As detection levels of newer, more modern equipment gets lower and lower, it will lead to lead and other contaminants being found at trace levels in more and more products. The challenge is to figure out what this information means.
5 PPM is .00005%. That is not a lot of lead.
“Four hundred of the nation’s most popular lipsticks contained trace levels of lead when tested recently by the federal government”......
Now don’t you think that our “government workers” have something better to do than this? Seems there is some real need to address autisim, cancer and a host of other issues other than lipstick. How many people actually got cancer from lipstick?
