Lipstick most important list you'll ever read:

You know the lipstick you put on that essential cosmetic pigment and wax that are consumed daily? That's right – eating. As in "absorb and take into your body." You know what? That lipstick is not very different from a crayon. Surprised? As to the facts of wax:

* Glamour magazine reported that women accidentally swallowed about four pounds of pen sores in life, although no studies support this assertion. However, each time a woman licks her lips, swallowed some of the wax, which is what binds the pigments and preservatives, which in turn contain lead.

* The pigments used may include iron oxides, dyes, pigments and additives. The aluminum pigments and other metals such as lead. That's right – lead. Lead is present in small amounts in almost all dyes and pigments used as an ingredient for cosmetics color.

* Chronic and constant exposure to lead can lead to serious neurological problems, particularly in children, such as reducing cognitive abilities, irritability, headache, lethargy, and hyperactivity and in some cases insomnia.

* A 2004 study of nearly 6,000 girls found that 63% ten Years Old and younger used lipstick.

* According to survey results released by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, a national coalition of nonprofit health and environmental organizations, over 60% of 33 brand lipsticks contain lead.

* Currently, the labels of lipstick do not and are not required to keep the list as an ingredient. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspects all pigments before they are sold as an ingredient for use in a cosmetic formulation, all formulations are different, so the amount of lead not can determine, therefore, not required to be listed as an ingredient. Note: The more pigment used in a formula higher the level of lead. In addition, third 33 brands of lipstick contain these amounts of lead that exceed the limit set by the FDA for appropriate levels in candy – 0.1 parts per million (ppm).

* No limit imposed by the FDA for lead levels in lipstick.

* Studies show that lead levels in lipstick range of 0.03 to 0.65 ppm. The researchers have yet to try the lipstick individuals, especially the lipsticks with high levels of lead, to see if these people have elevated lead levels in the blood.

* Most lipsticks contain between 3% and 17% of pigment. You can test any lipstick to see if presence of lead is high enough for concern.

* A lead test can be done by applying a stripe of lipstick in her hand and then rub. If the lipstick leaves a thin black line – which contains lead.

* The lipstick is made to take a mixture of colors and grind it in oil, as propylene glycol which is readily available and inexpensive to use. Propylene glycol has good solubility and is very synergistic with the rules for the production of pen sores. Propylene glycol has been found to cause cancer.

* Lipstick color mixtures are added to the wax, as candellila, beeswax and paraffin, like a colored pencil, which is mixed with color pigment hot paraffin before cooling. The wax both lipstick and crayons creates binding properties allowing the lipstick shape and color pencil to be formed into a solid.

* Lipstick ingredients are blended with some type of wetting and mixed with animal fat oils such as cholesterol and animal health products such as lanolin. shea butter and other oils to keep the lipstick formula wet and slippery. Substantial amounts of preservatives are used to maintain the growth of bacteria, and to keep shea butters, and the like, rancid in lipstick initially hot and sticky mixture.

* While hot, lipstick mixture is poured into metal molds to maintain its stiffness as it solidifies. A flame is passed over the mixture to create a smooth, glossy finish, and remove any imperfections. Metal or plastic tubes, crowned either by hand or machine, are used to hold the mixture after cooling ready for the market to be sold as the commonly used substance – LIPSTICK.

* Lipstick long-term requires more pigment, wax and other additives heavier.

* Manufacturers of aluminum added to give a matte lipstick look. Also add sunscreen and other protective devices to try to create what consumers think is a more "health friendly" product.

If you wonder where they came lipstick on, historians believe lipstick was probably invented by the Egyptians. In some of their hieroglyphics, eyes and mouth are detailed with radiant colors. To create the aesthetics ancient Egyptians used colored plant material with cinnabar, a vegetable dye, iodine and bromine carmine now known as the wings of beetles. Some of these ingredients are not considered safe by today's standards, but as a whole are much safer than what manufacturers use the formulas of lipstick base.
