lead in lipstick: 

CHRISTIAN DIOR

Y.S.L
ESTEE LAUDER
SHISEIDO
RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)
CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)
MARKET AMERICA-MOTNES LIPSTICK.
After doing a test on lipsticks,It was found that the Y.S.L. Lipstick contained the most amount of lead.
The FDA’s most recent analysis found the highest lead concentration — 7.19 parts per million in Maybelline’s Color Sensational Pink Petal lipstick.another one is L’Oreal’s Colour Riche Volcanic..

What does lead do?
lead is a potential carcinogen..causes plumbism..which has life-threatening effects..causes git cancer..stains gums..in pregnancy it accumulates in fetal brain and the baby is born with mental and neurological defects..
The higher the lead content,the greater is the chance of causing cancer.

A little piece of advice: don't eat lipsticks even if they look and smell tempting

Simple tests to find out:
-Watch out for those lipsticks which are supposed to stay longer.If your lipstick stays longer, it isprolly Because of the higher content of lead.

1. Swatch lipstick on 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. always do this with long wear lipsticks
