HOAX!!! - Dangerous Lipstick!
Just received this................[/align][/align][/align][/align]-----Original Message-----[/align]From: Mountier, Michelle[/align]Sent: Monday, January 15, 2007 10:10 AM[/align]Subject: Lipstick and breast cancer[/align][/align] Hi Ladies,[/align]I don't normally forward emails like this, but seeing as it could be[/align]potentially important, I thought it only right to share it with you all,[/align]don't know how true it is, but couldn't ignore it![/align]Michelle...........[/align][/align]This comes from someone who works in the breast cancer unit at Mt. Sinai[/align]Hospital , in Toronto .[/align][/align]From: Dr. Nahid Neman[/align][/align]If there is a female you care anything about, share this with her. I[/align]did!!!!! I am also sharing this with the males on my email list, because[/align]they need to tell the females THEY care about as well![/align][/align]Recently a lipstick brand called "Red Earth" decreased their prices from[/align]$67 to $9.90.[/align][/align]It contained lead. Lead is a chemical which causes cancer. The Brands[/align]that contain lead are:[/align][/align] 1. CHRISTIAN DIOR[/align] 2. LANCOME[/align] 3. CLINIQUE[/align] 4. Y.S.L[/align] 5. ESTEE LAUDER[/align] 6 SHISEIDO[/align] 7. RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)[/align] 8. CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)[/align] 9. MARKET AMERICA-MOTNES LIPSTICK.[/align][/align] The higher the lead content, the greater the chance of causing cancer.[/align]After doing a test on lipsticks, it was found that the Y.S.L. lipstick[/align]contained the most amount of lead.[/align][/align] Watch out for those lipsticks which are supposed to stay longer. If[/align]your lipstick stays longer, it is because of the higher content of lead.[/align]Here is the test you can do yourself:[/align][/align] 1. Put some lipstick on your hand.[/align] 2. Use a Gold ring to scratch on the lipstick.[/align] 3. If the lipstick color changes to black, then you know the lipstick[/align]contains lead.[/align][/align]This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center[/align]Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer, especially Breast cancer.[/align][/align][/align]
