Exposure & Human Limits The EPA RfD – is the oral reference dosage defined as: ‘…an estimate … of a daily exposure to the human population (including sensitive subgroups) that is likely to be without an appreciable risk of deleterious effects during a lifetime…expressed in units of milligrams per kilogram of bodyweight per day (mg/kg/day).’ WHO - The TDI is an estimate of the amount of a substance in food or drinking-water, expressed on a body weight basis (mg/kg or μg/kg of body weight), that can be ingested daily over a lifetime without appreciable health risk. © SPEX CertiPrep, Inc. 2011 Exposure Element Max ug in 0.10 g Concentration in lipstick Lipstick (ug/g) Calculated Rfd for EPA or WHO RfD 163-lb (74 kg) Adult Female (ug/kg/day) (ug/kg) Amount of lipstick needed to exceed RfD (g) As 0.88 0.0088 4 296 334.54 Ba 26494.60 264.9460 200 14800 0.56 Be 1.17 0.0117 2 148 126.28 Cd 0.04 0.0004 1 74 1684.66 Cr 31.45 0.3145 3 222 7.06 Hg 0.08 0.0008 0.1 7.4 87.49 Ni 23.36 0.2336 20 1480 63.35 Pb 2.39 0.0239 3.6 266.4 111.39 Sb 9.58 0.0958 0.4 29.6 3.09 Sr 109.24 1.0924 600 44400 406.43 Tl 0.21 0.0021 0.1 7.4 34.66 U 0.05 0.0005 3 222 4639.80 V 36.43 0.3643 9 666 18.28 © SPEX CertiPrep, Inc. 2011 Exposure Element Amount of tubes of lipstick consumed in one day to exceed RfD Ba Sb Tl Hg Pb As Cd 0.25 1 11 30 37 111 560 © SPEX CertiPrep, Inc. 2011 Conclusions Many elements found present in lipstick Toxic elements –Pb found up to 2 ppm –Very Low Hg, Cd found Very High amount of Al © SPEX CertiPrep, Inc. 2011 Conclusions The highest concentrations of elements in darker colors Light colors, glosses or balms have lowest concentrations The exposure rate to the toxic elements is very small Large amounts of lipstick would have to be consumed to reach RfD levels © SPEX CertiPrep, Inc. 2011 Acknowledgements Thanks to all the employees of SPEX CertiPrep & SamplePrep Huifang Lang, Chemist, SPEX CertiPrep Lazlo Ernyei, ICP Chemist, SPEX CertiPrep Bill Driscoll, ICP-MS Chemist, SPEX CertiPrep Vanaja Sivakumar, VP Inorganics, SPEX CertiPrep Method by Hepp, N.
