What's inside

Titanium Dioxide

Inhalation toxicity when airborne nanoparticles are inhaled, potential respiratory irritant, classified as possibly carcinogenic by inhalation (IARC Group 2B), limited ingestion toxicity at typical dietary levels, concerns about nanoparticle absorption and accumulation

Polysilicone-11

Not approved for food use, lack of safety data for ingestion, potential toxicity if consumed

Phenyl Trimethicone

Not intended for consumption, potential toxicity if ingested, may accumulate in tissues, unknown long-term oral effects

Linoleic Acid

High omega-6 fatty acid content associated with oxidative instability and potential pro-inflammatory effects at excessive intakes

PEG-10 Dimethicone

Potential for bioaccumulation, possible skin irritation, environmental persistence, unknown long-term ingestion effects, potential impurities (such as 1,4-dioxane) in manufacturing

Sorbitan Sesquioleate

Allergic contact dermatitis, Skin sensitization, Irritation with higher concentrations or occlusion, Potential co-sensitization/cross-reactivity with other sorbitan esters and polysorbates, Emulsifier class concerns for gut microbiota if ingested (preclinical/animal data)

Methyldihydrojasmonate

Skin sensitization, contact allergy, mild skin irritation, potential respiratory sensitization in sensitive individuals

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

Methyl Trimethicone

Potential skin irritation in sensitive individuals, environmental persistence

PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone
