While many chemicals in beauty products pose minimal or no threat, several have been associated to considerable health conditions, such as neurological harm and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals get into the body through internal use, the skin, and inhalation, and cause similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants associated with cancer can be found in water, food, and many other ordinary items. However, no kind of consumer items is susceptible to less government management than cosmetics, including Balmex Multi-Purpose Healing Ointment. Although many of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics likely present very little risk, exposure to some is associated with substantial health concerns, such as cancer.
