Though I myself don’t use lipsticks, I got this e-mail. I hope inshaAllah it is useful, by the grace and blessings of Allah (swt).
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.
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

**Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer,**especially breast cancer
