Though the majority of chemicals in cosmetics pose very little or absolutely no threat, dozens have been associated with severe health conditions, including neurological harm and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics enter the body through inhalation, the skin, and ingestion, and pose similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.
Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer are found in food and several other commonly used items. Yet, no classification of consumer items is subject to less government inspection than cosmetics, including Lip Gloss (FLAB-0025). While many of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products most likely pose very little risk, being exposed to some has been linked to worrying health conditions, such as cancer.
