SUN-RELATED PRODUCTS

Although most chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics pose limited or absolutely no risk, several have been associated to severe health problems, including cancer, and neurological harm. Chemicals in cosmetics can enter the body through the skin, inhalation, ingestion and internal use, and lead to the same dangers as food chemicals, per this site.

Still, no sector of consumer products is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including Kiehl's Ultra Facial Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 Sunscreen.
