Lipstick is the most favorite cosmetic agent. Personally, I absolutely not imagine my daily image without a gentle pink and bright red lipstick on the lips. I use lipstick every day, I put it sometimes 3 times, and even more.
Lipstick makes a woman more confident. This part of the makeup is responsible for femininity, which eventually affects self-esteem. Lipstick protects the delicate skin of the lips from the aggressive environment and, depending on the texture, it can feed or moisturize lips. And this is not all the reasons why we, women, use lip lipstick.
But recently, opening another beautiful tube, after the second application I felt discomfort and bitterness in the mouth.
At first I did not believe that the womb of lipstick, while my friend working in the chemical industry did not open my eyes to things about which I had not thought before. But myself you can't take care of yourself - no one will take care!
Harmful cosmetics
According to the studies conducted in 2002, the average woman eats 24 mg of lipstick per day. If we assume that women paint lips about 55 years for their life for five days a week, then during this period, each woman eats 350 grams of lipstick.
Studies have shown that even such a small amount can be dangerous to health - it all depends on the composition of lipstick.
Experts of the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) experts (FDA) tested about 400 lipsticks, including such well-known brands as L'Oreal and Cover Girl. The results were struck by specialists: in some samples there were traces of lead. And since the last study, the amount of heavy metal found in lipsticks doubled.
Of course, the amount of lead, which can get into the body with a lipstick, is much less than that amount that daily enters it with food, water and air. But representatives of the National Medical Association compared lead in the lipstick with neurotoxin and internally, they say that any of its quantity is dangerous.
Lead accumulates in the body over time, and lipstick with lead is applied several times a day every day, which can lead to a significant level of negative impact.
