P.S: Dearie was bored to tears today. Sorrie oh. =P


Recently read an article on Mind Your Body, so decided to share something with the girls.
It says:

Foundation
Most foundation contains talc, which is derived from asbetos, a matter found in construction material. Talc is know for clogging pores and causing acne, may also be linked to cancer, although studies are still inconclusive. Also, most standard make-up contains perfume and dyes. These artificial ingredients could cause allergic reactions. (My foundation has this. :( )

Lipstick
Did you know that several plants, insects and animals contribute to making a tick of lipstick? (I didnt know that!) Some of the ingredients in lipsticks that could cause allregic reactions are:

- Carmine: Derived from the shell of the female cochineal insect (beetle), it is used to produce a red colouring and may cause allergic reactions. (I found it as one of the ingredients in my blusher! Eeskkksss!!!)

- FD & C colourings: Derived from coal tar (petroleum), some colours are believed to be carcinogenic. They could increase the risk of getting cancer.

- Lanolin is a product from the oil glands of sheep. It can cause allergic reactions and can be harmful to ingest if it contains pesticide residue.

- Petrolatum: Derived from petroleum, this ingredient can cause allergic reactions and, ironically, can dry the lips, requiring the user to apply even more lipstick. (Found this too!)

Oh my... Seems that i have to change my foundation, blusher and lip balm soon!! All these are harming my skin!!! Arghhh!!! Have to change to a brand that uses natural ingredients. Hmm...
