HOWEVER - I DO care about companies lying to consumers about how much lead is in cosmetics because that takes the opportunity to make an informed decision away from them.<br /><br />There are a number of companies lying to their customers and saying "don't use XYZ brand - the FDA found they have lead" - use OURS...it doesn't. Only problem...theirs has never been tested and in most cases, uses the exact same pigments and colorants as the brands that have lead. Then there are the brands that do not use FDA-approved colorants...they are illegal but fly under the radar. Are these beet and other fruit and veggie colored cosmetics any safer? NO...I did a little research this morning (like...an hour...hardly the five years Stacy Malkin of the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics has devoted to his issue). Here is the information I found about LEAD in BEET colorants: http://sueapitolikes.com/2012/beet-powder-contains-lead/<br /><br />SueSuehttp://sueapitolikes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-14312901446881979072012-02-13T11:02:42.475+01:002012-02-13T11:02:42.475+01:00Colin - and thank you for continuing to put things...Colin - and thank you for continuing to put things into their proper perspective! <br /><br />Mary - I absolutely agree. People/organizations that willfully misinform and scaremonger are just bad news all around.<br /><br />Rikke - Prøv at klikke link til Colins 'how to kill yourself with lipstick' indlæg. Han fortæller i detaljer hvor meget der skulle til for at gør en ende på det hele med læbestift.. noget med over 33.000 stk - og lidt igen. (så skal man altså virkelig gå til den!)

Fra jeg var 15 år til jeg var omkring 30 har jeg brugt kilovis af læbestift, som jeg nok overvejende har fortæret på den ene eller anden måde. Hvor meget "skidt" mon jeg har oplagret i min krop af den grund?<br /><br />Og lipgloss med glimmer er stadig en af mine laster... Bare ikke hver dage ;-)<br /><br />Kh RikkeRikkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037190345959533625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-20988118108115967592012-02-13T00:43:46.873+01:002012-02-13T00:43:46.873+01:00I get so, so sick of posts that say "Is there...I get so, so sick of posts that say "Is there ________ in your _______?!"<br /><br />I believe in being extra cautionary when it comes to chemicals and everything, but I hate it when people try to spread the message with fear mongering. It does not encourage people to be rational or fully understand the issue.maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01687851211798266323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-51468695153922159702012-02-12T23:21:02.657+01:002012-02-12T23:21:02.657+01:00Thanks for giving this issue some coverage in your...Thanks for giving this issue some coverage in your blog Lise.
