MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

While the majority of chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics present minimal or absolutely no risk, some have been linked with severe medical problems, such as cancer, and neurological harm. Cosmetic chemicals get into the body through ingestion, inhalation, and internal use, and pose similar dangers as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer are found in water, food, and many other commonly used items. However, no sector of consumer items is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics, including SEPHORA - GOMMAGE LEVRES MENTHE POIVREE/PEPPERMINT LIP SCRUB. While many of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics and personal care products likely pose minimal risk, being exposed to a few is linked to substantial health issues, such as cancer.
