MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Though many chemicals in cosmetic products present limited or absolutely no danger, some are linked with serious health problems, such as neurological harm and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics can enter a person's body through inhalation, ingestion, and the skin, and cause the same problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals associated with cancer are found in water, food, and many other common products. Still, no classification of consumer products is susceptible to less government management than cosmetics, including Lip Gloss (What a Catch!). While most of the chemicals and contaminants in cosmetics almost certainly pose little risk, exposure to a few is associated with critical health issues, such as cancer.
