Though the majority of chemicals in cosmetics pose slight or no risk, several have been linked to severe medical issues, including developmental delays and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals enter your body through the skin and inhalation, and cause similar risks as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants linked to cancer can be found in food, water, and a lot of other everyday goods. However, no group of consumer goods is accountable to less government management than cosmetics, including Balmex Prevention Baby Powder.
