Despite the widespread consensus on the safety of TiO 2 in cosmetic applications, concerns have recently been raised following the opinion delivered by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in May 2021 on the food grade of TiO 2 called E171, which is also used in cosmetics.
Inhalation & Cancer: The data suggests nanoized titanium dioxide can be inhaled by some mammals, leading to concerns about adverse effects of human inhalation. Existing studies have suggested TiO2 nanoparticles may be more toxic than traditional larger particles of TiO2.
22 Οκτ 2024 · When choosing makeup products with titanium dioxide, it’s important to consider both safety and environmental impact. While agencies like the FDA have deemed it safe for use on the skin, inhaling powdered forms can carry health risks.
concentration up to 25% can be considered not to pose any risk of adverse effects in humans. The SCCS also considered that applications that might lead to inhalation exposure to TiO 2 nanoparticles (such as powders or sprayable products) cannot be considered safe. In 2014, the SCCS provided clarification of the meaning of the term ‘sprayable
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.
18 Αυγ 2020 · The SCCS’s preliminary opinion concluded that use of pigmentary TiO2 up to a maximum concentration of 25% was safe in make-up applications as a loose powder. However, it concluded that use at these concentrations in aerosol sprays for general consumers or hairdressers was not safe.
