MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Though most chemicals in cosmetic products present limited or absolutely no threat, some have been linked with serious health issues, such as cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays. Chemicals in cosmetics enter a person's body through inhalation, the skin, and ingestion, and lead to similar dangers as food chemicals, per this site.

Chemicals linked to cancer are found in food, water, and several other common items. However, no kind of consumer items is susceptible to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal products, including CoverGirl Professional Super Thick Lash Mascara. While many of the chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products in all likelihood present very little risk, being exposed to some is linked to critical health issues, such as cancer.
