Eye make-up 'harmful to infants'
Kohl, a traditional eye make-up, could pose a severe health risk to infants as experts say it contains lead, a poisonous metal.
Most mothers use kohl to beautify their infants? eyes but have little or no knowledge that it usually consists of antimony sulphide or lead sulphide, said a team of researchers at the UAE University (UAEU). The researchers have suggested a ban on the import of substances containing lead, saying the substance has been resulting in the slow poisoning of infants.
