MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

While most chemicals in beauty products and cosmetics pose hardly any or no threat, several are associated with considerable medical conditions, such as cancer, reproductive and neurological harm, and developmental delays. Chemicals in cosmetics invade a person's body through the skin and inhalation, and pose similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals associated with cancer are found in food, water, and several other ordinary products. However, no type of consumer products is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal products, including Eyeshadow Refill (Peach Sorbet Shade). Though many of the chemicals in cosmetics probably pose minimal risk, being exposed to a few has been associated with major health disorders, including cancer.
