Although many chemicals in beauty products present minimal or zero threat, several have been associated with significant medical conditions, including cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays. Chemicals in cosmetics get into your body through internal use, the skin, and inhalation, and cause the same dangers as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer can be found in food and many other common items. Still, no area of consumer items is susceptible to less government inspection than cosmetics, including Desitin Maximum Strength/ Desitin Original Diaper Rash Ointment. Though most of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics almost certainly present minimal risk, your exposure to a few is linked to serious health problems, such as cancer.
