Buy lipstick made from natural ingredients

Manganese, cadmium, aluminum are used in chemical lipsticks, which are harmful for health. Actually, when we apply lipstick and then eat or drink anything, the harmful chemicals of the lipstick go into our mouth. So, take special care while buying lipstick, choose a lipstick that is made from natural ingredients.

Buy branded lipsticks instead of cheap lipsticks

Cheap lipsticks contain high amounts of lead, due to which the risk of hypertension and heart diseases is very high. Many types of preservatives are used in them which are harmful for the body. Do not buy such cheap lipsticks to save money, rather always choose good and branded lipsticks.

Avoid buying lipstick online

Although now is the era of online shopping, but you should avoid using online shopping to buy lipstick. When you buy lipstick from online sites, often the shades are not known properly and if there is any problem with the shade of lipstick, then there is a problem in returning it and you are forced to keep the lipstick with you.

Please check the expiry date

When we buy lipstick, most of the time we forget to check its expiry date. We focus more on the shade of the lipstick, but everything has its own expiry date, after which it is not safe to use it. Usually the expiry date of lipstick is between 3 to 5 years. Therefore, while buying lipstick, do check the expiry date written on its packet. If the date has passed or there is very little time left for the lipstick to expire, then do not buy such lipstick at all.

Be sure to take a skin test

When you buy lipstick, before buying it, apply a tester lipstick on your skin to see how that shade looks on your skin tone. Try to choose a lipstick shade according to your skin tone and buy it according to your need.
