Patient's question:
My wife is also very fond of beauty, and she often makes up during pregnancy, always with lipstick. Can I apply makeup and wear lipstick while breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
It's best not to wear lipstick. Lipstick is a chemical substance, and it contains lead. When the lead content is high, it not only makes it easy for mothers to have lead poisoning symptoms but also, in severe cases, can cause symptoms of ADHD in babies, which is quite harmful. If lipstick is absorbed into the body, adults, with their better excretion abilities, can still excrete a portion of it, but babies cannot.
