Lip Sticks with Lead in them 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.
