That is one long list of ingredients. There are several ingredients listed that I would personally steer clear of, for example DMDM Hydantoin:

List of known side effects
DMDM hydantoin may cause different side effects, depending on the route of exposure. Since it is a formaldehyde releaser, it may have the same side effects as formaldehyde poisoning.Skin contact with DMDM hydantoin may result in irritation, itching, burning, scaling, eczema, reddening and blistering of the skin. Over time, allergic reactions to products with DMDM hydantoin may occur. It may also cause something as severe and lethal as skin cancer.When inhaled, DMDM hydantoin poisoning may cause irritation in the eyes, nose and throat. It may also start a cold or flu-like decongestion, minor to major respiratory problems including asthma. Inner ear problems, ear infections, headaches are also possible when poisoned by DMDM hydantoin inhalation. Furthermore, DMDM hydantoin has been linked to chest pain, chronic fatigue, depression and insomnia.Leukemia, or cancer of the blood cells, is associated with DMDM hydantoin poisoning through inhalation, dermal and ingestion routes of exposure. Formaldehyde, including formaldehyde-releasers, impair the immune system to the point that it cannot work properly to protect individuals.The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) allows formaldehyde releasers in skin care and other beauty products, at levels no higher than 0.2 percent. While formaldehyde does not bioaccumulate, prolonged or repeated exposure to this chemical may be a risk for everyone using products that contain it.
Body systems affected by DMDM hydantoin
DMDM hydantoin may affect the skin, the respiratory system, the eyes, nose, ears and throat, and the central nervous system.
Items that may contain DMDM hydantoin
There are over 2,000 products registered in the U.S. containing DMDM hydantoin. Some of these products include Curel, DDF Organic, Huggies, Bumble & Bumble, Olay, Desert Essence, Eucerin, Irish Spring, Ivory and Dove.
Summary
DMDM hydantoin is similar to imidazolindinyl urea. They both release formaldehyde which is a known carcinogen and is toxic to humans.
