While the majority of chemicals in cosmetic products pose little or no risk, several dozen have been linked with severe health conditions, including cancer, and neurological harm. Chemicals in cosmetics invade the body through the skin, inhalation, ingestion and internal use, and lead to similar risks as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals associated with cancer are found in food, water, and various other everyday items. But, no sector of consumer items is accountable to less government management than cosmetics and other personal care products, including UV SHIELD SPF40.
