While the majority of chemicals in beauty products pose very little or no threat, several are linked to severe medical issues, such as developmental delays and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics get into a person's body through ingestion, inhalation, and internal use, and lead to the same dangers as food chemicals, per this site.
Chemicals and contaminants linked to cancer are found in food, water, and many other commonly used products. Still, no classification of consumer products is accountable to less government direction than cosmetics, including Sheer Foundation. While most of the chemicals in cosmetics very likely pose little risk, exposure to a few is linked to substantial health problems, including cancer.
