MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Although most chemicals in beauty products pose slight or absolutely no risk, some have been linked with considerable medical problems, such as neurological harm and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics get into a person's body through inhalation, the skin, and ingestion, and pose similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Yet, no classification of consumer items is subject to less government inspection than cosmetics, including Camera Ready Full Coverage Foundation with UVA/UVB Protection SPF 15 (Fair F2). While most of the chemicals in cosmetics probably pose little risk, exposure to a few has been linked to worrying health conditions, including cancer.
