Thread: Lipstick Ladies Please read this

comes from someone
who works in the breast cancer unit at
Mt. Sinai Hospital, in Toronto.

From: Dr. Nahid Neman

If there is a female you care anything about,

share this with her. I did!!!!!

I am also sharing this with the males on my email list,
because they need to tell the females

THEY care about as well!

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)

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 colour 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 Reed Army Medical Center

Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer,

especially breast cancer.

Thanks for posting this, Suey. I'll make sure all my friends and family know, especially my sister as I don't know which brand she uses.

As far As I am aware this is true I got it from my daughter this afternoon.

If its true (cant see why it shouldnt be) then its well worth passing on.
Thank goodness I never was a lipstick person, let alone the top brands.
