Although many chemicals in cosmetics present very little or absolutely no danger, several dozen have been linked to serious medical problems, including neurological harm and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics invade the body through the skin, inhalation, ingestion and internal use, and cause the same dangers as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants linked to cancer are found in water, food, and several other ordinary goods. However, no group of consumer goods is subject to less government management than cosmetics, including Balmex Prevention Baby Powder. Though many of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics most likely present very little risk, being exposed to a few has been linked to substantial health disorders, such as cancer.
