If you are pregnant .. Its highly recommended not to put on red lipstick as it contains huge amounts of lead in its formulation that finds its way through tha placenta to the fetus brain!! According to the FDA the highest amount of lead was found in the brands maybelline, dior, cover girl and l'oreal
Just thought of sharing maybe it can be useful or help someone

Omg isnt the whole purpose of the FDA to ensure that there is NO LEAD and only safety tested or known safe items find thier way to our beauty and hygiene products!!! I don't want lead on my face at all. As for pregnancy I'm sure I never wore makeup, polish or brushed let alone colored my hair- I just laid on the sofa groaning from awfulness.

Where did you find this info?

Due to curiosity, I googled this. The article I found states that the amount of lead is too low to trigger the law and the FDA says it is not a health concern unless you apply lipstick multiple multiple times a day. Please check your facts and cite sources next time. http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2012-02-14/business/35443991_1_red-lipsticks-campaign-for-safe-cosmetics-fda

When ur pregnant if u know that anything having any toxic inhredients in it even if its a small amount that might slightly harm ur baby u would just avoid it without arguing .. To hell with all lipsticks not only red !!
