[edit] General Discussion
No manufacturer has ever used carmine, or carminic acid in lipstick. It would be incredibly foolish to do so, since there exist legal, FDA-approved synthetic organic pigments that provide the same colors for 1/10th the cost. I'm getting rid of that sentence. I'm also going to bring this article back to a neutral POV.
I am not au fait with the way Wikipedia works, but may I suggest that someone removes the external link that claims to offer an understanding of how INCI works. The link is to a blog on which the owner basically claims that the longer the chemical name ,the more dangerous the chemical. This is, toxicologically, nonsense. There is no value in the informatoin contained on that link. 81.136.175.200 (talk) 22:12, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Controversy - General
Please try to keep POV out of this article. Scare tactics designed to panic gullible consumers into buying your products have no place here. Please do not add information that cannot be verified.
[edit] Controversy - Deodorant and anti-perspirant
This is a controversial topic due to the actions of a few manufacturers trying to sell their products at the expense of others. Anti-perspirants are technically drugs, and deodorants are just perfume. 99% of this has no place in this article. Unless someone objects, I'm going to delete the whole category
[edit] Not on DYK
Unusually for me I'm not going to place this on DYK. There is simply too much missing for it to be linked from the Main Page. violet/riga (t) 00:30, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
