BEWARE: Harmful Effects Of Lipsticks
Every woman will have her favourite lipstick shade in her cosmetic box. There is no doubt that it is important to highlight a woman’s lips. After all, they are referred to as the ‘rosy lips’.
But, there are many disadvantages of using lipsticks because of the materials that are used in making them.
Care should be taken to use lipsticks only on special occasions or make sure that you apply lipstick once a day only. The quality of the lipstick also matters. Always prefer quality products, avoid cheap and low grade ones. This will drastically solve most of the problems that are caused by the lipsticks.
There are a few things that you need to consider when it comes to lips care. Apart from the direct action on lips, the harmful chemicals in the lipsticks can be dangerous to your overall health as well. The constant contact with skin and accidental entry into the body system through licking are the common reasons for this.
The following are a few harmful effects of lipsticks that can occur if you use low quality products constantly.
Heavy
Metals
Studies
have
shown
that
lipsticks
have
concerning
levels
of
chromium,
cadmium
and
magnesium.
This
will
result
in
increasing
your
risk
to
dangerous
diseases
and
organ
damage.
High
levels
of
cadmium
can
be
stored
in
the
kidney
and
finally
result
in
renal
failure.
Applying
and
re-applying
lipsticks
many
times
during
the
day
can
lead
to
stomach
tumors.
These
are
some
of
the
harmful
effects
of
lipsticks.
Lead
It
has
been
revealed
that
most
of
the
lipsticks
have
a
dangerously
high
amount
of
lead.
Lead
is
a
neurotoxin
and
can
affect
the
nervous
system.
It
can
also
cause
brain
damage.
This
is
one
of
the
reasons
for
hormone
imbalance
and
infertility.
Even
if
it's
taken
in
small
quantities,
it
can
have
drastic
effects
on
the
body.
Petrochemicals
This
is
one
of
the
materials
used
in
making
lipsticks.
This
is
also
harmful
for
the
health.
These
are
chemicals
that
are
made
from
crude
oil
and
natural
gas.
Consumption
of
this
can
cause
endocrine
disruption,
which
interferes
with
growth,
reproduction,
development
and
intelligence.
This
is
one
of
the
harmful
effects
of
lipsticks.
Formaldehyde
and
Mineral
Oil
Formaldehyde
is
a
preservative,
which
is
also
known
as
human
carcinogen.
Wheezing,
coughing,
irritation
of
the
eyes
and
skin
are
other
effects
of
formaldehyde.
Mineral
oil
is
another
ingredient
which
is
used
in
lipstick
to
block
the
pores.
Many
of
the
harmful
effects
of
lipsticks
are
due
to
these
chemicals.
Parabens
and
Bismuth
oxy
chloride
These
are
two
other
ingredients
that
are
used
in
the
making
of
lipsticks.
The
harmful
effect
of
lipsticks
is
due
to
the
carcinogenic
property
of
these
two
ingredients.
The
parabens
act
as
preservatives
just
like
the
formaldehyde.
Though
this
is
used
in
preserving
the
lipstick,
it
is
very
harmful
for
the
body.
Never compromise on quality while buying lipsticks. Keep their use minimum. You can also try homemade lipsticks for safety reasons.
