WARNING: Red Earth Lipstick are said to have cancerous elements specifically, the Lead. thats why it is not advisable to use this product anymore. please stop usig this brand. I used to buy Red Earth products before and the lipstick usually ranges from Php350 to Php750. But now they only sell their cosmetics for a markdown price. as in 70% off. it was unbelievable at first but after reading an article about it, they better trash it all off before it harm anybodys health.
*Some said that the mail is just a spam trying to ruin the reputation of some known brands but theres nothing wrong if we refrain using the products to protect ourselves. I believe red earth really has an issue about this, because they really did marked down with an unbelievable price on all their cosmetics and products few years back. As for the other prestigious brands mentioned such as Clinique, Christian Dior, Lancome, etc.. I dont think they are dangerous as many already tried and tested these products unlike that of Red Earth. And one more thing, here in Philippines, Red Earth Products are not being sold any more. SO I believe theres really something about this brand.
In my case, I personally use MAC Cosmetics. it is kinda expensive but its worth it. Safe and comfortable to wear. Not sticky. Feels lite and the shades and texture really blends on the skin well.

For your reference, here is the source, Original Message From The Email :
This is a Lipstick Test on "Lead" content. Lead is a Chemical that causes Cancer. Recently a Brand Name called, "Red Earth" decreased their prices of Lipstick from $67 to $9.99 because their products were tested positive with lead.
Please send this information to you friends or your girl friends.

(The higher the number, the higher the lead content which may be more cancerous.)
After this test, we found Y.S.L. lipstick is the most beautiful lipstick to wear, but because it has the highest lead content, it is not easy to remove.
I believe everyone loves to wear lipstick, so here is a test that you can do yourself:
Put some lipstick on your hand, Use a 24k-14k Gold ring to scratch on the lipstick. If the lipstick color changes to black it means this lipstick has Lead.
now its up to you to decide whether youll "buy" this mail or not. Just trying to inform those who are not aware yet. Hoping to save some people from this so-called cancer causing lipsticks.
