MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Though most chemicals in beauty products present very little or absolutely no risk, some are associated with severe health problems, including cancer, and neurological harm. Chemicals in cosmetics gain entry to the body through inhalation, the skin, and ingestion, and lead to similar risks as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals associated with cancer are found in food, water, and many other common items. However, no group of consumer items is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics, including PETALS LIP BALM (ALL FLAVOURS/SHADES). Although many of the chemicals in cosmetics likely present minimal risk, exposure to a few is associated with major health conditions, such as cancer.
