Got this in my inbox today from a friend. Thought I'd share it with my ETJ family.
This is TRUE.. I recieved this from a friend who works at a local Baltimore Cancer Ctr. and she got it from the onocologist she works for, and other physicians
LIPSTICK INFORMATION:
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, SHISEIDORED, EARTH (Lip Gloss), CHANEL(Lip Conditioner),
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 on longer.
If your lipstick stays longer, it is because of the higher content of lead.
Here is the simple 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.
Please send this information to all your girlfriends, wives, mothers,grandmothers, daughters, sisters,aunts, nieces, or other female family members.
This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Centre.Dioxin Carcinogens causes cancer, especially breast cancer..
So please, don't use the brands above,
or those that contain lead!
Now, pass this on to all your friends and family.....
