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

PEG-100 Stearate

Potential contamination with ethylene oxide or 1,4-dioxane during manufacturing, possible mild gut irritation, synthetic origin, ultra-processed

Fragrance

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, phototoxicity potential

Methylparaben

Potential endocrine disruption, possible estrogenic effects, allergenic reactions in sensitive individuals, bioaccumulation concern

Propylparaben

Potential endocrine disruption, possible hormone mimicry, linked to reproductive toxicity in animal models

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

Palmitic Acid

High intake associated with elevated LDL cholesterol, potential cardiovascular risk with excessive consumption

Benzyl Salicylate

Skin sensitization, mild skin irritation, potential phototoxicity, allergic contact dermatitis

Hexyl Cinnamal

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, mild irritation

Linalyl Acetate

Skin sensitization, mild skin irritation, potential respiratory sensitization

Ethylhexyl Salicylate

Potential skin irritation, allergic reactions, potential endocrine disruption in high doses (based on limited animal studies)

Disodium EDTA

Low irritation potential, possible environmental persistence

Triethoxysilylethyl Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Hexyl Dimethicone

Potential skin irritation or allergic reaction in sensitive individuals, environmental persistence, no nutritional benefits

Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate

Potential skin irritation, limited data on systemic toxicity, unknown effects if ingested

Water

Universal solvent, supports hydration and formulation stability

Hexylresorcinol

Antioxidant properties, antimicrobial effects, used to preserve food color and flavor, potential skin-lightening and anti-inflammatory effects

Allantoin

Skin soothing, promotes wound healing, moisturizes skin, non-irritating

Potassium hydroxide

Effective pH regulator and neutralizer, facilitates texture and stability in formulations

Silica

Prevents clumping and improves texture in powdered products

Hydroxystearic Acid

A hydroxy-substituted C18 saturated fatty acid (most commonly 12-hydroxystearic acid), typically produced from castor/oleic acid derivatives. It is widely used as a rheology modifier, gellant, and emulsifying aid in cosmetics and industrial formulations; it is not commonly used as a direct food ingredient, though related hydroxy fatty acid derivatives (e.g., from castor oil) are present in some approved additives. Available toxicology and cosmetic safety assessments indicate low acute toxicity and low sensitization potential. If ingested, hydroxy fatty acids are expected to be metabolized via standard fatty-acid β-oxidation pathways.

Arachidic Acid

Arachidic acid is a saturated fatty acid also known as eicosanoic acid. It is found naturally in peanut oil, fish oil, and corn oil. In the human body, it can function as an energy source and is also used in the production of complex lipids. Arachidic acid is not considered an essential fatty acid, as the body can synthesize it.
