myLot reputation of 76/100. A_Shabina (694) 4 years ago

Something to consider next time you go for shopping for Lipstick........
This comes from sumone who works for Breast cancer unit at
at M.T Sinat Hospital, Toronto
From: Dr. Nahid Neman
Recently, a lipstick brand called 'Red Earth"decreased their prices from $67 to 9.90$
It contains lead.
Lead is a chemoical which causes cancer & the lipstick brand which causes cancer are:
CHRISTIAN DOR
LANCOME
CLINIQUE
Y.S.L
SHISEIDO
RED EARTH
CHANNEL(LIP GLOSS)
MARKET AMERICA-MOTNESS LIPSTICK
AND MANY MORE....
The higher the lead content, the greater the chances of causing cancer.
After doing a test on lipstick, it was found that Y.S.L lipstick contains the most amt of lead.
Watch out for those lipstick, which are supposed to stay longer.
If ur Lipstick stays longer, it is because of higher content of Lead.
Here is the test you can do urself:1. Put some lipstick on ur hand
2. Use Gold ring to scratch on the Lipstick
3. If the lipsick colour changes to Black,Then U know the lipstick contains lead.
This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Center
Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer, Especially Breast cancer..
Please send this information to all your Girlfriends, Wives, friends & Female Family Menber..

Thank you for the information you gave us. Maybe when I buy the lipstick I prefer the local one. But there are lots of brand lipstick in the market no one almost notice the precaution of this lipstick. Okay i will try to pass this to my friends and cousins. Thank you.

this is not true.

it has been circulating on the internet since about 2003.

http://www.snopes.com/medical/toxins/lipstick.asp

check these sort of stories out on Snopes, they are usually not true. this one seems to be having a resurgence at the moment, I've had it in emails twice in the past few weeks.

it is not true.

please, people check the facts before fearmongering.

and also, while lead is known to cause health problems, cancer is not one of those health problems it can cause.

Hifriend, thank you for such very informative post. I admit that I am using lancolm, clinique, ad shisheido, but I am not aware until I read this, I'l try to check it first.
Again thank you for I now have from you the idea on how to buy an unleaded lipstick.


myLot reputation of 87/100. Galena (6230)   ranked 92 out of 961 in makeup  4 years ago

the original post contains false information.

I know the original poster meant no harm in it, just passing on information they had received and believed to be true.

if you look this up on Snopes.com, you will see that this is a hoax e-mail that has been doing the rounds for some years now.
