Although many chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics present little or no threat, some are linked with significant medical conditions, such as cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays.

While most of the chemicals in cosmetics likely present little risk, exposure to some is linked to critical health disorders, including cancer.
