Pigmentation of Lips:
Do you know that your brightly pigmented lipsticks are loaded with harsh chemicals? Chemicals that do not just harm you, the wearer, but your loved ones as well as you embrace and kiss them.
Lipsticks are loaded with Parabens, Artificial Fragrances, Lead, Synthetic Dyes, and Petroleum. These chemicals cause a range of health problems from skin rashes and migraine to hormonal-disruption and life threatening diseases like breast cancer and skin cancer.
The marketing gimmick that shows those plump, moisturised lips after lipstick application can not be more misleading. These lipsticks cause chapping and drying of lips in reality, taking away the healthy look of your lips.
Those glossy reds that you like to flaunt so much actually cause your lips to lose their natural color and lead to pigmentation of lips, needless to say nobody likes dark lips.
