The Brands which contain lead are:

1. CHRISTIAN DIOR

2. LANCOME

3. CLINIQUE

4. Y.S.L

5. ESTEE LAUDER

6. SHISEIDO

7. RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)

8. CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)

9. MARKET AMERICA-MOTNES LIPSTICK.


The higher the lead content, the greater the chance of causing cancer.


After doing a test on lipsticks, it was found that the Y.S.L.lipstick contained the most amount of lead.

Watch out for those lipsticks which are supposed to stay longer. If your lipstick stays longer, it is because of the higher content of lead.

Here is the test you can do yourself:

1. Put some lipstick on your hand.

2. Use a Gold ring to scratch on the lipstick.

3. If the lipstick color changes to black then you know the lipstick contains lead.


Please send this information to all your girlfriends, wives and female family members.
