MAKEUP PRODUCTS (NON-PERMANENT)

Though the majority of chemicals in beauty products pose slight or absolutely no threat, some have been linked with severe medical problems, such as developmental delays and cancer. Chemicals in cosmetics can enter the body through inhalation, ingestion, and the skin, and cause similar problems as food chemicals, per this site.

Contaminants and chemicals linked to cancer are found in food and a lot of other commonly used items. Still, no group of consumer items is subject to less government inspection than cosmetics, including LINGERIE DE PEAU COMPACT - MAT ALIVE - BUILDABLE COMPACT POWDER FOUNDATION - MATTE LONG-LASTING PERFECT BARE-SKIN EFFECT. While many of the contaminants and chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products likely pose very little risk, exposure to some is linked to worrying health issues, including cancer.
