MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Though most chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics pose very little or absolutely no threat, some have been linked to severe medical problems, such as neurological harm and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals invade the body through the skin and inhalation, and lead to similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer can be found in water, food, and several other ordinary items.
