Lead Warning in Lipsticks - OT

[Guest guest]

I don't usually send forwarded messages but....

Recently a brand called " Red Earth " decreased their prices from $67 to $9.90.

It contained lead. Lead is a chemical which causes cancer.

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.

This information is being circulated at Walter Army Medical Center

Dioxin Carcinogens causes cancer, especially breast cancer.
