While the majority of chemicals in cosmetics present very little or absolutely no risk, dozens have been linked with serious health problems, including developmental delays and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics gain entry to your body through internal use, the skin, and inhalation, and pose similar dangers as food chemicals, per this site.
Chemicals associated with cancer are found in food, water, and a lot of other ordinary goods. However, no classification of consumer goods is subject to less government inspection than cosmetics and other personal care products, including LIP BALM.
