While most chemicals in cosmetics pose slight or zero threat, several are linked with significant health problems, including developmental delays and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics invade a person's body through internal use, the skin, and inhalation, and pose similar risks as food chemicals, per this site.
Contaminants and chemicals associated with cancer can be found in water, food, and various other commonly used products. Still, no classification of consumer products is susceptible to less government inspection than cosmetics, including Shift. Although many of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics and personal care products in all likelihood pose minimal risk, your exposure to a few has been associated with major health conditions, including cancer.
