On the basis of safety assessment, the SCCS is of the opinion that the use of pigmentary titanium dioxide (TiO2) up to a maximum concentration of 25% in a typical hair styling aerosol spray product is not safe for either general consumers or hairdressers.
In October 2020 the SCCS confirmed the safety of TiO 2 in a range of cosmetic applications, including face products in loose powder form and hair aerosol spray products. In their latest opinion published on December 2023, SCCS concluded that some types of TiO₂ are subject to additional testing.
What is Titanium Dioxide in Cosmetics? Titanium dioxide in cosmetics; is a white pigment that provides opacity and coverage to skin care products, makeup, and sunscreen. It’s commonly found in powder-based cosmetic formulations, including loose or pressed powders.
13 Απρ 2018 · Titanium dioxide can be both safe and unsafe, depending on its use. When inhaled, titanium dioxide is considered possibly carcinogenic to humans. This means that in products that contain powdered titanium dioxide like loose powders, pressed powders, eyeshadows, and blushes in which the makeup is in powder form, titanium dioxide can be inhaled.
Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is widely used in a variety of products including cosmetics. TiO<sub>2</sub> in its nanoparticle form (nano-TiO<sub>2</sub> ) is now the only form used as an ultraviolet (UV) filter in sunscreens, but also in some day creams, foundations and lip balms.
The Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) considers nano-TiO 2 as a non-sensitizer and as mild- or non-irritant to skin and concludes in no evidence of carcinogenicity (supported by the European Chemicals Agency), mutagenicity or reproductive toxicity after dermal exposure to nano-TiO 2.
