Although most chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics present limited or zero danger, dozens are associated to serious health problems, including cancer, and neurological harm. Chemicals in cosmetics get into the body through inhalation, ingestion, and the skin, and lead to similar risks as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants associated with cancer can be found in food and several other common products. Still, no category of consumer products is susceptible to less government oversight than cosmetics, including Hair Spray. While many of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics probably present very little risk, being exposed to a few has been associated with significant health issues, including cancer.
