MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

While many chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics pose slight or no threat, several have been linked to substantial medical issues, such as neurological harm and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals can enter the body through inhalation, the skin, and ingestion, and cause the same risks as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals and contaminants linked to cancer are found in water, food, and a lot of other commonly used items. Still, no group of consumer items is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including NARS Light Reflecting Setting Powder Pressed.
