While many chemicals in cosmetic products present very little or absolutely no risk, dozens have been linked with substantial medical conditions, such as developmental delays and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics can enter the body through internal use, the skin, and inhalation, and lead to similar risks as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals associated with cancer are found in food, water, and a lot of other everyday goods. Yet, no sector of consumer goods is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including Cortizone 10 plus Creme.
