Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark · What They Put In Lip Gloss Is Banned From Food | Laura DiGirolamo, ESQ · 9 Jun 2026 podcast

And you just make lip products the way you know that the regulations allow you to make.

It's completely legal.

There's one company that is being extremely unreasonable on a different matter that has to do with trademark.

And I just decided, okay, well, I'm out.

I'm going to change the name.

I'm going to do something else because I just don't want to put my energy into legal battles.

And I just have a feeling that that's what's going to start happening.

Well, the synthetic dyes would definitely be... If you mix all of these things into one and you think, how many times a day do I apply it?

Let's look at some of these ingredients.

The plastics are just one of them.

That's just one part of it.

Titanium dioxide, it's another big one.

Petrolatum or mineral oil, huge.

And it's proven that if it's not a food grade petrolatum, which I don't know how you make food grade mineral oil, but it can happen where it's designed not to be ingested in the same way as a cosmetic grade, then I would put that on the list.

Petrolatum, mineral oil, perfume.

Don't know anybody who'd want to be putting perfume on their salad.

Why would you put it on your lips and eat it?

But it's in a lot of stuff.

So if you see perfume slash fragrance in your lip product, you're eating that off your lips.

And it's also on your mucosal membrane, which is you bypass your digestive system with something like perfume and you put it into this bloodstream.
