While many chemicals in beauty products pose limited or no danger, some have been linked with considerable medical problems, such as developmental delays and cancer. Cosmetic chemicals gain entry to the body through ingestion, inhalation, and internal use, and pose the same problems as food chemicals, per this site.
Chemicals linked to cancer are found in food, water, and many other everyday goods. However, no classification of consumer goods is subject to less government oversight than cosmetics and other personal care products, including Sweet 16. While most of the chemicals in cosmetics probably present very little risk, your exposure to a few has been linked to worrying health conditions, including cancer.
