How can a moisturizer have Hazmat (Hazardous materials)?

I was online shopping at Nordstrom and they informed me some items couldn't be sent to my country, Portugal, because they had Hazmat (Hazardous materials) in them. What does this mean?

First, how come it's ok for it to have hazmat there and not send it?

Second, how come a moisturizer and stuff has Hazardous materials?? Isn't that not ok?

I'm sorry, I searched on google and stuff but I just really know nothing of this matter, please help :)

Answer
Don't know about the first question seriously! It's stupid that they're selling these and then also 'warning' you not to buy those products - Not sending.huh? Poor Business!
Maybe something related to Government and high-taxes they pay....!

Secondly, Yes moisturizers do have hazardous materials, most common namely - Parabens (Dioxanes), alcohol and Ester(perfumes).

> Parabens can be found in shampoos, commercial moisturizers, shaving gels, cleansing gels, personal lubricants, topical pharmaceuticals and toothpaste, while they are also used as food additives. Acutally Parabens are chemicals used as preservatives, used mainly to keep their products up on the shelf for a long time.Parabens can mimic the hormone estrogen, which is known to play a role in the development of breast cancers.

> Alcohols (for eg. Ethanol) gives you very fresh, cool-cool effect if you've ever used it on ur skin and that's why it's used in cosmetics. But If you have any problems with acne, wrinkles, "dry skin, or oily skin"(what other skin type is left, duh!), itâs best to avoid skin care products that contain SD Alcohol, Alcohol, Ethanol, Ethyl Alcohol, Methanol, Isopropyl Alcohol, or Alcohol Denat as they cause very worse kind of inflammation. Cetyl Alcohol and Stearyl Alcohol are not of concern though.The bad types of alcohol dry out your skin, irritate it, and cause inflammation. Alcohol can also rob even oily skin of its natural oil, causing an increase of oil production.

> I hope you are aware with the effects of Perfume on skin :)
