Mensagem: |
He he, not everyone was ready to it, in Brazil it comes in June. Or maybe it is because people have searched into Google and got traumatized with the knowledge of "the massacre of St. Valentin´s day", in Chicago. While speaking of girlfriends (I know, I know, the word "namorados" is meant to both genders, but we men are the ones to send cards, buy the gifts and ask the girls out!), take care of your gilrfriend or wife. If you going to buy lipstick take heed of that piece of news:
http://channels.isp.netscape.com/whatsnew/recent.jsp?story=20120215-1352 When the FDA ran its first lipstick-lead test in 2007, it only tested 20 lipsticks. While it found lead in all of them, none was over 3.06 parts per million and all of them were below the safety limit of 5 parts per million recommended by the state of California. California has the most stringent law in the country on lead in consumer products.
Well, this might not happen in Brazil, we have demanding consumers! don´t we have?
