What's inside

Titanium Dioxide

Potential inhalation toxicity as nanoparticle, possible genotoxicity concerns, regulatory restrictions in some jurisdictions for food use

BHT

Potential endocrine disruption, irritant/sensitizer, ingestion toxicity concerns at high doses, possible contamination with reaction byproducts

Paraffin

Irritant potential for skin and eyes upon prolonged contact, contamination risk with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in low-grade grades, inhalation toxicity concerns with combustion byproducts

Aluminum Hydroxide

Potential for localized irritation, contamination with aluminum ions which may accumulate in the body at high exposure, regulatory restrictions in food additive use in some regions

Neopentyl Glycol Diethylhexanoate

Potential skin irritation on sensitive skin, limited inhalation toxicity data, possible bioaccumulation concerns in the environment

Xanthan Gum

Mild gastrointestinal discomfort at high intake, potential for allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
