Potential allergen, possible formation of free glutamates resembling MSG, may cause reactions in sensitive individuals

CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide)

Potential inhalation toxicity when airborne as fine particles, possible carcinogenic risk if inhaled in industrial settings, limited oral toxicity at typical use levels

Diamond Powder

Potential physical harm if ingested (abrasive), no nutritional value, risk of contamination, not safe for consumption

Steareth-21

Potential skin irritation or sensitization in sensitive individuals, possible contamination with ethylene oxide or 1,4-dioxane from PEG processing, synthetic processing residues
