Though the majority of chemicals in cosmetics present little or absolutely no threat, dozens are associated with severe health problems, including cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays. Chemicals in cosmetics enter the body through ingestion, inhalation, and internal use, and cause the same problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants associated with cancer are found in food, water, and several other everyday products. But, no sector of consumer products is accountable to less government inspection than cosmetics and other personal products, including UV SHIELD SPF40. While most of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics probably pose minimal risk, exposure to some has been associated with substantial health disorders, including cancer.
