Minimum and maximum concentrations of lead were ۳.۲g/g and ۱۲۱۹.۴g/g, respectively. Totally, average lead concentrations of plant-base samples were lower than that of mineral-base ones. Conclusion: According to the results, high levels of lead in available Surmas in Kerman city requires some cultural measures for changing peoples’ attitudes toward using this cosmetics as eyeliner or revision in their formulation in order to remove lead or decrease it to the standard limit.
