Product Info:
Titanium Dioxide is a widely used mineral-based UV filter and pigment in cosmetic formulations. It provides broad-spectrum sun protection by reflecting and scattering UVA and UVB rays, making it a key ingredient in sunscreens, BB creams, and other sun-care products. Due to its excellent opacity and brightening properties, it is also used as a whitening agent in makeup, lotions, and skincare products. Titanium Dioxide is a physical sunscreen that sits on the skin's surface without penetration, making it ideal for sensitive skin and baby care formulations.
Formulation Guidelines:
- Best dispersed in oil-based formulations or emulsions.
- Requires proper stabilization to prevent settling in formulations.
- Works well in sunscreens, foundation, and mineral makeup.
- Can be combined with Zinc Oxide for enhanced UV protection.
- Ensure compliance with regulatory guidelines on particle size in formulations.
