The headline speaks for itself...
"Carcinogenic chemical benzene found in hundreds of US personal care products
Independent lab found the chemical in more than a quarter of items it tested – sometimes at levels considered ‘life threatening’"

This is what regulatory capture gets us.
Also notice the recalls are voluntary, which in this case probably means they won't happen - because the contamination affects half the products you'll find in the average CVS.
