Lipstick contains lead?

I've just been emailed this, does anyone know if this is true or is it a hoax ?





Beware expensive lipsticks!


%26gt;


%26gt;Hi Ladies %26amp; Gentlemen, Plse try this with your partners lipstick or


%26gt;female friends , I have tried this and very surprised on result, had to





%26gt;throw out two lipsticks.


%26gt;


%26gt;From: Dr. Nahid Neman


%26gt;


%26gt;If there is a female you care anything about, share this with her. I


%26gt;Did! I am also sharing this with the males on my email list, because


%26gt;They need to tell the females THEY care about as well. Recently a


%26gt;lipstick brand called ';Red Earth'; decreased their prices From $67 to


%26gt;$9.90. It contained lead. Lead is a chemical which causes Cancer. The


%26gt;lipstick Brands that contain lead are:


%26gt;


%26gt;1. CHRISTIAN DIOR


%26gt;2. LANCOME


%26gt;3. CLINIQUE


%26gt;4. Y.S.L


%26gt;5. ESTEE LAUDER


%26gt;6 SHISEIDO


%26gt;7. RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)


%26gt;8. CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)


%26gt;9. MARKET AMERICA-MOTNES LIPSTICK.


%26gt;


%26gt;The higher the lead content, the greater the chance of causing cancer.


%26gt;After doing a testLipstick contains lead?
It is unreliable, at best. The format of the email is basically the same as phony emails telling you you've won some prize from someplace even though you never entered a contest.





So, lipstick may indeed contain lead, but this unsolicited email is probably not to be trusted.





Check the Wikipedia entry on lipstick... if there's ever a controversy about the subject, Wikipedia will probably let people know about it. Also, check the other site.





It's not impossible that some lipstick does, did, or will contain lead. After all, many things that we use on a daily basis probably cause cancer. But these things have not been proven, and in particular, this assertion about lipstick is unfounded.





Man, I never thought I would write so much about lipstick...





God bless.Lipstick contains lead?
It's true
This is false just a hoax. lead is toxic u wont find it in cosmetics, i work for a company run by the estee lauder group and believe me why would they risk a lucrative business empire to put lead in a product. first of all lead was used for lightening the skin centuries ago nd caused death do what benifit would the company gain by putting a toxic murderous chemical in a product.
Its not likely any major brand lipsticks contain a harm full amount of lead (Lead is a highly toxic substance). There are many ways in which humans are exposed to lead: through deteriorating paint(Until 1978, lead paint was commonly used on the interiors and exteriors of our homes), household dust, bare soil, air, drinking water, food, ceramics, home remedies, hair dyes and other cosmetics. Much of this lead is of microscopic size, invisible to the naked eye. Not much lead enters your body through your skin. For adults approximately 6% of lead that enters the stomach makes it into the blood stream. THERE IS NO CONCLUSIVE PROOF THAT LEAD CAUSES CANCER IN HUMANS.
thanks for the info! Dont think i will be buying any of those!
F**k it. Aren't we all gonna get cancer and die anyway? At least we can look good whilst we're alive.
Lead is illegal to use. SO NO! Dont believe everything you read.
I just did a search on lipstick containing lead and the first three entries at least had the e-mail you have just posted and information about how this is a hoax and how lead content in lipstick is closely monitered by the FDA to ensure that this would not happen. Don't panic. You have a hoax e-mail.
I didn't know that - thanks for telling me. Those brands are the kinds my daughter uses!
Only a very small range of lipsticks contain lead and even then only trace amounts. Lead doesn't cause cancer either, so you shouldn't worry.
don't c how it can cause cancer unless u consume the lead...i mean...maybe if u lick ur chops 2 much...lol..but thx for the heads up! i don't kno if its a hoax or not..this is the first time i'm hearing this...
I work for estee lauder, we were told that we arnt supposed to mention it if asked but yes they do contain small amounts of lead. They arnt harmful enough to cause cancer or anything else among that nature. Dont freak out and think back woman have been wearing lipstick for a LONG time and no one really had cancer based from a make up.

Brands of lipstick with lead?

I want to know if all lipsticks have lead ';I was just told so'; I just want to know if its true? And what brands dont can anyone help?Brands of lipstick with lead?

Hey Girl welcome Back,!!


did you ever try colored gloss lip sticks,


they come in natural color too


it comes in tubes like mascara


you use the brush to apply that's in the tube,,


i learned a trick from my daughter never blot your lips


once you apply it you stick your thumb in your mouth


and pull it out and it whips off the excesses on your thumb


and you Wipe it off with a tissue you


will never have it smeared on your teeth


I use my index finger, colors are softer and your lips do not feel so dry.. they have this for eye shadows too.so much easier to


use
most lipsticks have some form of lead, but NO brands have an amount that is dangerous to anyone.
Cover Girl does, Revlon doesn't.
i know some brands make it cow manure

I need to know which lipsticks are lead free and deodorants that are aluminum free,does anyone know?

Lead in lipsticks and aluminum in deodorants cause cancer, they say, and believe me I have had my share of that. Any information on this would help. Thanks.I need to know which lipsticks are lead free and deodorants that are aluminum free,does anyone know?

I understand that many lipsticks contain lead which could lead to cancer in people using them , is this right?

I recently had an e mail suggesting that all of the top branded lipsticks contained lead and this has been confirmed to be true by numerous universities, It sounded interesting so I thought people should know !I understand that many lipsticks contain lead which could lead to cancer in people using them , is this right?
A study by US consumer group Campaign For Safe Cosmetics, in October 2007 found 60 percent of lipsticks tested contained traceable amounts of lead. The levels of lead varied from 0.03 to 0.65 parts per million. One third of the lipsticks containing lead exceeded the 0.1ppm limit set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for lead in candy.


Lead poisoning (also known as saturnism, plumbism, or painter's colic) is a medical condition caused by increased levels of the metal lead in the blood. Lead may cause irreversible neurological damage as well as renal disease, cardiovascular effects, and reproductive toxicity.I understand that many lipsticks contain lead which could lead to cancer in people using them , is this right?
This is a hoax put about by nasty people who want us to believe that modern products cause cancer. See this FAQ page of Cancer Research UK:





http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/help/?page=鈥?/a>





Lead causes problems with haemoglobin metabolism not cancer and there are strict controls in the UK and other countries in its use in cosmetics and other products
lead doesnt cause cancer

    make up?MAKE-UP%26gt; do make up (like lipstick) has lead? is it the culprit why my skin becomes dull. I regularyly use?
    YES! Most red to pink lipsticks and glosses have lead. It is a cheap way to add red coloring and also a cheap way to have the lipsticks/glosses stay on longer.





    The lipsticks and glosses I use are from Bee-Luscious and they have no lead! All the colors they use are FDA approved.





    Also many foundations and powders have bismuth and talc. These clog your pores and can cause irritation and breakouts.Again Bee-Luscious is a company that does not cut corners to compromise health for profits. I love their make-up and skincare because of this and they use all natural ingredients in their make-up and skincare lines.

    Some red lipsticks have lead. It wasn't found in other makeup. They said it was safe, but I'd just wear other shades for a while.

    lol I just need to know whether to sue or not and what parts of my body I should be concerned aboutAre all of you Women who Kissed us men wearing lipstick with lead paint liable for damages?
    No, you need to take it up with the lip stick company. Only you know what parts you need to be concerned about.Are all of you Women who Kissed us men wearing lipstick with lead paint liable for damages?
    Lol.I would be very concerned about your big toe of yours.Forget suing the women,you can get a bigger settlement from the make-up company.
    lol I love this!

    Is what i hear about lipstick having lead in it true?

    i just got an e-mail saying that there are quantities of lead in a lot of brands of lipstick ,that u can verify this by puting some on your hand and rubbing it with a gold ring ,if it turns black it means it contains lead.of course we get lots of scare.u silly mails like this,im hoping that it is a sick joke realy.....Is what i hear about lipstick having lead in it true?
    No - lead is not used in cosmetics.





    Lead was used in cosmetics in ancient Rome, France in the 1800's, etc. but not any more.

    Im not sure...but i do know that theres fish sales in it. But if it wasnt safe to use then it wouldnt be sold so no need to worry lol
    Yes, and apparently the lipstick that says it stays on forever and last forever are the worst offenders.
    i dont think they would put lead in lipsticks .

    Did you know that lipstick, lip gloss, and such has a lot of lead in it?

    I am worried that my daughters are being poisined by the makeup industry. How about you?Did you know that lipstick, lip gloss, and such has a lot of lead in it?
    Yes, and in a lifetime an average woman can swallow up to 4lbs of lipstick. But women have worn lipstick foreeeeeeever! the amounts pass FDA regulation, so it isn't harmful to any MAJOR extent unless they are eating tubes of it at a time.


    Just read the ingrediants and find one with a non lead base. Better yet, find an all organic one with no lead!Did you know that lipstick, lip gloss, and such has a lot of lead in it?
    Even though I picked you as the best answer, I still am worried, the FDA continues to have thier problems regulating lead. Lead cannot naturally leave our bodies without doctors intervention. Report Abuse

    First of all, we all need to do more research on this topic. It's true that some makeup companies add some potentially toxic chemicals in their cosmetics. But guess what??? So does everyone else, pretty much.





    Now, I'm not saying this is a good thing (rather, this is really scary!) but I find it ironic that we're making a big deal about lipstick when we should really be concerned about SHAMPOO, CLEANSERS, SUNSCREEN LOTIONS, MOISTURIZERS, etc. Those have a lot of potential toxins inside that we have never paid attention to before.





    About the lead in lipstick--it's also been found that the lead in these lipsticks contain small amounts of lead, small enough not to make anyone sick. Besides, we're not EATING the tube of lipstick! The aspect of this situation is the fact that there IS lead, even if it's a small amount. But again, go back to the other products as well, most of which contain cancer-causing agents and harmful substances that are not as regulated by the FDA.





    I try to buy organic when I can, and try to limit the amount of chemicals that are going into my body. Check out a great website that I ALWAYS use to purchase my products--it's called Skin Deep Cosmetics Database.
    Also did you know that some lipstick brands are cancerous? Yah very true But i really dont think she will be poisoned just find something else like lip smackers chapstick or something..?
    It's not ';a lot'; of lead, its trace amounts. In October the FDA said they would research the products.
    Yes, i have read it from an e-mail. Lead makes the lipstick longer-lasting
    ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh鈥?br>







    NO

    Is a 72 year old Republican and a pit bull with lipstick really what we need right now to lead our country?

    Why is that that Obama, a man that consistently rallies for ';change'; in the government, would pick a man with 35 years in the senate as a face for ';change?';





    Hillary Clinton was right when she endorsed McCain over Obama, because all Obama has is a speech from 2002.





    Look for yourself...


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMVOT-IH8鈥?/a>





    Now that Obama has offered to help pay off Hillary's $20 Million in campaign debt, she's on his side. It sounds like Barak is very versed in the traditional way of doing politics in Illinois. I don't see any ';change'; there.





    The only hope for positive change lies with McCain.Is a 72 year old Republican and a pit bull with lipstick really what we need right now to lead our country?
    Yes, McCain has shown in his campaign that he is a lot better strategist, leader and politician than Obama. Let me explain.





    A few weeks ago Obama had the lead in the polls and was well on his way to the White House. All he had to do was choose the right VP and he failed. If Hilliary would have been his choice, it would have united the democratic party which was split because of the primaries. Instead of getting the person who got as many votes as he did in the primaries and uniting his own party and widened his lead he chose Biden. His campaign slogan was about change, he chose a VP that is a lifelong Washington insider and who's son is a lobbyist. This pretty much undermined his change campaign and left the door open to McCain. The choice shows that he was not able to unite his party and give them what they wanted. If he can't make desicions that are right for his own party, how is he ever going to work with republicans in congress to get his agenda passed. He can't.





    On the contrary a few weeks ago McCain was behind in the polls and didn't have the backing of the right wing of the republican party because of his moderate views. He chose a VP candidate that united his party and got the right wing to support him. He chose someone who was not a Washington insider and has been able to distance himself from the current administration and take away the mantra of change from Obama. He has defined his change by saying he is going to clean up Washington of politics as usual. This is the kind of change American's have wanted for years and his VP has a history of doing that in her state. His choice also has the chance to get some women voters who would have voted for Hilliary. I know that not many Hilliary supporters would vote for McCain just because he has a woman on his ticket but some will. I am sure that some women were going to vote for Hilliary just because she is a woman, just like some people will vote for Obama because he is black. Those women will vote for McCain because it is their chance to vote for a woman. This has energized McCain's campaign and closed the gaps in the polls.





    If you look at the desicions by the candidates you can tell that John McCain is a better leader and stratigegist that Barack Obama. Barack was unable to unite his party and define his position of change. McCain was able to unite his party and define change that American needs and wants. Is a 72 year old Republican and a pit bull with lipstick really what we need right now to lead our country?
    Yes they are,they have a plan and know the issues.They will stick to their beliefs and will do what is needed to help us out of this economic slowdown.


    The other party is prone to changing their mind on issues as their popularity drops.It is a bad trait to follow the consensus.Sometimes the right decision isn't always a popular one.
    Yes...I do. I trust McCain and Palin to do the right thing, especially concerning the war. Remember, Palin's son was just deployed to Iraq. Don't you think she wants her son to come back home soon? and alive?








    BrewerB: You're entry is just wrong...VERY FUNNY...but wrong. :)
    no we need a muslim who hasnt voted on most of the issue while he was in the senate. and of course a first lady that hates everything about the country
    Better than the alternative.
    Better than a closet terrorist with an extra from planet of the apes for a wife.
    it is better then the alternative
    NO WAY. He is a sell out and she is just a dancing bear who is only allowed to read off of prepared script.
    I'll take the 72 year old and the pitt bull.
    How in the world...do you get lipstick onto a pit-bull?
    Is an America hater that will bow down to our enemies?
    Much better than a socialist, wouldn't you say? I would!
    Yes
    hell no! they want to make all our choices for us! we dont need 4 more years of the last 8 years! what happened to freedom?





    VOTE OBAMA!
    Yes, but the 72 year old Republican we need is Reagan.

    Some women say's that Bee Lucious lipstick don't have lead on it. How sure are they that it don't have lead.

    Probably pretty sure, because most of them check the inbgredients label. And lead isn't listedSome women say's that Bee Lucious lipstick don't have lead on it. How sure are they that it don't have lead.
    organic lipsticks usually don't contain lead, i don't know about bee luscious - their customer service will know for sure - , but dr. hauschka, mineralfusion cosmetics, and many other organic brands don't have it in their extensive ingredient list. whole foods market stores carry several different brands of organic make-up./// i just checked www.beeroyalproducts.com, they offer a ';lead free'; lipstick, so there you go, enjoy !Some women say's that Bee Lucious lipstick don't have lead on it. How sure are they that it don't have lead.
    They read the label on the package. Or they go to their website and look it up.
    Well I went to the web-site, looked up the phone number and called them. It's easy most companies have a ';Contact us'; page. It usually list an email address and or phone number.

    There's nothing to worry about this issue coz they just put enough lead to lipstick, which won't harm the woman's health!





    I heard that thing way b4, and this was what i got from the net...





    Comments: False. This fear-mongering email is long on misinformation and short on verified facts. Laboratory tests have shown that some name-brand lipsticks sold in the U.S. do contain trace amounts of lead from the dyes used in their manufacture, but the lead content of these coloring agents is strictly controlled by the Food %26amp; Drug Administration to meet currently accepted safety standards and pose no serious health threat, according to a statement from the American Cancer Society.


    Moreover, the message is both inaccurate and misleading when it implies that cancer is the main health hazard posed by lead exposure. Though it is indeed listed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a probable human carcinogen, lead has other, more direct health effects -- including brain damage, nerve disorders and reproductive problems -- that are far more worrisome.


    Thus the information in this email is totally untrue and it should not be forwarded to others. Lipsticks manufactured by the companies named in the message do not contain dangerous levels of lead. Of course, it might be possible that illegally imported lipsticks or those procured in countries that do not stringently regulate the manufacture of cosmetics might contain dangerous substances. However, in most modern nations, lipsticks bought from reputable cosmetics companies are likely to be perfectly safe.


    Lead in lipstick causing cancer


    I have recently read that many lipsticks contain lead and this can cause cancer - is this true?








    This question has come up because an email circulates from time to time saying that lipsticks contain lead and therefore cause cancer. This isn't true. The email appears to be one of the many hoax emails claiming that a variety of everyday products can cause cancer. We've had deodorant, shampoo, washing up liquid and now lipstick. None of these claims are true and just spread alarm unnecessarily.





    This particular email says that a number of well known brands of lipstick contain lead. It claims that the longer your lipstick stays on, the more lead it contains. The email goes on to tell you how to test if the lipsticks you wear contain lead. It suggests that you put some lipstick on your hand scrape a gold ring across it and if the lipstick stripe turns black then it has lead in it. None of this is true.





    Will scratching lipstick with a gold ring show you how much lead is in it? Basically no! No such test could give you this information. This seems to be based on some ancient alchemy myth but has become rather garbled.





    The UK has strict laws about the production of cosmetic products. Manufacturers cannot sell a new product to the public before it has been safety tested. An organisation called The Cosmetic Toiletry and Perfumery Association (CTPA) provides information about regulation of cosmetics in the UK. The CTPA abides by regulations set out by the European Community. These list substances that are banned from cosmetics. Lead is banned from all cosmetics, apart from hair dyes. You are most likely to be exposed to lead if you work in the paint industry or make lead batteries. The Health and Safety Executive monitor workplace health in the UK. They say that lead cannot be absorbed through the skin. If you do have too much lead in your body, the likely results are headaches, sickness, tiredness and irritability. Long term lead exposure may cause problems with kidneys and nerves, not cancer.





    In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the lead content in food and cosmetics. They say that if there is any lead in lipstick, it is likely to be such a small amount that it will not be harmful. Another American organisation called the National Lead Information Centre provides information about lead hazards. We have searched their website and have not been able to find any references to lipstick posing a threat.
    SERIOUSLY?


    Lead is not in any kind of lipstick. Give me a freakin' break. Lead is a dangerous substance to ingest, and they aren't going to put it in lipstick.


    Geez.

    Is there lead in lipgloss? What is the safest brand to get lipstick from?

    Read from Reuters that the lipsticks we are using may contain lead regardless of brands and pricing.Is there lead in lipgloss? What is the safest brand to get lipstick from?
    You might want to try health-food stores that sell all organic lip products (like Whole Foods, etcetera). Organic certification is usually overseen by various certification bodies, and vegans and vegetarians usually want to check the ingredients - so those brands tend to be more forthcoming about the ingredients. I also like Body Shop products, since those have ingredient listings as well.





    Of course, we can't be 100% of any product.





    Maybe once the scare is over, and the cosmetics companies are more forthcoming about ingredients, you can trust most companies' products.Is there lead in lipgloss? What is the safest brand to get lipstick from?
    mac
    You can trust Bee Luscious Cosmetics, its a wonderful and reputable company, all of their lipsticks are lead free. Yahoo search under bee luscious cosmetics to research more.
    i use professional lip gloss that way their is no need to worry
    something made in america!

    Did you hear about lead being found in certain brands of lipstick?

    In today's newspaper, I read an article about lead being found in three brand names of lipstick. They are as follows:





    Cover Girl


    L'Oreal


    Dior








    I thought I would inform you, so you can throw your lipstick out if you use any of these brands. The lead is present in certain colors of these brands, but I'm getting rid of mine, just the same. Lead, as you well know, ingested, can cause serious health problems.Did you hear about lead being found in certain brands of lipstick?
    Thanks Shortst. Just as an FYI, the lip colors at Aularale Cosmetics (aularale.com/7002), which is what I use, do not contain lead. As a matter of fact, their entire line is for people w/sensitive skin. I like their products a lot!!Did you hear about lead being found in certain brands of lipstick?
    Yes i heard it but i think they, mankind should stop having thing to do with mankind, are you with me?
    no i didn't know that.


    But did you know that they use fish gills in lipstick to?


    i am lucky i use lipgloss
    wow. I did not know that. Thanks for advising all of us!
    Yes, I also read that awhile back. I use Lancome and Clinique or Estee Lauder (simply because I get the samples when I purchase something), so I guess I am safe until they find out about other brands.





    I sure do appreciate you sharing this with all of us. More and more products seem to be dangerous. It is amazing and frightening.
    Yea isnt it awful I was reading about it today on the internet whats next hairspray bath soap laundry detergent this is really getting out of hand. I dont feel secure about anything that I eat drink or use any more.
    Yes just today I heard. It caused great concern we need to let our dear Indian maiden know as she earlier today ask a question regarding storing it in the fridge. I like L'Oreal and Dior is quite expensive. So I was shocked. That lead will harm what brain cells I have left. Oh Dear!
    omg! i kno,....i was like OMG! and dior and covergirl ( never heard of the other one) are expensive!
    Bee-Luscious does NOT have lead. All of their colors (pigments) are FDA approved. NO amount of lead is safe no matter what they say! Lead builds in your system over time and can cause serious damage.





    Not only do most cosmetics contain lead they also contain bismuth another potentially dangerous heavy metal.





    I have been using the make-up from Bee-Luscious because it doesn't have any of this stuff in their make-up.





    All of this really disturbs me. Here is the link to tell you about bismuth:

    EDIT: FYI. Lead is in the pigments (coloring) used in many cosmetics and bismuth is used to make many foundations and powders have that shiny look.
    good thing i don't wear lipstick
    yeah it was on the yahoo welcome screen too this morning. thank god i dont wear lipstick.
    I just read it also. I wonder how many other name brands carry lead? Geeze! Thanks for bringing it up.
    wow..thanks for telling me..now i can take off this stupid scuba thing...


    what about the fingernail polish ???
    yeah, i heard. why is it we are still having china make things for us? everyday there is a new recall.
    The lady at Bee-Luscious (the brand I use most) assured me they don't have lead in their make-up so I feel a little better. What pi**es me off is I had been using some of those brands throughout the years not knowing I was being poisoned! Some companies are just evil!!!!





    Here is the link to the article:





    http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20071011/hl_n鈥?/a>
    I wonder what colors they are. Do you know where I can find out about the colors? Maybe I can contact the companies? That's, if they will tell me.


    Thanks for letting me know, Shortstuff.
    yes i heard. they have it on the front page of yahoo too
    is it in all the lipsticks and gloss are just the lipsticks..i use cover girl gloss
    I heard about a recall. I'll be throwing mine out. This is disturbing because what is next? I really do not like how the government is handling and of course the corporations aren't going to handle it well. I don't know what is going on.

    Im talking about today's yahoo story about lipstick with lead. I want to know does lipgloss have lead in it too? i have ramell and maybaline lipgloss.Does lipstick with lead includes lipgloss?
    I'm not quite sure, but I know for a fact that using a gold ring to test the lipstick/lipgloss for lead will not work. (see article below)Does lipstick with lead includes lipgloss?
    this is exactly why i dont wear make up, nothing is safe anymore..
    I think they said that the lead was in the tint. So, I would imagine that if the lipstick has a color, it has a small amount of lead.





    Since women have been using lipstick since the 1920's and have suffered no ill effects, I would believe only in the trace amounts not harming women.





    If the woman is pregnant, however, just to be cautious maybe she can dispense with colored lipstick.
    It is possible because the lead is found in the coloring. So it could have. Read some of the other post on lead and lipstick. There are some companies listed that don't have lead in their make-up.
    I honestly have no idea.
    Oh My Gosh !!! I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. Here's a star for you.
    no lipgloss has no lead what so ever
    Don't know, but at this point, I wouldn't trust it as far as I could throw it--right into the trash. Better to toss it than to poison yourself-from what I understand, lead poisoning does awful things to you.
    I read an article just today about that. This is what it said:





    ';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. 鈥?This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.';





    So I would say do the same test with lip gloss. Normally the two go hand in hand.
    yes, it sure has. i have a lipgloss factory.one of the ingredients for making lipgloss is lead. it is detrimental to our whole body. nice question you asked!
    Umm actually person, I tried the thing, I put My lancome lipstick on my wrist and scrathced it for like 20 seconds and my whole wrist was black.It actaully works.

    Any suggestions for a bold, bright, long-lasting red lead-free lipstick?

    I'm not looking for a nice, going-out look - I want something bold and eccentric, maybe like Regina Spektor or Gwen Stefani.Any suggestions for a bold, bright, long-lasting red lead-free lipstick?
    Matte colors last longest, but are awfully flat in my opinion. First put on a lip primer, i like macs erase lip balm. Then, apply your lip color. I like dior addict high shine lipstick in flamenco red, its shiny. Then apply a color sealent, i know sephora has them this will lock your colour in place. good luck, hope i helped :)Any suggestions for a bold, bright, long-lasting red lead-free lipstick?
    i think bourjois sweet kiss is a gorgeous shade of red, and its really long-lasting and bright. i think its just what u r looking for. :)
    MAC- russian red, or ruby woo. there's many reds though, so check out the website or your mac counter and look at all the selections! different hues will look better with your skin tone. lady danger is pretty gwen stefani though, i'd say.


    NARS dolce vita is also gorgeous! it should work on most skin tones, but jungle red and heat wave are something else!


    rimmel lasting finish works pretty well too- in alarm and red hot, maybe balistic.


    other brands you might want to check out are make up for ever, cargo, l'oreal, maybelline and REVLON- the super lustrous ones are gorgeous and there's a huge selection!





    have fun!

    Exactly what 20 brands of lipstick were found to have lead in them?

    I keep reading about L'Oreal, Cover Girl and Dior..but no other brands are listed although they claim 20 brands total had lead in them.Exactly what 20 brands of lipstick were found to have lead in them?
    It actually isn't enough to cause a problem, but many people would prefer that no lead be used whatsoever. That's actually less lead than you'd find in average soil--after all, lead occurs naturally. Even though it wouldn't cause problems, you never can tell with lead, so it's probably best to just remove the offending item (sounds like it's a pigment in this case) from production altogether and find another one.Exactly what 20 brands of lipstick were found to have lead in them?
    They said out of all of the lipsticks that have lead in them, NONE of them have a serious amount. It's not dangerous and it is not anything to worry about.
    they found lead in the red shades in the following brands : dior (4 different shades), avon (1), burt's bees 1, avon 1, body shop 3, clinique 5, estee lauder 3, revlon 4, wet n'wild 3, mac 1, maybelline 1, l'oreal 3, tarte 1, dior 4, cg 6, l'oreal 5. the highest were l'oreal colour riche classic wine, and true red; cg incredifull lip color ';maximum red';, dior addict ';positive red';.
    Its usually the bright red pigments that use lead. So, brands aside, if its a really bright red color then you can pretty much surmise that there's lead in it.





    Trust me, you have absolutely nothing to worry about, the lead content isn't going to hurt you at all, you'll be just fine, just use your lipstick as usual and keep it away from young children.





    I know they're trying to scare you on the news with the ';FATAL LIPSTICK'; headlines, but thats all for ratings, trust me on this one, you'll be fine.





    The only thing that should be worried about is letting small kids have it, because lead poisoning causes brain damage in young children. Once the brain is fully developed, however, it is much less susceptible to lead damage, if you ask any doctor they'll tell you its nothing to worry about.





    Heck, I paint with more dangerous things than this lipstick and I'm fine. Just be glad there isn't cadmium or arsenic in it.
    woe! 20 brands!!! I thought there were only 5....


    I'm not answering the question, am i.


    Please e-mail me the best answer.


    I want to know.
    I was concerned as well for my clients and their well being, I double checked and was reassured that the company that manufactures for Bee Luscious their lipsticks are FDA approved and their products are lead free.
    even if it has lead, its not an amount that would be harmful, please check: http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/l/lipstick.htm
    I'm concerned too. When I saw the story break on the news the other day I was floored!! America can spend BILLIONS of dollars overseas but still, repeatedly fail to protect those of us here @ home....it's so sad.





    Anyway, I want to let you know that it's actually more than 20 with levels of lead in it.





    Here is a link to a detailed article that you should find informative. It includes a full list of tested lipsticks.

    Does anyone know how lead could be in lipstick if it weren't an ingredient?

    The spokesman said that it is a ';naturally occuring ingredient'; and I was wondering if anyone knew how that might be.





    Thanks!Does anyone know how lead could be in lipstick if it weren't an ingredient?
    lead finds its way in a lot of minerals, ores, etc.





    These lead tests they are conducting are taking it down to super fine resolution. Totally unmeasurable without million-dollar mass-spectometers or electron microscopes.





    I'm sure they could find cocaine or bird poop in lipstick if they looked hard enough.





    It could also be a cross contamination where machines used to process the lipstick are shedding tiny particles of lead (not solid lead, but metal alloys that may contain lead).





    Or, they could be full of shyt and are adding lead on purpose to help make brighter colors. The latter is probably the case.Does anyone know how lead could be in lipstick if it weren't an ingredient?
    It's in the pigmentation! Naturally occurring my A**!!! They just want you to think you are safe well that's bull. Any amount of lead is harmful because it slowly builds in your body over time.





    I contacted Bee-Luscious because that's the brand I use and they told me they use FDA approved pigments in their make-up so nothing has lead. I would suggest either calling all of the brands you use and just ask them. Just listen carefully because most of them either won't know or they will try and talk around it. Or just switch brands. Like I said Bee-Luscious don't have any lead and although it is more expensive I think it's worth it. Just my opinion.





    That is what I like about Bee-Luscious they answered all my question straight forward with no double talk.

    How to test for lead in lipstick in the lab?

    Hi I need help with this. What (analytical chemistry) laboratory method could I use to test for lead in lipstick? Thanks!How to test for lead in lipstick in the lab?
    This is not a mental health question.

    How do I find out if the contents of an email are true of false. Example: lipstick contains lead?

    I have received emails containing amber alerts etc, that I have forwarded on, only to recieve one back from people telling me they checked and it was false. How can I check these myself?How do I find out if the contents of an email are true of false. Example: lipstick contains lead?
    This question has come up because an email circulates from time to time saying that lipsticks contain lead and therefore cause cancer. This isn't true. The email appears to be one of the many hoax emails claiming that a variety of everyday products can cause cancer. We've had deodorant, shampoo, washing up liquid and now lipstick. None of these claims are true and just spread alarm unnecessarily.





    This particular email says that a number of well known brands of lipstick contain lead. It claims that the longer your lipstick stays on, the more lead it contains. The email goes on to tell you how to test if the lipsticks you wear contain lead. It suggests that you put some lipstick on your hand scrape a gold ring across it and if the lipstick stripe turns black then it has lead in it. None of this is true.





    Will scratching lipstick with a gold ring show you how much lead is in it? Basically no! No such test could give you this information. This seems to be based on some ancient alchemy myth but has become rather garbled.





    The UK has strict laws about the production of cosmetic products. Manufacturers cannot sell a new product to the public before it has been safety tested. An organisation called The Cosmetic Toiletry and Perfumery Association (CTPA) provides information about regulation of cosmetics in the UK. The CTPA abides by regulations set out by the European Community. These list substances that are banned from cosmetics. Lead is banned from all cosmetics, apart from hair dyes. You are most likely to be exposed to lead if you work in the paint industry or make lead batteries. The Health and Safety Executive monitor workplace health in the UK. They say that lead cannot be absorbed through the skin. If you do have too much lead in your body, the likely results are headaches, sickness, tiredness and irritability. Long term lead exposure may cause problems with kidneys and nerves, not cancer.





    In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the lead content in food and cosmetics. They say that if there is any lead in lipstick, it is likely to be such a small amount that it will not be harmful. Another American organisation called the National Lead Information Centre provides information about lead hazards. We have searched their website and have not been able to find any references to lipstick posing a threat.





    Several websites investigate chain emails. Although we cannot vouch for the content of these, the information we've looked at seems reasonable. They are a good place to start when investigating the claims made in chain emails. They are








    Break the chain.com


    Truth or fiction.com


    The links will take you to the sites' pages on lead in lipstick. Another site, called Urban legends and Folklore tells you how to spot a hoax email so you may find it useful in the future.





    We don't recommend passing on any chain emails. All those that we've ever seen about cancer are false. You'll just be spreading alarm and cluttering up someone else's inbox. If a chain email has an attachment, you certainly shouldn't forward it. It could be a virus.How do I find out if the contents of an email are true of false. Example: lipstick contains lead?

    No she's probably using foundation except when you do that you have to put a little bit of foundation like with the tip of your finger and then use vaseline or some sort of lip balm or lip gloss over it to make it shiny and not flake cause its moist and it also can kind of pump your lips and make them look better.


    Try that cause I've never really seen nude colored lipstick..
    MAC. makeup are amazing for different shades of lipstick, i'd recommed putting a little bit of vaseline over the top so it lasts longer and doesnt look so dry though. I'd try there, got my favourite barbie pink lipstick from the MAC counter in selfridges, gonna get an orange one soon :)

    You don't mention the age of your son. I assume he is very young and did not realise the damage he was doing. Cleaning carpets is specialised, I would recommend you consult your local carpet cleaner who has dealt with many cases of contaminants on carpets.

    Things You'll Need:


    Nail Polish Remover


    Goof Off


    Carpet Stain Removers


    Peroxide


    Carpet Brush


    Baking Soda


    Elbow Greese





    Scrub the Nail Polish stain with peroxide. Peroxide will remove many fresh stains and is a popular method for removing blood.





    Next try baking soda. Baking soda is also great for getting oily stains out.





    There are some products on the market that claim to remove nail polish stains. Try these with caution. Try using them in a corner or closet to make sure they will not remove the dye from your carpet before using on the stain.





    all else fails try a Acetone Free Nail Polish Remover. Again test in a closet first before putting directly on the stain.





    Carpet Cleaners and Nail Polish Removers can also remove the dye from some carpets.Use Caution when using Chemicals
    There is a product called Stain devils, or used to be....I assume they still exist. They make all different ones for different stains and are fab. I have used them on nail polish before and it came up a treat. You used to be able to get them in hardware stores or fabric shops


    http://www.acdo.co.uk/stainclinic/step1.鈥?/a>





    Star drops are also great for lipstick but probably not Nail polish.
    go to hardware store and ask for goof-off,works wonders
    Nail varnish remover and white spirit.Test a Small part of carpet with remover and to make sure it does not melt it. The white spirit will be wash out lipstick.

    What colour lipstick do I wear with a black, cream and gold top?

    basic colors are a shade of red. either darker or lighter. so you pick!





    i'd say a lighter red close to pink but not exactly pink.

    Red matte/satin/cream lipstick?

    i'm looking for a red non-shiny lipstick. i have naturally red lips but my upper %26amp; lower lip tones are different. i dont like the conventional ones that look too serious/old/mature on me. im 16. i dont like shiny ones so i thought of buying matte but sis says it doesn't look good. she said try cream or satin instead. what is that exactly?how does it seem like?cream sounds good,my impression its matte+creamy.oh yeah and im thinking cheaper brands like revlon/maybelline. tx.Red matte/satin/cream lipstick?

    Are we allowed to carry makeup on flights? No liquid bottles but only compact cream foundations and lipstick.?

    You can carry your makeup (including liquids) in your carryon. ALL liquids in your carryon must fit in a 1quart zip top bag and must be 3.4 ounces/100ml or less. You can read more about what is and is not allowed at http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/p鈥?/a>





    Lip stick that's in a tube is not considered a liquid and does not need to be in the bag. If the compact is solid you should be ok too, however, you may want to put it in the zip top bag just to be safe.Are we allowed to carry makeup on flights? No liquid bottles but only compact cream foundations and lipstick.?
    just to be safe I would put it in a ziplock bag... I went to FL with a small liquid lip gloss tube and I got pulled outta line and they wanted me to go through again if I wanted to keep it.... it took long the first time so I said ';toss it'; and medicine like Dayquil needs to be a bag too... trust me :oS

    Yes, you can. However you will be required to seperate them into a plastic bag. check this site for updated security information: http://www.tsa.gov or this site:

    Good luck with the trip!
    at some airports, they let u carry liquid if it fits inside a certain sized ziploc bag (i saw it on a poster at an airport) im sure compact cream foundations and lipstick would fit in the ziploc bag but it really depends on the airport





    oh yeah, and i think u can bring it if it's not in a carry-on bag





    GOOD LUCK! =]
    anything other than gels,hard perfumes
    I think that should be fine. As long as its not liquidy.

    Did you know that shavin cream workes to put lipstick off of coaches?

    I was at a sleep over, and we were doing makeovers, and in the end, there was lines of lipstick all over the coach. We looked in mrs. clean and it was in there. i actually works. ( now if you were wantin gto try it to see if it will work, then make sure to do it on a old coach cause if you use waterproof lipstick then it would be harder to put the stain off of the coach. lol.Did you know that shavin cream workes to put lipstick off of coaches?

    What does it mean when a lipstick has a pearl finish as opposed to a cream finish?

    Ex: Cream finish


    http://www.maybelline.com/Product/Lip/LipColor/superstay-lipcolor.htmWhat does it mean when a lipstick has a pearl finish as opposed to a cream finish?
    The pearl finish lipsticks will have a hint of shimmer in them and they can be more moisturizing, but they won't last long because of the oils and the glossiness of them. A cream lipstick has better chance of lasting longer, especially when you apply a small amount of pressed powder on your lips before applying lipstick.What does it mean when a lipstick has a pearl finish as opposed to a cream finish?
    Normally pearl finish would have a bit of frost, whereas cream would be a thicker, more opaque color. But it doesn't come out with these lipsticks. They're all very dry.

    Combination skin with cream blush, also best lipstick brand NARS?

    I have combination skin and although powder blush is suppose to be the best for my skin, I find that cream blush looks better. It makes my skin look more natural and smooth, while powder highlights all the flaws. What are your opinion with powder and cream blush. I'm also trying to look for a bronzer this weekend, and it doesn't seem like MAC has it for cream. I'm also looking for a good moist nude/hint of gold or peach lip stick, would you recommend NARS lipsticks?Combination skin with cream blush, also best lipstick brand NARS?
    If cream blush looks better on you, wear cream blush. I have combination skin, and I wear cream blush and powder blush, sometimes together. Bottom line, wear what you like and what looks good. I can't help much with cream bronzer, except to say that Lancome and Estee Lauder are the best high-end makeup brands I've ever used, and I've tried just about everything. The nude/peach/gold lipstick you're looking for is Nars Orgasm. It was made to complement the blush of the same name. It's actually a gloss, but I think it's exactly what you're looking for.Combination skin with cream blush, also best lipstick brand NARS?
    NARS = amazing. I personally cant stand MAC. it does a number on my skin. For foundations and powders i go to perscriptives they match you perfect for your skin. bronzer and blush i go to chanel. i have a powder/cream mix for both of them and i have combo skin too.

    After you have scraped off any residue, be careful not to ';push'; it into the carpeting, take fingernail polish remover on a white rag and dab at it. Dont rub. Rinse the area with plain water when you are done. Dont put cleaning chemicals on it, this will only set the stain and even a professional can not get red out once it is set. If some red tint remains, you could go to the store and get a tannin remover. Tannin is the substance in red that makes it permanent.How do you get lipstick out of your carpet?

    Remove carpet stains





    You can lift out many stains from your carpet with vinegar:


    Rub light carpet stains with a mixture of 2 tablespoons salt dissolved in 1/2 cup white vinegar. Let the solution dry, then vacuum.








    For larger or darker stains, add 2 tablespoons borax to the mixture and use in the same way.








    For tough, ground-in dirt and other stains, make a paste of 1 tablespoon vinegar with 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and rub it into the stain using a dry cloth. Let it set for two days, then vacuum.








    To make spray-on spot and stain remover, fill a spray bottle with 5 parts water and 1 part vinegar. Fill a second spray bottle with 1 part nonsudsy ammonia and 5 parts water. Saturate a stain with the vinegar solution. Let it settle for a few minutes, then blot thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth. Then spray and blot using the ammonia solution. Repeat until the stain is gone








    Good Luck !
    Use Goo Gone. Ive used it several times on my carpet for various things and lip gloss was one of them.

    The most vital element in this situation is time - treat ASAP with hot water and any household cleaning products (laundry detergent, soap, etc). If you have Oxi Clean, that generally tends to work the best.





    Scrub the area (with some good elbow grease!!) with a small brush, the hot water, and the cleaning product you have.





    Hope this helps!

    Some carpet stains can be removed with a paste of 2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar and 1/4 cup salt or baking soda. Rub into the carpet stain and let dry. Vacuum up the residue the next day. (Always test on an out-of-sight part of the carpet first).

    There's a great stain remover that I swear by. It's called ';Kiss Off';. It comes in a container that looks like a giant lipgloss and I bought mine at Michael's craft store (apparently it works well on removing oil paint from fabric also). I have yet to find a stain that it hasn't gotten out.
    Run to the store and get some club soda. if you're quick, it should help
    Pretreat it with Spray And Wash Dual Action stain remover, before cleaning it. You could also try SHOUT Wipes, but they might leave a hint of the stain.

    Can you use eyeshadow mousse/cream as lipstick/gloss?

    I bought Dream Mousse eyeshadow by maybelline in heavenly pink and it made my eyes tear up and I got alleriges. So i don't waste it can I use it as lipstick if I also use a lipgloss?Can you use eyeshadow mousse/cream as lipstick/gloss?
    well if u got allergies from using it you probably shouldnt use it again...


    and its pretty gross if you put eyeshadow on your lipsCan you use eyeshadow mousse/cream as lipstick/gloss?
    yea sure why not! I used to do that .If it looks nice... pull it off!
    I used to use eyeliner, so maybe. Try it out.
    Yeah but I imagine it would taste HORRIBLE.
    My sister and I always mix the mousse eyeshadows with lip gloss. Squirt a little clear lip gloss on to your hand, and then add the mousse. Use ur finger to mix them together, and apply it to your lips and voila! It looks really nice too!
    If your allergic to it on your eyes you will be allergic on your lips plus EWWW........ Noooo. never, do you know how bad that would taste.
    Thats not a bad idea. Put it on your lips and top with some gloss. It might work you should try it out.
    I'm pretty sure you can but....you can look at the back/bottom and it will tell you if you can use it anywere besides your eyes.





    Hope I Helped!!





    .~*.*~.!.!.!.!.Happy Holidays.!.!.!.!.~*.*~.
    I don't know about Maybelline... in M.A.C cosmetics you can get gel and use it as anything.
    if your allergic on your eyes, you're probably going to be allergic to it on your lips. plus, i wouldn't do that anyway, kind of gross.
    Why not? Go ahead. I have the eyestuff and it basically looks like lipgloss :P
    NOO! EWW! i dont think so! that is kind of gross...
    you can but i definitely wouldn't
    If it doesn't cause a reaction on your lips, use it.


    But I would highly recommend you use lipstick and gloss for your lips because they're specifically designed for that purpose, as are eye shadows designed for eyelids. Since you've had a reaction to this product already, try using some Blistex or Vaseline to act as a protective layer for your lips, and then apply the mousse eye shadow.
    Well you can, but I would not reccomend it. It would taste really icky if you got any in your mouth.
    It might make your lips chapped...and look dry and yucky,but I guess you can if you really want too. If you think you have allergies to it then I wouldnt try it though.
    yea, why not. mix it w/ some petroleum jelly
    you CAN but, I wouldn't.
    I wouldn't recommend using this on your lips, especially if you had such a negative reaction using the product as the directions advised.





    If you are allergic to the product, you are going to be allergic regardless of wear you apply it.





    If you purchased from a drugstore, you should be able to return the product and receive a full cash refund. I have done this many time with products that I am allergic to or simple don't like the color. And they refund the money with no problem.





    I would advise you seek medical attention so you can find out exactly what you are allergic to.





    Good Luck

    Attention Muslims please! To use cream,lotion,lipstick is it permissible to apply over skin?

    As we know these all products are contain animal fat(extract) and alcohol. I think most of our Muslims use them without any fear. Men can stop himself to use it but it's very difficult to prevent women to use these cosmetic products because they always wants to look beautiful.





    I fill very anxious to this matter. If Islam allow us then i don't see any problem. What Islamic scholar(Mufti,Shaikh,Aleem) say regarding this matter. I desperately seeking guidance. Help me please.Attention Muslims please! To use cream,lotion,lipstick is it permissible to apply over skin?
    Certified halal mark on a product will solve your concernAttention Muslims please! To use cream,lotion,lipstick is it permissible to apply over skin?
    Muslims are banned from drinking alcohol as they can get drunk and won't concentrate while praying, as you know we pray all day.


    But to apply alcohol on the skin have proved scientifically to be dangerous as it can cause skin cancer, but there's no problem religion wise, that's up to my knowledge.
    I'm actually a vegetarian. You can check sites to see if they carry any animal products in them. There are certain ingredients you can look for. Don't worry very few products are made with animal as an ingredient.


    Here is an extensive list of products not test on or have any animal products in them: http://www.idausa.org/facts/crueltyfree.鈥?/a>
    you are not supposed to drink alcohol and eat pork,never heard you cant apply it on your body that's all i can tell you,i think it's different..!
    Zak bhai,





    There is halal stuff and haram stuff, your ladies use the halal ones so they look beautiful to you.





    So don't worry





    check for halal mark then buy





    PEACE
    To make yourself easier, just consume things which have certified halal logo.
    Does it really matter? Just don't eat your lipstick...

    Cream lipstick????

    Ok so I love to wear lipstick, not lip gloss. I am trying to find a good creamy lipstick. Any suggestions? And if the lipstick moisturizes lips that would be awesome!!!!!





    THanks!!!!!!!Cream lipstick????
    Anything of Annabelle brand usually works nicely.





    Try applying a Chapstick base first, so that the lipstick lasts longer and you get the moisture that you clearly want.





    XOXO,


    LaurieCream lipstick????
    Revlon lipsticks are nice. They have some great shades.
    Drugstore brands - Rimmel and Maybelline have nice creamy (look for moisture in the line name) lipsticks. Department Store - Clinique has a brand new creamy formula that I am loving.

    Do cosmetic companies all dump their orange lipsticks with the free gifts they give out with purchases.?

    Who actually wears orange or salmon pink lipstick? I give them to my niece to play with and she is only 6.Do cosmetic companies all dump their orange lipsticks with the free gifts they give out with purchases.?
    I think they do.





    Sometimes, I mix it with a too red lip color to change the color to a more coral color, or I just give it away.





    Sometimes, though some companys give decent lipstick colors, (I like Lancome or Clinique)Do cosmetic companies all dump their orange lipsticks with the free gifts they give out with purchases.?
    i wouldnt wear it, i am very pale and it wouldnt suit me. it would probably suit black skin tones nicely though

    1. Here are a bunch of easy ideas :


    put rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball and rub that on your face. It grabs oil and leaves your face shine-free -- it works every time!';





    ';Clean %26amp; Clear oil-blotting sheets don't clog pores, and after a couple of blots your skin goes from shiny to a healthy, smooth glow. Plus, a 50-sheet pack can fit anywhere, even the tiniest of purses!';





    ';Make a mask from eggs and sugar. It's great for everyone!';





    Rub a drier sheet over your face right after getting out of the shower!





    ';Once a week, mix the juice from an orange and some egg yolk and put it on my face for about 10 minutes. It sounds disgusting, but it totally works!';





    ';Wear face moisturizer with a sheer powder on top of that. It keeps your skin shine-free for up to 10 hours!';





    grab a toilet seat cover (unused!) from a public bathroom and use it like an oil-absorbing sheet. It works and it's free!';





    ';Caress Body Soap dries up my skin a bit, and leaves face not shiny or oily at all!';








    mix baking soda and water and leave it on my skin for 10 minutes, then rinse it and put witch hazel on.





    light, gentle moisturizer every night. Keeping your skin hydrated (and clean) keeps your pores from producing oil.';

    5. Here are 3 kinds of products that won't mess up in water:


    LINERS


    The notion of a silky lip or eyeliner sounds like a smear waiting to happen--but not so with these blendable and budge-proof formulas.


    TIP: Start with clean, hydrated skin and let it dry for at least 30 seconds before blinking or lip smacking, so the color ';sets.';


    USE: Makeup for ever aqua lip waterproof lipliner pencil 16$





    Sephora keep kohl! waterproof liner 8$





    TEAM: CREAMS


    The same way mascara dries to a longwearing finish, cream-based makeup does the same--particularly waterproof formulas.


    TIP: Apply in layers, letting it dry before applying the next layer.





    USE: Tarte Lock and roll eye shadow duo set 28$





    Bourjois pump up the volume waterproof mascara 14$





    GELS


    These lightweight formulas cause quite a splash by ';sinking'; into the skin, leaving an imprint of natural color that keeps on glowing.


    TIP: A little goes a long way, so apply sparingly. If you do go overboard, tone it down with a clear or tinted translucent powder over it, after it dries.





    USE: Smashbox o-glow 26$

    Can I get Estee Lauder's Free Summer Gift in Macy's even if I purchase lipsticks?

    According to Macy's home page, if I purchase $32.50 or more, I get Free Summer Gift. And according to written sentences, should I purchase only foundation and skincare? I can interpret that I can not get Free Summer Gift even if I buy $32.50 or more of lipsticks. Am I right?Can I get Estee Lauder's Free Summer Gift in Macy's even if I purchase lipsticks?
    You are right. I have used Estee Lauder for years and have always taken advantage of their free gift offer. As long as your purchase adds up to the required amount ( it can be just lipsticks, perfume, whatever as long as it is their brand) you are able to get the free gift. Believe me!Can I get Estee Lauder's Free Summer Gift in Macy's even if I purchase lipsticks?
    actually no :( when a company states that to receive the gift you have to either purchase a 'foundation or skincare' they mean only those products....but if you know someone that works at the counter..you could politely ask them if you could purchase 32.50 worth of lipsticks..they might give you the gift...hmm..another way is you could go up to the counter and ask them for the makeup remover which is only 15.50 at EL..and then ask them if you could purchase a lipstick to make up the difference to receive the gift :)...just be very polite!! thats all we ask!!!! hope this helps

    I don't like the model but I would still buy the lipstick as long as it's not tested on animals.Doesn't this pic meant to advertise lipstick make you not want it even if it was free!!!?
    I cant see anything wrong with it, I was expecting something horrifying from your description!! the color is a little dark but thats the whole purpose, the nails and the lips are dark shades, but her lips are no different from most all the fashion models out there who think having full fishlips are gorgeous, I mean look at Priscilla Presleys lips, talk about somebody who has totally screwed up her natural beauty. She looks HORRIBLE with those lips, sorry dont like to be mean and say such things but man when I saw her on that show and watched an interview she gave I was mortified by her look, she doesnt look real anymore and oh dear what about that poor crazy cat woman? now I ask you, does she look like any puss n boots you've ever seen? not me, shes the most god ugly looking thing Ive ever seen, she looks like no cat too me. what is wrong with people that they cant leave themselfs alone? I dont know, but I cant see much wrong with the lips in the Clarin ad, she looks better than PP and better than many others............... color to dark for me but nice texture to it. Id buy the lipstick, maybe not that color but Id buy it....
    You're right. I mean, everyone thinks if you have an attractice woman alongside a product, that it makes it look better. Almost like 'you'll be beautiful with this product'. Plus, it's such a weird shade and the lips are pushed out in a weird way. It would look better with a soft smile and a light pink shade or something. And she has ';vertical lines'; which supposedly aren't good these days. You never know with media.
    The lipstick looks very cakey, and the model's facial expression reminds me of an inflatable love doll.
    Definetly, it looks like someone punched her in the mouth and then tried to cover it up with tacky lipstick lol.
    LMAO yes! She looks scary!





    Her expression is like ';I'm going to eat your face.'; Lol somebody feed her!
    yeah, that color is a bit red........and the facial expression is just unflattering......
    It looks disgusting!
    I suppose so the color is cool but she looks like a catfish.
    I DO NOT THINK IT WAS THAT BAD OF A PICTURE BUT I DONT THINK IT WAS THE BEST EITHER
    Haha yeah
    ya thats not to cute.. its not her color and it makes her look like a blow up doll haha

  • When you get your make-up done free at the mall, do they use the same lipsticks,etc on everyone?

    I see all of the make-up products out in the open. It seems like the lipsticks are applied directly on every person's lips, with no sanitation in between. Is this true? If so, why would anyone do this?When you get your make-up done free at the mall, do they use the same lipsticks,etc on everyone?
    They're supossed to take a popcicle stick, and scrape off the desired abount and then from the stick apply onto skin with brushes. After they're done they're supossed to clean their brushes with alcohol and allow to dry.When you get your make-up done free at the mall, do they use the same lipsticks,etc on everyone?
    I've had my makeup done and they used a little stick to remove some of the lipstick then they used a disposable lip brush to apply it.


    i really don't think the health and safety board would allow them to use the same thing on everybody. i don't know about you but i sure as hell don't want someones mouth herpes LOL
    the lipsticks are, but you aren't supposed to put them directly on the lips, you are supposed to use the little brushes they have. but most people don't anyways
    Well I don't know for sure but if they ARE put directly on the people's lips they definetly clean them. But Im pretty sure that they have lip brushes that they use a new one for everyone.
    they usually use a lip brush then throw it away.but they sometimes dip in alcohol to sanitize it.
    They either use brushes or have a palette for each individual, w/all the colors you want to try.
    At places like that they use lip brushes on the lip stick to apply it to ur lips same goes with the shadows.
    They have lip brushes that they use and throw away for each person.
    No they use different ones for each new person
    mostly yes

    Do cosmetic companies all dump their orange lipsticks with the free gifts they give out with purchases.?

    One time I used orange lipstick. It looked nice. But of course, that was on Halloween.Do cosmetic companies all dump their orange lipsticks with the free gifts they give out with purchases.?
    If it is the right color, I wear them. Remember....they look orange or salmon in the tube but when applied can look totally different. I have a Lancome Melonique that I normally would never choose. But when I tried it on, it is the perfect peachy/coral color for me.
    I can wear the color orange or salmon and it is one of my favorites! In cosmetics though, it always looks Day Glow. It's awful, I agree. I have noticed a lot of ';free'; bad color samples. It has to be the hardest color group for them to sell - you're right.
    I got a Clinique GWP once and it came with this nasty brownish red color. It was so ugly.

    However it might vary from place to place.. Ask your make-up MUA. The saleswoman here said it's 6, and cosmopolitan said if you bring 6 in you get a free eyeshadow, lipglass or lipstick.





    Good luck hun :)FREE MAC LIPSTICK Question ?
    * Yes you will get a free lipstick (and i think NOW you can choose which colour too, they've broaden their horizon.)





    take 6 MAC containers, you can take finished lipstick, foundation, blush, lipgloss/balm.. ANY of the MAC containers...and they'll give u a lipstick. not bad of a trade.
    They do, and its not just empty eye shadows, its anything of theirs that's empty. I believe you need 5 then you get two free lipsticks.
    Its 6 empty containers, not 5. and theyre probably not supposed to be depotted, just used up.
    I am a MAC make-up artist and u need 6 empties. U can have 6 empty containers of any of our products to get 1 free lipstick.
    yea i think you need 5 empty eyeshadow or lip stick tubes and you get a free mac lipstick
    i think so

    YES! You are able to trade in any 6 MAC containers (such as an empty powder compact) for a MAC lipstick, eyeshadow or lipgloss! This is called the BACK-TO-MAC program. Print out the form below, send back 6 containers, and MAC will send you your free item! A great way to recycle and receive a $14 MAC item free! (The ';Beauty Expert'; that answered first is wrong, hardly an expert!)

  • Lanolin-free lipstick?

    My favorite makeup (Almay) no longer has actual lipstick - the old-fashioned tube kind - available in stores. Their long-wearing lipstick is sticky and my husband can't stand it, either. I'm allergic to lanolin and menthol plus I have a problem with chapped lips. Since I can't use Chap Stick, Blistex or any other chapped lips remedy, I use lipstick instead. The problem: only two tubes of lipstick in the entire makeup displays at Walmart and CVS had ingredients listed. They were both by Maybelline. I've purchased three different colors of their lipstick since I found it last week. They all had orange tones to them and were a lot brighter than their color dot claims. The lipstick was also cakey. Really gross looking and cheap. So, I've been searching online for a different brand, hoping that Loreal or other chain-store lipstick might do. (Loreal's site has lanolin as the first ingredient of all their tube lipsticks.) I can't find any information about ingredients in any other lipstick. I was hoping someone here might know of a lanolin-free, menthol-free lipstick that can be purchased at Walmart or CVS. And, if not, what I can purchase online, preferably at a discount.Lanolin-free lipstick?
    My wife has that allergy. She uses Revlon ';Beyond Natural Liptint';, whatever that is. Good luck.

    Gluten-free lipstick/lipgloss/makeup...?

    so, i was recently diagnosed with coeliac's desease a few weeks. my dietision tells me to look at labels to see if makeup is gluten free and I've been trying to look but it is all so confusing and i don't know what ingrediants come from wheat and barley that would be in makeup, because i've heard that they are different from the ones that i was told to stay away from in food. Can someone help me find gluten free makeup?Gluten-free lipstick/lipgloss/makeup...?

    I use Afterglow Cosmetics (afterglowcosmetics.com) - it's COMPLETELY GLUTEN FREE. They have a gluten free statement here:

    They are also listed as the recommended makeup brand on ww.celiac.com. Report Abuse

    My aunt was deathly allergic to wheat and corn and she used Mojave Magic makeup. I have some and it is of a very high quality... I love it! Maybe try to look that up and see if you like it!
    Go to your search bar and type in ';gluten free makeup';. Alot of site are listed with the information that you are looking for. Nutrogena makes a gluten free makeup. Search away and Good Luck!
