Toxins in Skincare? No FDA warning?

I'm a product junky, and I love all the type of skincare, makeup, body products. Ok, so I came across this website called "skin deep" and it lists a thorough breakdown of products, the ingredients and the risk of cancer after long time use. For example, I looked up one product Estee Lauder Idealist, it stated that one ingredient which was rated in the product as a 16% factor to cause cancer. Thats alarming. I'm surprised that there are no safety labels, no fda approvals, not just for Estee Lauder but all the companies in the world that use chemicals in their products such as clean and clear, avon, johnson and johnson baby products...and so on.


Here are some of my concerns:


1. Should I be worried or this website is exaggerated?


2. dont the products need to have chemicals in them to perserve the product?


3. Do I now pretty much avoid all products so I wont be in contact with chemicals ?

I looked up several different brand names on the list and noticed a note that said:

I wouldn't worry too much. If you have questions about products ingredients, you might be better off going directly to the source. It's really your greatest chance of getting the best info.
