Warning On Fake Make-Up Tainted By CYANIDE

Fake make-up loaded with toxic chemicals is flooding into Britain, police warned last night.

Counterfeit versions of leading brands such as MAC, Benefit and Urban Decay have been found with dangerous levels of lead, mercury and even cyanide. 

Criminal gangs are using squalid underground laboratories to make huge quantities of the bogus cosmetics, which are then sold through websites including eBay and Amazon.
