Although most chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics pose minimal or no risk, several have been associated to severe medical issues, such as neurological harm and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals get into a person's body through the skin and inhalation, and lead to similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants linked to cancer can be found in food, water, and several other everyday items. Yet, no area of consumer items is subject to less government inspection than cosmetics, including Herpecin-L Stick. While many of the chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products in all likelihood present minimal risk, being exposed to some has been linked to major health issues, including cancer.
