on a serious note...

LIPSTICK INFORMATION:


Something to consider
Next time you go shopping for
Lipstick......


This comes from someone
Who works in the breast cancer unit at

Mt. Sinai Hospital , in Toronto .




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



LANCÔME



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 Centre



Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer,



Especially breast cancer
