Lead found in some lipsticks
The consumer rights group Campaign For Safe Cosmetics found amounts of lead in one third of 33 lipsticks it tested. Lead was found in L'Oreal, Dior and CoverGirl lipsticks. Owner of local cosmetics store Let's Make Up, Tracey Lackey, spoke about the group's finding. She does not think there is much to worry about.
