MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Although many chemicals in cosmetic products pose hardly any or zero risk, several are linked to substantial health conditions, such as developmental delays and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics invade a person's body through inhalation, ingestion, and the skin, and cause the same problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer can be found in water, food, and lots of other common goods. However, no category of consumer goods is susceptible to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including Lip Gloss (Round of Cosmos!). Though most of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products almost certainly pose very little risk, being exposed to some has been linked to substantial health conditions, including cancer.
