While most chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics present hardly any or zero risk, several have been linked to substantial medical problems, including cancer, and neurological harm. Chemicals in cosmetics gain entry to 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 can be found in food and several other common items. However, no kind of consumer items is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including C. O. Bigelow Mentha Vitamin Body Lotion. Though most of the chemicals in cosmetics in all likelihood present very little risk, being exposed to some has been linked to major health concerns, including cancer.
