There’s been lots of news lately about the dangers of toxins, particularly metals, found in lip products. Not only is this information discerning because of the absorption through the skin, but because the product is on your lips it’s ingested as well. Yikes.
According to researchers at the University of California-Berkeley School of Public Health, lead, cadmium, chromium, aluminum, and five other metals have been detected in common lip products.
The problem is ingesting these metals on a recurring basis can lead to stomach ulcers and even nervous system toxicity.
