Revealed: How lipstick and high heeled shoes affect your health.



Do you know some makeup that most women wear today are harmful to human health?. 
High heeled shoes, for instance,can cause Achilles Tendonitis( a common health condition that causes pain or inflammation along the back of the leg near the heel). Achilles tendon is the long thin band tissue that connects the calf muscles at the back of the lower leg to your heel bone,when you wear high heels, the feet are at an angle that pulls the muscles and joints out of alignment. The pains you feel are not limited to your feet. According to a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (Dos), "It's not 
unusual for people who spend lots of time in high heels to have a low back, neck and shoulder pain because the shoes disrupts the natural form of the body." 

Recent studies have also shown that most lipsticks contain lead( a neurotoxin that can be harmful even at small dose). Lead affects nervous system and harms the hormonal system,lipsticks can also cause drying,chapping of the lips and blockage of pores. A news report on CNN in 2014 says,"Lead isn't the only toxic metal you may be applying to your lips. In a recent study, University of California researchers tested eight lipsticks and 24 glosses and detected nine toxic heavy metals,including chromium,cadmium,manganese,aluminium and lead." Some other cosmetic products contain asbestos like talcum powder which can affect the menstrual cycle when in direct contact with organs. Some other cosmetic products contain chemical like barium sulphate, BHA,zinc oxide,etc.,which have the potential to harm the body and also cause organ failures like that of liver and kidney.
