Although many chemicals in beauty products pose hardly any or zero danger, several are associated with severe health issues, such as cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays. Chemicals in cosmetics get into a person's body through inhalation, the skin, and ingestion, and cause similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.
