While many chemicals in cosmetic products pose slight or no threat, several have been associated to serious medical issues, including developmental delays and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals can enter a person's body through inhalation, ingestion, and the skin, and cause similar dangers as food chemicals, per this site.
Chemicals associated with cancer are found in food, water, and various other ordinary goods. Yet, no category of consumer goods is subject to less government direction than cosmetics and other personal care products, including Lip Gloss (FLAB-0010). Though most of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics and personal care products very likely present minimal risk, exposure to some has been associated with worrying health conditions, such as cancer.
