MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Although the majority of chemicals in cosmetic products pose very little or absolutely no threat, some are associated with considerable health problems, including developmental delays and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals invade the body through the skin, inhalation, ingestion and internal use, and cause the same problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals linked to cancer are found in water, food, and a lot of other ordinary products. However, no group of consumer products is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including Sheer Finish Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Sunscreen (Warm Beige). Though many of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics almost certainly present very little risk, subjection to a few has been linked to serious health issues, including cancer.
