1 Μαρ 2024 · This article aims to shed light on the darker aspects of titanium dioxide, particularly its use in cosmetics and the growing concerns linking it to adverse health effects, including cancer ...
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.
22 Οκτ 2024 · Is Titanium Dioxide In Makeup Safe? As discussed earlier, titanium dioxide is generally safe for use in makeup, especially creams and liquid formulations. These forms create a barrier over the skin, offering both protection and color without causing significant irritation or clogging pores.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer designates titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a carcinogen, largely due to studies that have found increased lung cancers due to inhalation exposure in animals.
Finally, SCCS provided an Opinion on TiO2 (nano form) coated with Cetyl Phosphate, Manganese Dioxide or Triethoxycaprylylsilane as UV-filter in dermally-applied cosmetics (SCCS/1580/16). The Opinion confirmed previous assessment: safe use in cosmetics for products intended for application on skin.
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.
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.
