DEAR FRIENDS..PLEASE READ THIS.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO FRIENDS AS WELL
next time you go shopping for lipstick.... .
Just keep this mail in mind
This comes from someone who works in the breast cancer unit at Mt. Sinai Hospital , in Toronto .
From: Dr. Nahid Neman
Recently a lipstick brand called "Red Earth" decreased their prices from $67 to $9.90.
It contained lead.
Lead is a chemical which causes cancer.
The lipstick brands that contain lead are:
CHRISTIAN DIOR
LANCOME
CLINIQUE
Y.S.L
ESTEE LAUDER
SHISEIDO
RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)
CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)
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 colour changes to black, then you know the lipstick contains lead.
