While the majority of chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics pose hardly any or no threat, several have been linked to severe health conditions, such as cancer, and neurological harm. Cosmetic chemicals gain entry to the body through the skin and inhalation, and lead to similar dangers as food chemicals, per this site.
Chemicals linked to cancer can be found in water, food, and many other common items. Still, no area of consumer items is accountable to less government direction than cosmetics, including Lip Gloss (Gum Drop). While most of the chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products likely pose minimal risk, being exposed to a few is linked to major health concerns, including cancer.
