What's inside

Titanium Dioxide

Potential carcinogenicity concerns when inhaled as nanoparticles, potential accumulation and persistence, regulatory restrictions in some regions

BHT

Potential for irritation, possible endocrine disruption seen in animal studies, concerns over long-term toxicity though human evidence is limited

Blue 1

Irritation/sensitization potential, regulatory restrictions in some countries

Blue 1 Lake

Irritant potential in sensitive individuals, possible hypersensitivity reactions, synthetic dye with limited metabolic breakdown

Quaternium-90 Bentonite

Not approved for food use, ingestion safety data limited, potential gastrointestinal/mucosal irritation if ingested, contains quaternary ammonium surfactant residues, ultra-processed synthetic additive

Mica

Irritant/sensitizer, contamination risk with heavy metals and crystalline silica, inhalation toxicity if airborne particles are inhaled

Dimethicone Silylate

Potential skin irritation in sensitive individuals, environmental concerns related to silicone persistence

Silica Silylate

Limited long-term safety data, ultra-processed additive, potential for inhalation toxicity in powder form
