Although most chemicals in cosmetic products present little or zero danger, several are linked with severe health problems, including cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays. Chemicals in cosmetics can enter the body through internal use, the skin, and inhalation, and lead to the same problems as food chemicals, per this site.
Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer can be found in water, food, and lots of other ordinary goods. Still, no group of consumer goods is susceptible to less government inspection than cosmetics and other personal products, including Balmex Multi-Purpose Healing Ointment. Though most of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics in all likelihood pose very little risk, being exposed to a few is linked to major health issues, including cancer.
